The Dorper ...

Quote:

The Dorper adapts well to a variety of climatic and grazing conditions. In its native South Africa it has spread from the arid areas to all parts of the republic. It reputably does well in various range and feeding conditions and is also suited to intensive feeding. In Australia, Dorpers are now farmed throughout the arid and tropical areas as well as the high rainfall southern States, thriving even in the extreme cold and wetness of Tasmania.[citation needed] Dorpers can be run as a replacement or with suitable management as a complementary flock to Merinos, particularly as shearing costs continue to rise.

I'll bet 'a citation is needed'. The poor bloody things are forced to live in those awful conditions no matter how miserable they are - just as long as they breed, and don't die before time.

It's the battery hens and Live Exports mentality all over again.

There is less work with Dorpers, no crutching or mulesing required.
They are bred for meat instead of wool so no shearing needed.

Listen to Sam -

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

I didn't read that far - sounds good. The perfect sheep. I'm surprised they don't prepare the cutlets to save the farmers the trouble.

Good video.

He came from a LONG way behind to almost pip your nag at the post. So I'd shut up and sit quietly in the corner for a while, if I were you.

Reply #20 - Jul 13^th, 2016 at 6:57pm I will never understand why rural people vote The Nationals, over so many better independents or The Australia Party. The Nationals have shown time and time again they are willing to screw rural people for their Liberal overlords.

Ask the same question, again, when you MATURE in 5 years or so, and decide to live in a Country Town.

They aren't all "hayseeds".

I used to live rural, again, I'll never understand why people vote for a party that has shown time and time again it does jack poo for rural people and more often than not, screws them for their Liberal overlords, over good rural parties like The Australia Party.

The Nationals are bad and you should feel bad for supporting them.

So you are one of those GREENIE voters? Eventually, you will mature and marry and have children .... are you saying that you want The Government to pay you to LIVE and raise your offspring? Isn't that rather Socialist? What you have belongs to ME too?

Reply #25 - Jul 13^th, 2016 at 7:18pm Seriously, can the Lib/Nat supporters on this forum ever actually engage in debate without resorting to strawmen and ad hominems? "ARE YOU A SOCIALIST!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!" Go back to 1950s McCarthy, the cold war is long over.
