CALGA HISTORY

2002 The Calga Dohne stud started with 50 pregnancies and followed with 50 more six

months later, initially working closely with Macquarie Artificial Breeders (MAB) to

expand the flock to its present number of 1100 Pure bred breeding age ewes.

2004 Calga’s early confidence in the Dohne was measured by the $20,000 Australian

record price paid for the proven No 1 ranked sire in Australia, Macquarie MD03 0681 at

the National Dohne sale at Dubbo in October 2004.

2007 In October 2007 Calga purchased a further 3 rams at the Adelaide Dohne Sale

from the Mt Alma Stud in South Australia . Calga bought the top sale ram at $9,000.

The ram was very correct with good body length and a 124.1 index. The other rams were

purchased at $4,500 and $3,200 with the trio averaging $5,567. Mt Alma has a

partnership with the Sudiplass Stud South Africa. Sudiplass is the worlds biggest Dohne

Stud with over 5,000 ewes. Calga also purchased 1 ram from Macquarie Stud and 1 ram

from Uardry Stud at the Dubbo National Sale.

2009 In November Calga paid $22,000 Australian Dohne record price paid for the

Uardry UD080270 ram which was an Australian Dohne record price.

At the 2009 Elmore Field Days Calga also purchased a ram from the Macquarie Dohne

Stud and a ram from the Uardry Dohne Stud.

CALGA HISTORY

2010 Calga purchased 255 ewes from Ian and Julie Hanna of Koobelup Dohne Stud

Western Australia. Calga purchased the top priced ram for $18,000 from the South

Australian Potari Dohnes total dispersal sale. The 2006 drop ram weighed in at 126

kilograms, had an index of 140, a fleece weight of 12.2pc above the national average and

eye muscle depth 0.8pc above the average.

2011 At the annual ram sale Calga sold 92 were at an average of $1448.00. Top Price

of $6,500 bought by the Midgery Dohne stud Walgett Stud Master David Berrell

CA102509 had an Index 128.1 and was sired by CA081361 he is a very correct ram with

a well nourished wool showing excellent crimp definition. Anthony Skinner from

Goorianawa station Baradine bought 23 rams with top price of $3400 averaging $1710.

Malcolm and Henry Webb from Miagunyah Warrumbungles bought 18 rams with Top

price $2300 averaging $1160.

2012 At the annual Calga ram sale 92 rams were sold at an average of $1,313 with a

total of $120,800. Although the average was down $100 on last year it was a good result

considering the dry conditions and the decline in the wool and lamb market in recent

months. In December at the Uardry Disperal Sale, Calga purchased 740 Dohne stud

ewes. These ewes have been joined to Uardry Dohne rams and the lambs will be up for

sale in 2014. Calga also purchased the Uardry Dohne Stud brand.

Catalogue information

Identity: The sheep’s identity detail indicates the Registered Flock (2 or 3 letter prefix),

the year of drop (the first two numbers), followed by the tag number (4 numbers).

The sheep’s sire and dam, birth date, and the number in the birth are listed after the sheep’s

identity. The sire and dam plus the birth details are taken into account when calculating

each sheep’s ASBVs and Index.

Note: When a registered Dohne is purchased the seller, on request, is required to give

the buyer the sheep’s Flock Book Certificate as proof of the Dohne QA and

performance.

Final Grade: There are 4 Final Grades, R, C, UR and P. A ram with an R grade is high

quality commercial flock or stud ram. Sheep with a C (Cull), UR (Unregistered) or P

(Pending) Grade cannot be sold for breeding.

Index: A sheep’s Index is the combined value for measured traits in the Dohne Breeding

Objective. An Index Value of 100 is the average performance of the year 2000 Drop

Registered Dohne progeny. Numbers above 100 are higher performing. A value of 125 and

above is at the higher end (top 50%) of the present drop – see the table on the following page.

Trait ASBVs: On the following page each individual ASBV trait is described. In general an

ASBV describes the expected performance of a Dohne sheep’s progeny. Each measured trait

is reported as a Dohne ASBV (as a deviation from the Dohne Registered flocks’ average

performance of the 2000 drop progeny – the average is expressed as 0.0).

As a commercial breeder how can I relate a ram’s ASBV to my flock’s performance?

1. Ask a local Dohne breeder how a Dohne flock will perform on your property.

2. Relative to this flock performance define your flock’s breeding objective for each trait,

e.g. reduce FD relative to the general Dohne performance.

3. Select rams for the stated breeding objective, e.g., rams with an ASBV finer than

average, that is, ASBVs that have a negative value (finer) than 0.0.

You’re Benchmark – the current Dohne standard

A guide to the performance of a registered Dohne relative to the current Dohne breed standard (2012 drop – the most recent drop) is reported in the table below.

For example, if a Dohne ram (or ewe) has a yearling Bodyweight (WT) ASBV of 4.9 this

sheep is in the highest 20% for WT when compared with the current Dohne standard. That is

they have a higher WT then the 20% band (4.7%). The ram is not in the highest 10% as they

would need to have an ASBV of 5.4 or higher. In this context “highest” means the extreme end

of performance for a trait; it does not indicate “best” as best is defined by a breeder’s objective.

Traits names and the trait description

WT: Rams with a positive ASBV for bodyweight (WT) will produce lambs that grow faster

and reach their target weights sooner. A ram that has a WT of 4.4 will generally breed progeny

that are genetically 2.2kg heavier than those of a ram with a WT ASBV of 0.0 (zero).

EMD: Rams with a higher ASBV for eye muscle depth (EMD) will produce lambs that have a

higher lean meat yield. A ram that has a EMD of 0.8 mm will breed progeny that genetically

have a 0.4 mm deeper eye muscle area than a ram with an EMD ASBV of 0.0 (zero).

Fat: Rams with a lower fat depth (Fat) ASBV will produce lambs that are leaner at the same

weight. A ram with a negative Fat ASBV means that his progeny are leaner than those sired by

a ram with a positive Fat ASBV.

CFW: Rams with a higher ASBV for clean fleece weight (CFW) will produce progeny that

cut more wool. A ram that has a CFW of 2.6% will breed progeny that genetically cut 1.3%

more wool than progeny of a ram with a CFW ASBV of 0.0 (zero).

FD: Rams with a lower fibre diameter (FD) ASBVs are finer. A ram with an ASBV of -2.4

will breed progeny that are genetically -1.2 microns finer than those of a ram with a FD of 0.0.

CV: Rams with a lower ASBV for fibre diameter coefficient of variation (CV) will produce

progeny that have less variation in FD in their fleece. A ram with an ASBV of -1.2% will

generally breed progeny that are genetically -0.6% lower CV than those of a ram with a CV

ASBV of 00 (zero). A lower CV% is associated with higher staple strength.

The Dohne index value (Dual Purpose 9%) is a summary of the sheep’s performance for

measured traits. A ram with a higher index value will breed progeny that are more suited to the

Dohne Objective.

Dohne Genetic Performance Information

The Dohne breeding system

Dohne ram breeders and commercial producers are obtaining a major improvement in the

breeding progress and commercial returns from their flock by using the Dohne Genetic

Performance system.

When Dohne Genetic Performance is combined with the Dohne Classers Grading system

the breed has the most advanced across-flock sheep breed evaluation system in Australia.

Dohne Genetic Performance information is focused on maximising $dollar returns for

commercial sheep producers while the Dohne Classers Grading system ensures

conformation, quality and type standards are maintained. No other breed offers its

members and their commercial clients the quality assurance and ability to make across-

flock assessments. The system has been developed to maximise the standard and genetic

improvement of all breeders’ flocks.

Breeding progress could be as much as 50% greater if genetic performance records are used

efficiently. Even larger gains are possible when breeders use the benefit that comes from all

Registered Dohne ram breeding flocks being linked together thus allowing more accurate

selections from the best genetics available.

When commercial meat and wool producers buy Dohne rams they have a guaranteed and

easy to use genetic improvement service. All Dohne ram breeders are required to use and

provide to their clients their sale rams Genetic Performance and Assessors Grade in a

standard format.

Dohne genetic performance records – Australian Sheep Breeding Values (ASBV)

ASBV are calculated by “Sheep Genetics” and describes the expected performance of the

progeny of a sheep, not just the performance of the sheep itself. An ASBV therefore describes

the breeding value of the sheep – and as a breeder isn’t that what you want to know?

Dohne ram breeders produce ASBVs for major measured performance traits, including the traits

required to record – weaning and yearling weight, and muscle depth, fat depth, fleece weight,

fibre diameter and CV of fibre diameter.

Dohne ASBV performance is based on the measured evaluation made by the ram breeder. The

measurement is then value added by accounting for factors that breeders recognise can improve

the ability of measured information to describe a sheep’s breeding value. Factors accounted for

include the trait heritability, if the sheep was a twin or single, date of birth of the lamb, the

sheep’s pedigree (relative’s) performance and difference in environment between groups.

Pedigree performance records allow all Dohne ASBVs to be reported across-years and across-

flocks. The result is that the performance of all Dohnes from large and small, old and new,

Registered Dohne ram breeding flocks can be directly compared.

Dohne ASBV describes the expected performance of the sheep’s progeny for a trait

relative to the performance of all Registered Australian Dohne ram breeding flocks.

The Dohne Index – Dual Purpose (emphasis on meat and wool) 9% Micron Premium

The Dohne Index (Dual Purpose 9% MP) summarises into one number the performance of a sheep for measured traits – weaning and yearling bodyweight, muscle depth, fat depth, reproduction, fleece weight, fibre diameter and CV of fibre diameter. This summary value of all the traits simplifies and improving the accuracy of selections.

Most up to date and accurate performance It is the intention of this catalogue to present the most up to date and accurate performance ASBVs and index values to assist buyers in their choice of animals. To achieve this, the ASBVs and index values presented in this catalogue are taken from the most recent breed analysis that all sheep were included in. The ASBVs and index values presented may vary from the time of the Dohne was registered after its 365 Day assessment. The difference between the ASBVs and index values registration and those presented in this catalogue, reflect improvement in accuracy of the ASBVs as a result of more performance information from relatives being added into the Dohne analysis.

The Australian Dohne Breeders Association (who own the database), NSW DPI (who manage the database) and Sheep Genetics who conduct the analysis do not collect the information used in the analysis and therefore are not responsible for the ASBVs and index values reported.
