You aren’t alone. I just got the rough data set and a verbal explanation of how it was sampled. I was lucky to be privy to the battle of the bios. Let’s just say MT FWP is still undefeated. They are going to hang their hat hard on this data. I’m really surprised you guys don’t have it yet. -

I bet 482 and 680 will be next. My wife’s parents have a small hobby flock and when I brought up m. Ovi concerns you would have thought I slandered there daughter. “There’s no evidence domestic sheep give that to bighorns!”🤦♂️.

One man’s waste is another’s lifeline. Some people need social security right now. The lack of empathy from some of you is pretty major turnoff but it’s easy to be an internet gangsta so I expect in person you guys are likely much better people- rogerthat
