A and M Flock

A and M Flock raises Dorper sheep in Goldthwaite, TX, in Central Texas near Austin. It has several years of experience breeding Dorper sheep and follows recommended health testing protocols for the breed. Its flock thrives on open pastures with a focus on early socialization and gentle handling.

Inside well-ventilated barn shelters and shaded paddocks, lambs stay comfortable and protected through hot summers and cool winters. Owner Adrian Melendez draws on family ranching traditions and community ties to maintain a sustainable, pasture-based approach. They participate in local shepherd guilds and regional fairs to stay current on best husbandry practices and support the broader farming community. Visitors often remark on the farm’s peaceful, rolling pastures and the healthy condition of both ewes and lambs. Year-round breeding helps maintain a reliable lamb supply suited to a variety of climates and management plans.
