Welcome Collinsville Emperor 395
Welcome Emperor 395 purchased for $115,000 from Collinville Stud, SA. The ram has a real elite lustrous wool with a big carcase and we are all about quick maturity and trying to get wether lambs off. We are looking forward to introducing these elite genetics to our Stud and valued clients through an extensive AI program and can’t wait to see the progeny on farm. Congratulations to Tim Dalla and the team at Collinsville Stud Merinos for breeding such a magnificent ram.
Emperor 395 carries a 20.6 micron fleece with a standard deviation of 3.1 percent, a coefficient of variation of 15pc and 99.4 comfort factor. He is a May 2020 drop and is sired by Collinsville Stud Sire, Emperor 351.

“395 is just an exceptional poll sire, the best poll ram we’ve ever bred, with great purity in the head, perfect polled factor.”
“395 has 11 months of wool on him and is a 2-year-old shed-prepared ram. His dad cut 18 kilograms when shorn the week of Bendigo, so we would expect 395 to cut similar – 18-20kgs full wool.”

“Emperor 395 is an outstanding Poll Merino ram. He’s a rare type that doesn’t come along all that often. His meaty frame and terrific handling wool with excellent coverage sets him apart. It’s rare to have both coverage and high-quality wool with incredible structure and frame on a sheep.”
