Emert

Emert, Dorper sheep, Robert Lee, TX, is based in West Texas near San Angelo. It has been breeding Dorper sheep for over a decade and holds membership in the National Dorper Association. All lambs receive routine vaccinations and health screenings while adult animals are maintained on custom mineral supplements with quarterly parasite and hoof evaluations.

The farm was founded by Tad Emert with a focus on pasture-based grazing, shaded loafing areas and daily handling to foster calm temperaments. Rotational grazing on native grasses preserves soil health and supports a balanced diet year-round. Lambs are socialized from birth and raised alongside guardian dogs to enhance their confidence and ease of movement. Detailed records of lineage, birth weights and growth rates support consistent selection for maternal traits and overall flock vigor. A local veterinarian highlights the flock’s sound structure and steady growth, reflecting consistent husbandry and transparent record keeping.
