Schuman Farms

Schuman Farms, Dorper sheep, Covington, TX, is located in East Texas near Dallas. The operation has raised Dorper sheep for several years and follows recommended health-testing protocols as a member of the American Dorper Sheep Association.

Their flock grazes on managed pastures, and lambs are socialized from an early age to ensure calm temperaments and easy handling. Animals are housed in open shelters that protect from extreme weather while allowing free movement. The farm’s practical approach to breeding and attentive herd management has earned positive feedback from local 4-H leaders and farm visitors.

Lambing takes place in a dedicated barn area where each ewe receives individual attention during and after birth. Record keeping for pedigrees and health histories is maintained for every animal to guide selective breeding and support flock well-being. Schuman Farms shares insights on pasture management at local agricultural workshops.
