Dorset Downs are
rather a rare breed in Australia, there being
but 3 registered studs in the flock books. They
are more popular in England, being found mainly
in the county of Devon on the south
coast.
They are noted for early maturing
prime lambs, and adapting to a wide range of
varying conditions.
Wool is short and
dense, giving resistance to bad weather, with 26
microns average – spinning
quality.
