2025 New Armatree Sire Team

​

​Key points

​​​

• All sires in the team have been through a rigorous selection process both for physical and genetic traits.​​​

• All sires have been selected to add to our breeding objective.  ​​

• All sires have been genotyped. This is particularly important for when we are choosing young rams so that we have higher accuracy ASBVs to select on at a younger age.​​

• Physical criteria that sires entering our team must conform on include:

  • Teeth and Jaws – these have to be correct even as an adult

  • Feet and Toes – Short, Sharp toes that require little to no maintenance

  • A balanced wool style  - this is a trait important to the first-cross ewe buyer
