In this episode I take the podcast from our sheep yards to our kitchen table with Geoff Davey! We sit down and record a pre-dinner sheep podcast after scanning sheep and selling a few sheep during our day together at Hallston Valley Farm. We find out that spending all day with sheep is a normal day for Geoff and that is just the way he likes it!

Together we explore:

What is muscle scanning in sheep?

Why do we muscle scan our sheep? 

Benefits of scanning your sheep

Eye muscle heritability and total eye muscle area getting to know the meat ratio to weight 

What do we scale for?

Selecting and culling in figures 

How to use the data for sire/ram evaluation and sire selection 

Making decisions with muscle scanning data 

How much fat should you looking for on your sheep in millimetres?

How to significantly improve your flock in just three of four generations
