Snail Pace

Snail Pace, Dorper sheep breeder in West Point, KY, operates in Hardin County and the Ohio River valley near Louisville. Its flock is part of recognized Dorper sheep registries and receives annual veterinary health screenings including vaccination and nutritional assessments.

Lambs graze rotationally on mixed grass and clover pastures, enjoying hay supplementation in winter, and are enriched through daily handling to foster calm temperaments. Donna Mccreary keeps detailed breeding records and refines selections each season to prioritize structural soundness and adaptive foraging behaviors. The flock supports sustainable land management by preserving pasture diversity with careful grazing patterns.

Each ewe and ram undergoes regular hoof inspections and parasite monitoring to maintain flock vitality year round. Snail Pace’s gradual weaning process reduces stress on lambs and promotes steady weight gain. Local neighbors often note the sheep’s consistent health and gentle nature, reflecting the farm’s hands-on approach.
