Sheep are carefully selected on type and are bred to ensure maximum production is maintained all year round, both in hot summers and cold, wet winters.
Chromedale rams produce a thick-bodied medium-framed ewe that has both good maternal attributes and carcass, with predominately black noses and feet. Chromedale wool is much more dense and springy than the pure Coopworth/Romney types, with lambs less likely to “run to wool”.
The ewes can be joined slightly earlier than full blood British sheep and suit those producers wanting to lamb in the late Autumn-early winter months of late May /June/July.
