We first saw Zwartbles at the Royal Show in 2003 and along with many others were taken with their size, strength and nature.
In 2004, we bought our first females from Mrs Philippa Ball, Woodston Flock, followed by a ram lamb and ewe lambs from Mr & Mrs C Hughes,
Kiln Fields flock.
Zwartbles are a lovely looking sheep with striking markings, excellent prolificacy, good growth and easy temperaments.
Our Zwartbles are being produced as pedigree breeding stock with lesser animals being finished at grass and sold either at market or privately.
We are regularly finishing lambs at in excess 60kg at grass. It is our aim to continue the easy management qualities of the Zwartbles, such as
calm natures, easy lambing and milkiness, whilst at the same time improving the carcass quality, through increased fleshing.
