It really depends on the breed, the genetics within that breed that the individual sheep has, the condition/health of the sheep and how much it has been fed, and the target weight the farmer has chosen - a farmer is required to have a STEADY, CONSTANT product, meaning that he doesn't want to sell sheep that all have different weights.

Usually, ~56kg for a prime lamb enterprise. As carcass weight is only ~40% of the live animal weight, this would result in a carcass of 24kg.
