Drake

Drake breeds Dorper sheep in Leeton, MO, in west central Missouri near Kansas City. Drake has been working with Dorper sheep under mentor shepherds for several years and follows American Dorper Association breed standards, with all lambs receiving routine veterinary health checks and genetic screenings. Feed consists of regional hay mixes supplemented with mineral blends selected to support hoof and coat health.

The flock grazes on rotational pasture and lambs are accustomed to handling from an early age to encourage calm temperaments. Its ewes trace back to established bloodlines noted for robust maternal instincts and adaptability, qualities that show in their lambs’ growth rates. Renin Drake’s family has farmed this land since 1980, blending traditional grazing methods with modern welfare standards. Visitors often comment on the clean, well-kept barns and attentive care the sheep receive, reflecting Drake’s commitment to sustainable husbandry.
