how Alan?

Rusty - do you want to accept questions throughout the webinar or only at the end. I'll announce that with the welcome.

I don’t mind taking them during the webinar if they are relevant. I’ll keep an eye on the chat box but if I don’t see a good question, feel free to interrupt me.

Okay -I'll let you monitor that for the most part, I'll keep an eye out as well.

I would say if you are not actively speaking to mute

Ok, we're good on facebook.

Is this being recorded so I can go back and watch parts I missed?

Yes! It's being recorded and will be avialable on the website and possibly our Facebook page!

Perfect! Thanks, I'm super excited to be starting with NSIP early in my program :) This will be my secound year submitting data. Thanks for putting this on!

The following link shows how the out of pocket cost of NSIP can be covered by additional ram sales due to EBVs:https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9ZhrGdMpMBTY0Z1ODRabUtZdG8.

I have seen your Facebook and think you’re on the right path and look forward watching your progress

Carcass Plus is a great tool to make progress in both growth AND muscle at the same time. Most breeders use the index as the primary criteria especially if they are selling lambs on the rail or are rewarded for carcass merit. Some commercial producers focus only on growth if they are only selling based on live weight.

For Matt- you stated grass into protien, what is your ration of grass to grain use?

sixteen digit NSIP number can now be put on registration papers.

Q & A -How would it affect my data if I do not record birth weights?

I never have sent in birth weights on my flock.

Thanks, Randy! At one point we were up to 50 between Zoom access and Facebook live.

How much does it cost to join NSIP and how are you billed

How are multiple lambings per year handled?

Is NLB adjusted to out of season lambing

Your welcome, Randy!!

Thanks everyone for tuning in!
