As Blacksheep can tell you Zwartbles are a very sociable breed. Amiable personalities, gentle and always make time for a chat if you have a few spare minutes to spend with them.
The lambs are very smart and in a group look like a miniature horse race when in the frantic five minute mode.
They finish much slower than commercial meat breeds so they tend to very sweet, tender meat with little fat. We often keep ours through the winter and kill in the spring.
Also very good milkers.I believe that was their original purpose when kept in Holland and Belgium.
They look big because they have long, slim legs. Lovely ladies!!
