A Superior Breed
Choosing Dorper lambs can be extremely beneficial for you. Here are some of the reasons why:
Strong and Adaptable
Dorpers are a highly adaptable breed of sheep. They can survive harsh, extensive conditions as well as more intensive operations.
Great Maternal Qualities
Ewes can be excellent mothers and heavy milkers. That is why lambs are vigorous and have a high survivability rate.
Long Breeding Season
Dorpers can be managed to produce three lamb crops in two years. That is because they are non-seasonal, which means that they can breed year-round.
Reproductive Efficiency
Dorper sheep are fertile and prolific. Lambing rates over 150% are typical.
Hybrid Vigor
These marvelous sheep cross well with commercial ewes of other breeds. As terminal sires, they produce lambs that are muscular and grow fast.
Non-Selective Grazers
Dorper sheep are superb converters of various types of forage. They can also be a great option for grazing or weed control operations.
Tolerant to Heat and Insects
Because of their Blackhead Persian origin, Dorper sheep have a natural tolerance to high temperatures and insect populations. They are productive in areas where other breeds have a hard time surviving.
