04.01.2022 Client Testimonial: Gavin and Ali Thorne Managers at Eagle Park, Bangham SA At Eagle Park we have been using Dohne and Charollais rams from K.D. sheep studs for 4 years. We have noticed a huge improvement across all lambing ewes but in our maiden ewes especially with successful lambing with out human intervention compared to other crossbred breeds. Both of the above breeds weve noticed have lighter birth weights but lambs hit the ground and achieve quick, solid growth rates. We have just weaned 130% lambs from the Dohnes and 132% from ewes mated to Charollais rams, prior to using KD rams we were struggling to achieve 100% at weaning. Our 2019 born ewes are lambing now. We cant speak highly enough of the breeding and professionalism and support from Kym and his team.

02.01.2022 70 Charollais and Composite Rams up for sale this Monday 14th Sept. I am excited about what these rams are producing, your ewes, especially your maiden ewes will be more relieved when their lambs are delivered with ease. No more pulled hammies or lambies Catalogues are on kdsheepstuds.com.au

02.01.2022 Come and see the 2020 sale team at our on farm inspection day on Friday 28th of August.
