Geeze! What are they feeding them at that feedlot? Straight butter? I've never heard of Blackbellys reaching that weight. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of James Gagnon Sent: Sunday, December 29, 2002 9:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [blackbelly] weight gains Hello list.   I was communicating with a breeder or bbb that was mentioning that his lambs weighed 100 lbs at 8 months in a feedlot situation.  Do most of you think that your bbb sheep would reach such weights.  This person said their ewes weighed 160 to 180 lbs and the rams 200 to220 lbs.  Is this what your sheep weigh. Would their be some demand for such sheep polled stock of course.   James
