Manger Farms

Manger Farms, Dorper sheep, Englewood, OH, Montgomery County and the Miami Valley near Dayton, raises hardy stock adapted to pasture. The farm has been breeding Dorper sheep for more than a decade with membership in the American Dorper Sheep Council and routine health screening for parasite resistance and foot health.

Animals graze on rotational pastures and spend nights in a ventilated barn that supports natural behavior and easy access to fresh water. Lambs are introduced to visitors during weekend farm tours where they develop calm temperaments and become accustomed to gentle handling. Several rams have earned ribbons at regional county fairs for balanced growth and temperament under pasture conditions. Its flock benefits from a structured breeding plan that emphasizes genetic diversity and measurable growth rates. The farm notes the latest lambing season was smooth, with steady weight gains across the herd.
