current sires
Old Munbilla Dorpers is proud of its most recent purchase at the Nyngan Dorper and White Dorper Sale. Whynot 220119 is well balanced with very sound structure. His grandsire is a Dell ram by the exceptional Whynot 130186. That link to our bloodlines (we used Whynot 130186 extensively), and the successful Dell genetics is a real attraction for us. 220119’s Maternal Carcase Production (MCP) score of 145 is in the top 20% of shedding breeds and Eye Muscle Depth (PEMD) is in the top 10%. These outstanding performance EBVs come in a medium sized ram of 92 kgs at 15 months. His outstanding conformation and meat is backed up by an independent Classimate classification of 9.71. Critical for us, his conformation is reflected in his excellent feet! This trait is vital to delivering a ‘low maintenance’ animal that does not need foot trimming when produced outside arid and semi-arid areas. Good feet has been a key focus of our selection throughout the nearly 20 years of Old Munbilla our dorpers but can prove a challenge when introducing an outside sire. We know Mark at ‘Whynot Dorpers’ also places a very high priority on this trait. We have seen 220119 among his peers and know he is in the top echelon of his drop.
In purchasing Whynot 220119 from Mark we are essentially getting the best of the best in terms of foot quality and his Lambplan figures speak for themselves in terms production and carcase quality traits. |

PREVIOUS SIRES
Whynot 'Marco' - By Amarula 'Crusty' a sire with outstanding depth and structure. Thank you to Mark Gett of Whynot dorpers for loaning us this outstanding sire for a joining in 2021. The quality of the Whynot rams is confirmed with each and every appearance at the Eastern Region and National Dorper sales in Dubbo. Whynot consistently produces among the best toplines in the industry. This together with Mark's intolerance for foot, pastern and shoulder issues matches perfectly with our philosophy in breeding dorpers and has the added benefits of very strong lambPlan figures.
Amarula 'Ollie' 208886 - purchased at Amarula's February 2022 sale. Sold as a Type 5 Conformation 5 ram assessed by Christo Harmse. Ollie is by Amarula Flynn who was sold for $40,000 at the same sale. Ollie was used as a stud sire by Amarula. Flynn is by Whynot sire 'Dave'. Ollie has excellent depth, great temperament and excellent lambPlan figures with a Maternal Carcase Production score of 138 which is just outside the top 10 % of shedding breeds. Ollie has a stronger hair covering which should compliment the cover of Bulmar Swahili progeny in our ewe flock.
Bulmar 170143 - Type 5 ram, purchased in 2019 from the Peak Hill sale this ram has Kaya bloodlines.
He has length and capacity with excellent bone and muscling and we are very confident he will complement the strengths of our flock.

Whynot 130186 'Grumpy' - Type 4 sire. Used for his outstanding length, topline and an excellent hindquarter after successful terms as a stud sire at "Bellevue", "Whynot" and "Dell" studs. His soundness and longevity continue to be born out by his agility as a stud sire at 8 years old. He is also a clean shedder. Grumpy's last drop was in late 2021. His son Munbilla 202191 is one of the best he has bred for us. The quality of that ram and the genetics of his sire and grand sire has seen Mark Gett purchase 202191 at the Eastern Region Sale for $5000. We also expect 202191 to leave a positive mark at Old Munbilla where his excellent width, muscling and cover should compliment our Bulmar 'Swahili' ewes.
Whynot 140160 'Neville' - Type 5 ram, a very long, full shedding ram from a successful drop of the Gett family Whynot Stud. We were particularly keen to boost the body length of our flock and chose Whynot for the consistent quality of their rams in recent years which was recognised at the 2015 National Sale with rams topping at $12,000.
This is our second Whynot sire and is by a son of Global 'Bradman' and also has strong Bellevue genetics.
Neville was one of very few rams from this drop typed by Philip van Schalkwyk as type 5.
