Appendix breeding program

​Australia has some amazing genetics but due to our strict Quarantine Rules breeders are not able to import new bloodlines.
Because of this breed societies recognizing the need for appendix flocks  have added separate appendix registries to give the stud breeders the opportunity to add in new valuable genetics by selecting a good foundation base line and breeding up back thru the Appendix rulings gives us the ability to improve upon the existing bloodlines.
