2007 Virginia Ram Test

 

Virginia Tech is a long-time consignor to the Virginia Ram Lamb Performance Test.  The Virginia Ram Test has a long and storied history, and has served the industry in the region very well by supplying functional rams to commercial flocks.  Below is a list of the Suffolk and Dorset rams consigned by Virginia Tech.

These rams will sell at the 2007 Virginia Ram Lamb Performance Test Sale on Saturday, August 25 at 1:00 PM.  The sale will be held at the Virginia Sheep Evaluation Station at the Shenandoah Valley AREC outside Steeles Tavern, VA.

For more information on the performance of these and other rams, or for a sale catalog, please contact Scott Greiner, sgreiner@vt.edu.
