Weatherby Missouri

Weatherby Missouri, a Dorper sheep breeder in Gallatin, Missouri, farms in northwest Missouri and the Kansas City area. Ava Hancock has maintained breeding stock for several seasons, participating in registry programs and following recommended health testing protocols for lambing success. The flock grazes on rotational pasture and receives daily handling to support gentle temperament and consistent growth. Morning routines include hands-on care during feeding and pasture checks, ensuring each lamb thrives in open fields edged with native grasses.

The farm’s Dorpers are raised with attention to natural wool density and lean meat quality, reflecting a commitment to balanced livestock stewardship. The farm’s protected shelters feature fresh bedding and ample shade, offering comfort through changing seasons. By balancing pasture rotation, parasite monitoring and selective breeding, they promote flock health and uniformity across generations. Weatherby Missouri’s approach fosters resilient lambs suited for small-scale farms and homestead flocks.
