Long Croft

Long Croft, Dorper sheep breeders in Elkmont, AL, are based in Limestone County and North Alabama near Huntsville. They have been raising Dorper sheep for over a decade, hold membership in the National Sheep Improvement Program, partner with local veterinarians for routine health exams, and conduct regular testing for parasite loads and hoof conditions. Their flock follows rotational grazing on nutrient-rich pastures, with access to shade structures and draft-free barns, while lambs are handled daily to foster gentle behavior and early social bonding.

Several of their breeding ewes have earned regional show ribbons, and a recent review noted the herd’s calm temperament and consistent lambing performance, even under varied seasonal conditions. The farm combines traditional husbandry with sustainable practices, including composted bedding and integrated pest management to ensure flock health and pasture vitality. Operated by Daniel Long and Candace Long, Long Croft maintains a family legacy of small-scale farming, emphasizing transparency in breeding records and a commitment to the regional agricultural community.
