Our flock of 39 Polypay ewes has 20 ewes in the top 25 percent of all Polypays in NSIP. When you put ewes like this with rams
that are in the top 10 percent of the breed, you have very good production. If there is a specific area, you wish too emphasize,
contact us and we'll tell you what we can do to help you meet those needs.
The Polypay ewe with the lowest Composite Index is a ewe with 13 lambs born and 13 lambs weaned in 4 lambings at 3 1/2
years of age. She raised quads on her own as a 2 year old and as a 3 year old. Than she went on to raise triplets August lambs
in her third year. Her last quads had a 120 day adjusted litter weight of 372 pounds. Therefore, I think she has earned a place
in our flock and that is why she has a number of daughters and granddaughters in our flock.
Here is production information on R023, one of our higher indexing ewes.
