Through years of selective breeding the flock’s conformation and adaptability to local conditions have been enhanced. Each animal grazes freely on native grass pastures and receives daily wellness checks, while lambs benefit from early hands-on socialization. Rotational grazing, natural forage management, routine foot inspections, and targeted deworming support flock health without routine antibiotics. Visitors often remark on the calm demeanor and sturdy build of the sheep, noting their suitability for diverse farm settings. Detailed records of lambing rates and maternal performance guide each breeding season’s decisions. This emphasis on temperament and hardiness reflects the farm’s focus on long-term flock well-being.
