Charollais
The Charollais sheep is a distinctive and highly regarded breed originating from the Burgundy region of France, well-known for its exceptional qualities as a terminal sire. Recognized for their distinctive pinkish-brown face and minimal wool on the head and legs, Charollais sheep are medium to large in size, with a robust and muscular build.

Renowned for their excellent growth rates and superior carcass quality, they produce lean meat with a high yield, making them a popular choice for meat production. This breed is characterized by its fast-maturing lambs, which thrive on both pasture and mixed farming systems, demonstrating strong adaptability. Charollais sheep are also celebrated for their calm demeanor, making them manageable and efficient within a flock. Their ability to cross well with other breeds adds to their versatility and widespread appeal among sheep farmers seeking to improve the productivity and profitability of their operations.
