Wiltshire Sheep Introduction: Wiltshire sheep are a thrifty breed, doing well on good grass and hay. They may only need grain a few weeks before lambing and while nursing depending on your available forage. These are medium sized sheep, with a mature ram perhaps 275 pounds, and the ewes about 140-175. They do well in heat, while the heavy winter coat protects well in cold. Being hair sheep, also means no problems with external parasites, and they don't need their tails docked.
Wiltshire's wedge shape makes for easy births and the ewes have plenty of milk for twins. They will usually lamb as lambs and the rams can breed at about 7 months. Most of my ewes will twin, even as lambs, and mature lighter weight on mostly grass. The meat is very desirable, with little fat and a dressing percentage of about 60%. Ewes will have twins weighing about 10 lbs. each. The lambs have a lot of vitality and will to live. They are born with protection from cold in the form of a fuzzy coat which they shed at about 45 days.
These lambs don't mature as quickly as some newer breeds, taking almost a year to reach 100-125lbs, again depends on available forage.
