Meet the Flock
Our flock is split into two; the young ewes up to 5 or 6 years old are kept purebred and mated with pedigree Ryeland tups (rams).
Female or 'gimmer' lambs are kept for breeding and the very best tup lambs are also kept to be sold as pedigree The 'other ' half of our flock is made up of various ewes cross-bred with a Ryeland Ram. To ensure all our sheep stay fit and healthy they graze better quality land. It is only the male lambs that are reared for meat, for the female makes an excellent mother and they are sold to pet homes, to mow grass and live along side horses to graze out the weeds, or the pedigrees for breeding.
