I need to do some worming and I don't have access to a weigh crate so I need to guess weights    It is for my Gotland x Shetland ewes and tup. I sent some 18month old wethers off for slaughter last month and they came back as between 26 and 30kgs hot weight. Any ideas based on this?

I would take their weight as around 60kgs easy. Mine are big, especially the singles I had last year. they came back as 26kgs deadweight at 18months old, if I remember correctly.

It is better to slightly over-dose than under-dose, I am usually quite generous with my pure Shetlands. Wormers have quite a large safe margin.
