Sheep's eye view of Australia native weeping grass.
Why do some buy seed & sow introduced grasses when we have this?

The wether lambs will soon enjoy this Warrego summer grass - another under-rated Australian native grass that bounds away with summer rain. Thanks to Tex the border collie/kelpie for scale.

Some of the wether lambs doing what they do best - grazing & growing.

Beautiful day there.

@Goimbla I must ask whether the wether could weather the weather.

@Goimbla niiiice ! I thought you aussies were only raising "Merinos" breed, but they don't look like it. What are they?
Show threadGoimblaMar 23
@berru Thanks! They're Wiltipolls (polled Wiltshire Horn) - a very quiet shedding sheep breed. I'd have Merinos if I had a shearing shed - I love wool & working with Merinos.

@Goimbla Hooo, a shedding breed!
I also love wool, but I really can't do anything with it. So I shear! That counts a wool-working right? 😜

@Goimbla fantastic fodder and fairly resilient to heavy grazing I believe. Not especially good in dry times though

@Goimbla I give up...
