Why weigh sheep

Regular weights pay their way in dosing, feeding and sale timing.

Weight is a key indicator of health in sheep. Tracked over time, it shows which animals to treat, which to breed from and when a mob is ready to sell.

Dose to the actual weight

Many livestock medications are dosed by weight. Accurate weights mean the correct dose, with no wasted product.

Feed for the gain

Track weight gain or loss and adjust the feeding program to suit, for more efficient use of feed.

Pick the best breeders

Accurate weight data identifies the best-performing animals, for the genetic improvement of the flock.

Sell on accurate weights

Online auction markets ask for accurate digital weights, and selling direct means weighing before dispatch.
