We have had a dry spell here in Candelo but this morning, after 6 months of no rain we tipped 26mm out of the guage and we have chances of showers again today and tomorrow as well. A huge relief and hopefully we will see some pasture rejuvenation over the next few weeks. After the rainfall overnight the sheep are looking beautiful and clean again and this Bega Valley ewe caught my eye when out feeding today. Great shedding pattern from the top down, good stance, solid black nose and feet, this is a 2025 maiden ewe and is what we have been breeding towards. Looking to next season we have invested some of the best AW genetics this year with 7 new stud ewes, unfortunately we missed out on the new stud ram we were after but will try again in the new year. We have some terrific young rams coming on and with ewes like this in the pipeline and some rain overnight I can't wait to see what we can produce next year.

What a day. After watching the Tattykeel Australian White auction on Auctions Plus for years we finally made time to go in person. If you had to use a single word to sum the day up it would be impressive. Such a well set up sale barn, an impressive array of stud and commercial rams as well as stud ewes all set in beautiful green countryside. Terrific catering and a very helpful and generous team behind it all. We purchased 3 great new stud ewes, all scanned in lamb to Tattykeel 250142 to join our stud team here at Bega Valley Australian Whites. These ewes are due to lamb early November so we are very much looking forward to then. A livestock auction experience unlike any other and hope we can return next year. Ewes have landed safely in Candelo and are happily ensconced in our little irrigated poddy paddock.

Stud lambing tagging and 1st vaccinations were completed a few days ago. These are some this years stud ewe lambs that will be a very welcome addition to our breeding program next year. The oldest lambs are now 7 weeks old with the youngest just just 2 weeks.

The first day of spring and the peach and nectarine blossoms have made an appearance. A great time of year.

The new stud ewes purchased at the Doonkami Australian Whites sale last week seem happy to be finally back in a paddock after 3 days of travelling and being in yards. Scott drove about 10 hours from Doonkami down to Yass and we drove 3 and a half hours from Candelo to meet up and transfer the ewes. Amazingly after all that travel we arrived just 5 minutes apart. Ewes have now made it safely to Bega Valley, they had a drench and emptied out overnight before making it to a paddock this morning. Thanks again to Scott Baker from Doonkami for delivering them down south for us, it was much appreciated.

The Doonkami Australian Whites annual sale was held today with a lineup of beautiful stud ewes that were hard to go past. We purchased what we think are four of the best, 2 of them being daughters and the other 2 grand daughters of the $240,000 Platinum Tattykeel 210184. Looking forward to their arrival at Bega Valley Australian Whites and many thanks to Scott and his team at Doonkami Australian Whites.

A bit surprised and very pleased with our commercial ewes this year, I was thinking a few weeks back that lambing % seemed a bit down. Well the results are in. All our commercial ewes lambed in just 30 days, lambs were marked, tagged and vaxxed over the weekend and we marked 152%. These ewes were not scanned but known losses were about 11%. This is a pretty good for us and we are chuffed with the result. Would be interested to hear what other breeders think.

Nothing green here for these 6 year old commercial ewes and their lambs but doing ok with some supplementary pellets every day. Lambing % seems a bit down so far this year but may surprise us come marking time.
