A CLOSED FLOCK - for the last 15 years 100% home-bred (with the exception of an occasional bought-in ram).
We are MV Accredited.
Scrapie Genotype - A flock priority over the last 10 years has been to achieve 100% ARR/ARR status across the whole flock, females as well as males - the highest level of resistance to scrapie and eligibility for export.
Worm resistance/resilience - Our policy is to worm ewes once a year, post lambing. No further worming is required. It has been many years since we needed to worm lambs.
Good feet - We have, in the past, culled any persistently lame sheep.
