Trafton Lake Dorpers

Trafton Lake Dorpers raises Dorper sheep in Anacortes, WA, in Skagit County near Seattle. They maintain records with recognized sheep breeding associations and follow recommended health screening protocols to support flock well-being.

Animals graze on open pasture adjacent to freshwater wetlands, receiving daily handling to foster calm temperaments. The operation prioritizes rotational grazing to preserve pasture health and reduce parasite exposure. The farm’s family-run operation has introduced Dorper genetics to the region across multiple lambing seasons, focusing on sustainable grazing and soil health. Visitors note the sheep’s friendly nature and consistent care quality.

Each lamb receives individualized attention during early growth, with insulated barns cleaned daily to maintain comfort. Breeding records emphasize maternal traits and hardiness, reflecting the breed’s suitability for small-scale farming and land management.
