We judged the operational progeny performance test's daily gain data of 299 purebred progenies of 16 German meat merino kind stud rams with Harvey's LSML program, application with father model. Judged parameters were: weanling weight, fattened weight, end weight (in kg), weight gain data during rearing, fattening and daily weight gain (in g/day). The calculated hereditary values were higher than in discover literature. The h2 value of the weight gain was 0.73 during the rearing, while during the fattening 0.76. The h2 value of the weanling weight was 0.71, h2 value of fattened weight was 0.89 during the examination period. These results are explained that the individuals got in father's half-sib groups on the examination. Dams produce in one of the best pedigree breeding of domestic German meat merino population the place of the examination and in given examination environment. The rearing and livestock of the examined lambs were among standard conditions during the examination period in the operational performance testing and operational progeny performance test. The effect of the ram was certified measuring on the examined quality, significant differences were experienced among their breeding values in the all examined qualities. During rearing and fattening performance of domestic and import rams' progeny were different.
