duane-1

Duane is a 2019 ram lamb, bred out of Pitbull and and a Misty Oaks ewe. His dam is a great mother and has been a consistent twin lamb producer for us.He impressed us with his good growth and parasite resistance and he brings really high milk production from his mothers side.

​

His EBVs for growth are excellent with weaning weight (WWT) and post weaning weight (PWWT) in the top 4%. He has good parasite resistance with weaning fecal egg count (WFEC) and post weaning fecal egg count (PFEC) in the top 35%. His MWWT (measure of milk production and mothering of his daughters) is in the top 4%,

Percentile Summary

The Radar Chart below provides an overview of where the sire EBVs are ranked on the NSIP percentile report. The 100th band is the top performing and 0th band is the bottom performing, the 50th band is the median. What is best depends on what you are looking for and what the performance of your ewes are, e.g. we do not try to maximize the NLB (number of lambs born), the 10th percentile of NLB results in about a 200% lambing rate, very high NLB is hard to support in a 100% grass/forage management system.
