KNB Dorpers

KNB Dorpers is a Dorper sheep breeder in Emmett, Idaho, serving Gem County and southwestern Idaho near Boise. Their flock follows recognized breed standards and undergoes routine health screenings, including parasite monitoring, structural assessments, and seasonal nutritional evaluations to support overall well-being. Owner Kelsey Palomer has dedicated several years to selective breeding, emphasizing consistent lamb vigor, maternal instincts, and balanced conformation for both show and production goals.

Sheep graze on mixed pastureland with access to shelter and fresh water, and are handled daily to build calm temperaments and reinforce gentle handling practices. Pasture rotation and targeted feeding plans ensure rich forage availability, contributing to steady weight gain and hardy frames suited to varied climates. Detailed records accompany each animal, with clear pedigrees and performance notes that reflect a transparent approach to flock improvement and long-term lineage health.

These nominations are valued for homestead settings as well as larger flocks, offering adaptable sheep with reliable growth rates and manageable dispositions.
