You get about 50% or less on sheep.  Are you sure they're only 100 pounds? 
What breed are they?  Youngest's February lambs weigh about 140-150 pounds. 
I can give you the exact weights on Wednesday but 100 pounds sounds light. 
These two weighted in at 102 and 108 pounds May 19th at 4 months.  The 
wether
