Troutman Farms

Troutman Farms, Dorper sheep, Hallsville, MO, in Mid-Missouri near Columbia, is a family-run operation led by John C Troutman. With eight years of sheep experience, he follows recommended health screening and works with local veterinarians for regular checkups. Breeding pairs are selected for pasture adaptability and efficient weight gain, matching core traits of the Dorper breed.

Lambs are born in clean pens, moved to open-range grazing on gently rolling hills, and receive gentle handling from day one. Origins in a dairy operation founded by his grandparents inspired a focus on animal welfare and careful husbandry. Regular flock rotations on native grasses help maintain healthy pastures and natural parasite control. Visitors often comment on the calm temperament and sturdy build of the flock.

Seasonal breeding cycles align with Missouri’s spring growth, giving lambs ample forage before weaning and diets that mix hay with mineral-supplemented salt licks to support robust health.
