This female has been a standout since she was born in 2006. We lost her mother in early 2009 at 11 years old after being bred to Direct Hit for the 4th time in a row, a rarity here. Another one of our best females is a Direct Hit daughter out of 56, her tag is 73, and time will tell how quickly she will be featured as a donor. This is the full sister 68, who was sold successfully to Ashley Balsley at the 2008 Premier Bred Ewe Sale, full sister to 71 who is being offered at the 2009 Bred Ewe Sale, mother of 9209 sold at Midwest Elite for $1,950 to Mike Kidd, and mother of 9208 who was sold for $3,250 to Audrey Neal at the 2009 Premier 10 and ended up Reserve Hampshire at the 2009 Ohio State Fair.
56 is one of those really special ewes to have around, and we anticipate lambing the 10 eggs she flushed bred to Big Easy around January 22nd, 2010, and have her bred back the same way a couple weeks later. |
