How to select a ram fit for purpose?
Important: The Pedigree Information printed in this catalogue is as supplied by or on
behalf of the breeder. The responsibility for the accuracy of the information therefore
rests solely with the breeder and not Sheep Ireland.
Evaluations should
never be the only tool you use when selecting animals for breeding.
Animals must also be examined to ensure the animal is also physically correct; an animal that
is not physically correct (ie. mouth, feet, etc.) cannot compensate for this fault regardless of its
evaluation and should be avoided for breeding purposes.
·
Each star represents where the animal ranks on each index in 20% bounds
·
One star represents the bottom 20% of the breed for that trait
·
Five star represents the top 20% of the breed for that trait
·
The higher the stars, the higher the predicted profitability of that animal
Rank
·
This figure indicates more precisely where the animals rank within the breed. eg. Top 11%
(see example below)
·
This is displayed with the black pointer, the further to the right these are on the scale, the
better its position with the breed.
Animals that only have the outline of a star represent animals that have within flock evaluations,
this means the star rating of these animals can not be compared to any other animals from a
different flock.

RamSearch.ie
The Sheep Ireland Online Ram search is also available at ramsearch.ie, you can use this tool to get the most up to date evaluations for a ram, to search for rams by county, breed and current evaluation ratings.
Acc % (Accuracy%)
· This figure is very important as it represents the amount of data behind each evaluation. Where Acc is low, much less emphasis should be placed on the evaluation, and vice versa.
· This is displayed with the grey pointer, the further to the right these are on the scale, the more information this evaluation is based on. e.g. Acc 43% (see example on previous page)
Indexes & Traits
1) Replacement (€1.126) – If a farmer desires a ram to breed both lambs both for slaughter and replacement ewe lambs then they should select a ram based on this index. The bulk of this index is a combination of Lamb Survivability, Days to Slaughter, No. of lambs born & Daughters milk. The
€ value beside the index represents the difference in profit that each lamb sired from this ram will have.
2) Terminal (€0.542) – If a farmer desires a ram to breed only lambs for slaughter then they should select a ram based on this index. The bulk of this index is a combination of Lamb Survivability and Days to Slaughter. The € value beside the index represents the difference in profit that each lamb sired from this ram will have.
3) Lamb Survivability – This ranks animals based on lambing ease and lamb survival rate. Every positive % point on this index is an extra lamb surviving to 40 days and vice versa.
4) Days to Slaughter – This ranks animals on their genetic ability to grow. The index associated with this trait represents the difference in the predicted number of days required for the progeny of this ram to reach the desired slaughtered weight compared with other animals of the same breed.
5) No. of Lambs Born – This ranks animals based on the predicted prolificacy of the females from this animal compared with other animals of the same breed.
6) Daughters Milk – This ranks animals based on the predicted milking performance of their daughters compared with other animals of the same breed.
