Sun Valley Ranch

Sun Valley Ranch raises Dorper sheep in Wittmann, Arizona, serving Maricopa County near Phoenix. Owner Jorge Narez draws on practical experience in sheep husbandry and local grazing conditions. The ranch follows national breed registry guidelines and conducts routine health screenings to maintain strong, healthy bloodlines.

Lambs begin life in a climate-controlled barn before moving to open pastures, where regular handling helps foster a calm temperament. Grazing on native grasses supports natural nutrition and sustainable land stewardship in the desert environment. Simple mangers built from reclaimed materials encourage natural foraging behavior and muscle development, reflecting the ranch’s commitment to thoughtful animal care. Structured breeding pairs are chosen based on structural soundness and adaptability, preserving traits like robust coats and efficient growth suited to desert conditions. Spring lambing season is monitored closely to support natural mothering and allows the team to perform early wellness checks in quiet surroundings.
