SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SHEEP/WOOL
ROMNEY
SHEEP
Romney brood ewes |
Romney’s are registered with the
American Romney Breeders Association, A.R.B.A., http://www.americanromney.org. The Romney sheep are a medium
sheep, 140 to 180 lbs for the ewes and 180 to 220 lbs for the rams. The meat is lean, well
muscled and has a delicate taste. It hangs a high quality carcass. The fleece is unique: it is
lustrous, it hangs in separate locks, is high yielding, over 70% and it is
fine among the long wool sheep. The
Romney wool runs between 29 and 36 micron.
Hand spinners like the wool. I show the Romney’s at fairs in
California and Arizona. I am quite
happy with the fair results and the sheep. Contact me regarding stock
for sale. |
