We have now completed a full update of many of the significant reference sires responsible for the genetic background of our flock. As you scroll through the various sires please note the impact of the linebred Mayer Hampshire genepool throughout most of our sires. Our flock is sometimes referred to as a “Suffolk” flock but in reality it is double linebred Mayer Hampshire and Crazy Horse Suffolk. It is our desire to combine the best of both the Hampshire and Suffolk worlds into a genetic entity that will breed true and perform consistently. Our 2012 lamb crop promises to document this effort.
