Several years ago while driving
down the highway, I saw a beautiful white, long horned animal that looked
like a goat. After some investigation, I was told these
wonderful animals were actually hair sheep known as Texas Dalls.
One amazing feature to these sheep was they did not carry the smell like you
would find with goats. In talking with the owner, I was able to
convince him to sell me a ram and two ewes. The enjoyment I discovered
from these three animals was so profound that it led me back to the original
owner and I bought seven more ewes. My herd now consists of about fifty and
I have
expanded my operation to Black Bellied Barbado, Black Hawaiian and Mouflon.
My Dall stock comes from three different bloodlines, which are Hernandez,
Fowler and Shertz. To say they are impressive sheep is an
understatement. When I purchased these animals, my goal was their horn
size.
If you are searching for a hobby
but not sure what to try, I would encourage you to investigate and consider
any one of these four breeds because they are fun to raise and can be
profitable as well. My business began as a small hobby and has grown
into a second income for me. Should you have any questions or require
further information, please feel free to contact me via the link above.
