Keri-Keri Surplus Ewe Sale
Unfortunately due to our continued drought conditions - Keri Keri won't have any ewes in the 2008 Swan Hill Blue Ribbon Sale, scheduled for 23rd October 2008.
The season hasn't improved at all & this development is out of our control. To discuss ewe sales please contact Andrew on (03) 5034 0591.

Semen Sires
Ram Keri-Keri 5046 is currently at Riverina Genetics having semen collected - his semen will be qualified for domestic & export use. Details & photos of this new semen sire will be loaded onto the website shortly.
Our other semen sires are still available for viewing at Semen Sales.


Keri-Keri sheep have proved themselves – naturally. During the 2002/2003 drought only weaners were fed a basic maintenance ration – all adult sheep had to survive on their own. They survive and thrive in a fully natural habitat of extreme plains conditions.

This success is due to the fact that the first priority in selecting sheep on Keri-Keri is “survival”. We have experienced below average to drought seasons since 1989. It has been a great opportunity to see how the sheep performed under harsh conditions.

Since the early 1970’s Keri-Keri has used “dual purpose” to describe our sheep. The term now is widely used and old fashioned. The Keri sheep are “profit purpose”, which better describes their abilities.
