Dorset Down Sheep

Hi Everyone

Does anyone know of a source for Dorset Down sheep in France ?

Also Dexter Cows.

We could import them from UK but would prefer to obtain in France.

I know it sounds improbable but we thought that about our Chickens, found them in France !

Thanks to all.

We have Dorset Poll sheep which are excellent, from a UK owner resident in France who now also breeds them with a Vendee breed - Rouges d' l'ouest . He does it for a living here in 53 Mayenne and I would recommend his meat as well which is totally bio. We are expecting our first flock in June. Ours are pure Dorset Poll and are unique in that they can breed all year round, are very hardy, and have excellent quality very white wool. In Australia and New zealand this race is used extensively for highest quality meat. If you are interested I will look up his contact details.

Mary I have PM 'ed John & Sue with the details. Here they are for you and anyone else who is interested.

Sheep details are Brian & Mary Hayley,

Le Bois Rond, 53940 Ahuillé, Telephone 02 43 66 80 36 or fax 02 43 37 82 04
They are a fully registered French business and sell their stock dead or alive! I think they are lambing at the moment.
