Our main aim when we first decided to start a flock was to have around 40 high quality ewes which display the traits nessecary for breeding good sheep commercial or pedigree. They should have deep full gigots, a wide loin, plenty of length, be correct in mouth, feet and legs and have that spark factor or style.

The current flock is mainly bought in but we have a few good shearlings to introduce to the flock next year. We have a strict culling policy maintaining only the best.

The ram that all are females and rams seem to be bred around is Westonvale Jubilee. Jubilee was a tremendous ram and never seems to breed a bad one. His breeing is in all of are sheep purchased from Norman McMordie and also from a ewe lamb purchased from Ian Goudy.

 

Sires of our females include:

Knighton Grand Prix- This ram bred by Percy Tait and owned by Drew Cowan was 1st prize at the Royal show as a lamb. He has sired some tremendous sheep.

Foulrice Dynamite-  He is by Jubilee and has an index of 371, he had a tremendous end.

Typical examples of our ewes. The far ewe is by Foulrice Dynamite and the closest is by Castelau Ultra
