About White Suffolk SheepAbout White Suffolk Sheep



Beginning in 1977, Dr. Ewan Roberts of the University of New South Wales in Australia started a breeding program to develop a terminal sire breed of sheep. His goals were to have a breed with the confirmation, structure, and growth of the Suffolk, but with a white head and legs. The initial cross was between Suffolk and Polled Dorset and separately Suffolk crossed with Border Leicester. The F2 and subsequent generations were selected against black points and for increased gain.  

White Suffolk sheep have similar features to Suffolk sheep, however, instead of dark points the White Suffolk has a white face and legs.
