HiJo Dorpers
HiJo Dorpers raises Dorper sheep in Amity, OR, serving Yamhill County and the Willamette Valley near Salem. Their breeding program follows association guidelines with thorough health testing focused on parasite resistance, hoof health and structural soundness. On the pasture-based farm managed by Antonio Juarez, sheep rotate through forage paddocks planted with native grasses and legumes and use open shelters that encourage natural behaviors.
Lambs stay with ewes from birth for steady socialization and natural coat shedding, reducing stress and handling needs. Flock management includes routine hoof trimming, parasite monitoring and detailed record keeping to track health across seasons. Seasonal pasture testing helps maintain diverse forage, contributing to flock nutrition, biodiversity and soil health.
They participate in local agricultural fairs and share breeding insights with shepherds throughout the valley. Careful attention to correct bite, udder conformation and leg structure supports a resilient flock suited to family farms.
