Terrick Merino Stud was founded in 1896, on the property, Terrick Terrick in the Blackall district of Central Western Queensland. While not in its original location, today, the stud has stood the test of time and continues to improve and be a force in the contemporary and changing wool industry in Queensland.
The stud was founded by the Australian Estates and Mortgage Co. Ltd. when they selected 850 ewes from 99,155 ewes of the Terrick Terrick flock which, together with the property, the company purchased from D.S. Wallace.
Up until 1916, rams were purchased from Boonoke, F. No. 7, Wanganella Estate, F. No. 84, Lucerndale, F. No. 202, Eli Elwah, F. No. 34, Bundemar, F. No. 11, Deniliquin Stud Park North, F.
