I know what you're thinking - what on earth is a 'BoDo'? ??? Well, its a Dorset/Bowmont cross (could easily be DoBo but doesn't sound as good!) ;D Firstly though, I have a lovely ram lamb, pure Polled Dorset, born mid January, so ready to work this year. Available mid May. Also have ewe lamb the same age, but not sure if I'll be selling her yet.
As for the 'BoDo's', these are early April lambs, so still quite young. Will be weaned around July time. If anyone is interested in a 'Dorset' type sheep with a good fleece (hopefully inherited from the Bowmont side) then these will be ideal. I'm not sure whether they will inherit the Dorset's ability to lamb at any time of year as these are the first crosses of this nature that I've had. I have 4 ewe lambs and two intact ram lambs, I can keep them if anyone is interested. I can provide some piccies if needed although not through this site as it won't let me post them on here for some reason!! Cheers!
