Torin Ranch

Torin Ranch breeds Dorper sheep in Trent, TX, in Taylor County and West Texas near Abilene. Hector Rodriguez has raised Dorper sheep for more than a decade, participates in regional breeding programs, and follows recommended health screening practices. The flock grazes on irrigated pastures and is housed in a well-ventilated barn during extreme weather, with every lamb introduced to gentle handling from an early age. Breeding records are maintained to track lineage and performance, helping clients choose animals matched to their farming goals.

On-site facilities include a dedicated lambing barn and fenced rotational grazing systems designed to support flock health year-round. The herd’s diet combines pasture grasses with supplemental grains tailored to each growth stage. Local 4-H leaders note the calm temperament of the lambs and appreciate their consistent growth rates. Visitors describe the ranch’s relaxed atmosphere and the approachable nature of the sheep during farm tours.
