R Lazy S

R Lazy S is a Dorper sheep breeder in Keenesburg, CO, serving Weld County and the Front Range near Denver. Leslie Sorensen has cared for these hair sheep for several years, following health protocols that include routine veterinary checks and selective breeding. The flock grazes on open pastures, and each lamb receives early handling to foster calm temperaments suited for family farms. Protective shelter barns and portable pens offer shade in summer and warmth through winter, supporting the flock’s comfort amid Colorado’s wide-ranging weather and enabling consistent health year-round.

R Lazy S emphasizes sustainable pasture rotation and composting to maintain soil health and reduce supplementary feeding. Lean meat qualities and low-maintenance coats are prioritized, reflecting a practical approach for small-scale operations. Their breeding program aligns with broader registry guidelines to ensure consistency in hardiness and mothering ability. A commitment to animal welfare and thoughtful land stewardship defines their ongoing work on the farm.
