Babydoll Southdowns

The breed originated in the Southdown hills of Sussex, England and was brought to America in the 1800s. Fleeces range from 2-3 inches of spring, bouncy wool with more barbs per inch that typical wools, giving it the edge on a river. Our herd came by happenstance, an old friend who could no longer care for them and we had plenty of grass to go around. Their main concerns of the day is eating enough and snoozing in the sun.
