Kuecker White Dorper

Kuecker White Dorper raises Dorper sheep in Oak Ridge, Missouri, in southeast Missouri near Cape Girardeau. Bill and Connie Kuecker have been breeding Dorper sheep for more than a decade and are members of the American Dorper Sheep Breeders Society. Their flock is health tested for common conditions and follows guidelines for rotational grazing and nutrition.

They keep lambs close to the homestead with access to pasture and shelter, allowing daily interaction that helps calm the animals and supports early socialization. Bill and Connie focus on sturdy bloodlines selected for growth and fleece quality, with several rams that have earned recognition at regional fairs. Visitors often note the peaceful setting and the breeders’ willingness to share insights into care and management. The farm’s history dates back three generations, and the couple values responsible stewardship and transparency in all aspects of their program.
