Our White Dorper Sheep will produce for you!

We raise White Dorpers because we are serious about our sheep. White Dorpers exhibit superior carcass qualities, hardiness, out-of-season breeding, exceptional maternal traits, quiet dispositions and non-selective grazing habits. They are a shedding sheep and do not waste energy producing wool. They are not a dual purpose breed... they are a meat sheep.

At Firethorn Farm we select for

• Reproductive efficiency
• Superior carcass qualities
• Parasite resistance and resilience
• Shedding ability

Our goal is to raise an easy care sheep that will produce for you and increase your bottom line!

Our flock has been in the voluntary scrapie program since 1996 and is certified scrapie free. Our sheep have tested negative for OPP, CL, brucellosis and Johne's. There has never been any foot rot on our farm or in our sheep.
