ADSBS President’s Message
Philip Glass
Most of you reading this latest edition of our Dorper Journal are quite familiar with Dorper and White Dorper Sheep but
there is a whole world of people taking a look at Dorpers now.
World wide demand for meat is increasing and is projected to
continue on its current path. As incomes increase around the
world consumers look to add more meat to their diets. When
you take a look at the increase in incomes and opportunities for
people in China and India you are looking at 2 billion people
who are going to be adding more meat to their diets. On the
supply side drought, changing land use, and the aging of the
majority of people in livestock production are leading to long
term reduction in supply.
Many would be producers are looking at Dorpers not because they have a life long love of livestock but merely see the
income potential of running sheep on their property. We all have
the great opportunity now more than ever to be ambassadors
of the breed and introduce Dorpers to a new group of people.
When faced with this new opportunity we must focus on
the “Outstanding Characteristics of the Dorper” as presented in
Dorpers into the New Century training manual.
1. Meat Production: Optimum meat qualities, fertility,
fecundity (twins), weight gain, and carcass quality.
2. Adaptability: Low mortality rate, reproduction tempo,
growth rate, body condition
3. Hardiness: Dorpers are able to survive and thrive under
a variety of conditions
4. Pasture Utilization: Dorpers are non-selective in their
grazing habits and this stands in great contrast to most
other animals be they wild or domesticated.
5. Good Mothering Qualities: they lamb easily and look
after their lambs
6. Covering: A shedding sheep keeps labor costs down.
This is an important aspect of the breed and is what
brings interest from new breeders.
7. Dorper Skins: leather quality among the best in the
world
8. General Appearance: Dorpers are pleasing to the eye!
As well as explaining these outstanding characteristics we
as breeders need to focus on keeping and improving these important qualities of the breed that have brought us to where we
are now. There is nothing more pleasing than to see a healthy
Dorper ewe with twin lambs out grazing and doing “her thing”.
I hope you enjoy our third Dorper Journal and keep it as
a handy reference as you explore the world of Dorper Sheep
with us.
ABRI ~ A New Tool For ADSBS Members
Ever need to find an ADSBS registration number? Want to
look up the pedigree on a sale sheep? Maybe you are looking
for a Dorper or White Dorper breeder? Thanks to a program
called ABRI all this is now possible from the American Dorper
Sheep Breeders’ Society website.
ABRI stands for Agricultural Business Research Institute.
Based in Australia at University of New England, it is a provider
of livestock recording services to 14 breed associations in North
America and is licensed in 21 different countries.
ABRI provides a search engine that can be used to look up
flock and registration numbers of Dorpers and White Dorpers
in the ADSBS stud book. It also tracks pedigrees, number of
registered offspring and transfers of ownership.
This service is easy to use once you know how to get started.
On the ADSBS website click on “search for a breeder” from the
menu. On the search page enter all or part of a breeder’s name
or ranch name and click “search”. Choose from possible breeders’ selections and note the “prefix” on the left side. You can
find contact information on the breeder by clicking on the name.
To find pedigree information on an animal click on
4
“animal enquiry” at the top of the breeder’s page or, from the
menu, “search for pedigree”. In the second line under “animal
identifier”enter the animal’s ADSBS registration number if
known. If the ADSBS number is not known go to the first line
and under “name” put in the “prefix” exactly as it appears on
the Member Enquiry page. After the prefix add the animal’s
flock number if known or just search using the prefix. To
narrow the search add year of birth, sex and color. Click on
search and select the animal’s flock name and number from the
animals listed. There may be more than one page. Click on the
highlighted animal’s name to see DOB, breeder, present owner,
number of ADSBS progeny and other information. Scroll down
to see full pedigree.
On the pedigree you can click on any animal and get information on them also.
ABRI is just one of services that the American Dorper
Sheep Breeders’ Society provides for the convenience of its
membership.

Dear Dorper Journal Readers:
Welcome to the Third Edition of the American Dorper
Journal, showcasing White Dorper and Dorper sheep. As you
read this in early 2012, the American Dorper Sheep Breeders
Society will have risen to the ranking of the third largest purebred sheep breed registry in the United States! Our breeds have
gained acceptance throughout the American sheep industry:
range, mountain or farm flock operations in all four corners
of the United States. In the nearly two decades since the first
Dorper embryos were imported to the US from South Africa,
Dorpers and White Dorpers have proven they can thrive in a
variety of conditions.
The American Dorper Sheep Breeders Society conducts
a broad spectrum of programs to meet the needs of our mem-
bers, and to promote our breeds. Purebred seed stock sales
are conducted annually in Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee and
Texas. In 2011 we also began a commercial ram sale in Texas,
and expect to expand this offering in the years ahead. We
have sponsored our educational course on the Dorper/White
Dorper breed standard, the “Dorper Course” with programs in
Ohio, Oregon, Texas and Tennessee. Watch for the next one in
your region! We have also conducted ADSBS Judges Schools
to certify judges for the breeds, following the South African
breed standard. We have a solid youth program combining
showmanship classes, youth purchase vouchers and a futurity
ewe lamb competition. Check out our website, www.Dorper.
org, for the latest news on upcoming events, or email me at
[email protected].
Dorper and White Dorper genetics have a great deal to
offer your flock! They are unmatched in value to the purebred
breeder, having held the top breed averages for several years
in a row at the prestigious Midwest Stud Ram Sale. Dorper
and White Dorper based market lambs are now commanding
premium prices at the auction barns throughout much of the
country. These breeds are quickly becoming the “new face”
of the American sheep industry!
Please keep this publication as a resource guide. It contains our active membership list, and advertising from breeders
throughout the nation. It contains photographs and information
on breeding, selection and the breed as a whole. Welcome to
the exciting world of Dorpers and White Dorpers!
Half-Circle Six Ranches
Philip & Jennifer Glass, Water Valley, Texas
Half-Circle Six Ranches consists of several ranches near
Water Valley and Sterling City in West Texas. While registered Dorper and White Dorper sheep are our focus we also
raise many quality commercial sheep as well. By using our
best fullblood rams when they are not needed we are able to
vastly improve our commercial flock. When we were ready
to expand our operations we contacted Paul and Kathy Lewis
about purchasing some of their purebred ewes to expand our
flocks. We were lucky enough to also have some of Wes and
Jane Patton’s ewes sent along as well. The Oregon and California ewes never skipped a beat and went off the truck ready
to eat dry West Texas grass. These sheep along with our own
commercial ewes make up a high quality flock that we are
aiming to be at 1000 head in the near future.
Registered sheep are so special to us and really are a
pleasure to work with. The base flock along with the new
6
Australian genetics have really moved us forward. Another set
of imported lambs will hit the ground in 2012. These sheep are
doing well here despite the worst drought in many decades. We
plan to work with these sheep but also keep an eye on sheep
“down under” for any Dorpers or White Dorpers we feel can
add to our success.
Our next endeavor will be offering sheep for sale online.
With sales from “Cyber Monday” (Monday after Thanksgiving) reaching $1.25 Billion Dollars we really are now a world
of online consumers. As sheep breeders I think we need to fill
that need so look for online information on sheep for sale at
www.dorper.net starting late Spring 2012.
The strong demand for our sheep along with the many
friends we have in the business make it a pleasure to work
with Dorpers!
Progeny from our 2010 Aussie import
Recent results of our new genetics:
National Champion White Dorper Ram • Mid-America Reserve Champion White Dorper Ram
Mid-America Top Selling Pen of White Dorper Ewes • Mid-America Top Selling Pen of Dorper Ewes
National Dorper Sale - Top Selling Dorper Ram • Commercial Ram Sale - Top Selling Ram
Thank you to all our
buyers. We wish you
continued success in
the Dorper business.

Lewis White Dorpers
Paul & Kathy Lewis, Bonanza, Oregon
Here at Lewis White Dorpers we are looking forward to
continuing to provide grass based genetics with Lambplan
EBV’s for our purebred and commercial customers.
Currently, we are the only White Dorper breeders in the
U.S. that are enrolled in Lambplan and can provide cross-flock
evaluation with Lambplan EBV’s and certified scanning measurements to help meet your flock goals for growth, carcass
and maternal traits.
In addition to utilizing Lambplan, we evaluate our potential
sale rams on visual traits, including dorper type, sound feet and
legs and shedding. We keep only the top 50% of our ram lambs
to insure just the top rams are sold as future sires.
As of November 15th, 2011 we have 32 rams from our 2011
drop rated in the top 10% across all Australian terminal breeds
for post weaning eye-muscle depth.
Once again we will be bringing sheep to the Midwest Stud
Ram Sale in Sedalia, MO as well as the West Coast Production sale in Red Bluff, California. Ewes and rams will also be
available for sale at the ranch in midsummer.
In 2012 we are looking forward to the addition of new genetics from Australia. This semen will be used in our breeding
program and will also be available for sale. Working with our
partners in Australia we import semen from sires with excellent EBV’s that have been visually selected for type, soundness
and good shedding.
If you want sheep with proven performance, muscle
and structural correctness, look for Lewis White Dorpers.

Helpful Facts
Helpful Facts
The first Dorpers were imported into the UK in
2004 by Mrs. Bernadette Dowling, followed by
various semen and embryo imports mainly from
New Zealand and more recently, Canada.
Under ideal feed conditions dorpers have been
known to lamb twice within 6 to 7 months.
8
Dorpers rams are a wise choice for breeding
young ewes since lambs have few birthing
problems and are vigorous at birth.
The first Dorper lambs born in the UK arrived in
September 2005 on Cranes Farm, East Garston
near Hungerford. The British Dorper Sheep
Society was formed shortly thereafter.
NSIP: A Valuable Tool
For Dorper Breeders
by Cody Hiemke
NSIP Board Member, Niman Ranch Lamb Program Manager, American Lamb Board Member, Shropshire Sheep Breeder
The National Sheep Improvement Program (NSIP) is an
organization of sheep producers representing many breeds in
the United States. A common goal that all NSIP breeders share
is the interest in using technology as a tool in their selection
process. NSIP provides the framework for breeders to submit
production data and, in return, receive Expected Breeding
Values (EBVs).
EBVs are tools that allow sheep breeders to make accurate
trait-based selection of sheep based on actual production data
for the individual animal and the performance of sheep from
that individual’s multi-generation pedigree. EBVs increase the
rate of genetic progress for key traits of economical value for
your flock. EBVs are an excellent tool, but common sense
selection for soundness must not be ignored.
During the last two years NSIP has made many changes
that improve its ability to provide useable genetic information
to its members. Most notable is the transition of the NSIP data
base to LambPlan. NSIP remains a standalone entity from
LambPlan, but can access the great functionality LambPlan’s
infrastructure provides. This increased functionality includes:
the option of twice monthly EBV updates, the addition of
carcass and numerous other traits, and increased reporting
capabilities. LambPlan is the genetic evaluation program for
meat sheep breeds in Australia.
What information is needed for NSIP?
A large portion of the data submitted to NSIP is information that most production-oriented sheep breeders already
record: sire, dam, birth type, birth date, birth weight, 60-day
weights, and 120-day weights. The 60 and 120-day weights are
taken on a large group of lambs when they average that age;
this group of lambs is considered a contemporary group, and
the larger the group the greater the accuracy of EBVs when
they are being compared.
In addition to the aforementioned traits, loin depth and fat
thickness measurements via ultrasound or actual carcass data
can supply valuable carcass trait EBVs.
Helpful Facts
Lambs who receive colostrum soon after
birth commonly have stronger immune
systems later in life.
10
What does NSIP cost?
Producers pay with a dual fee structure: 1) a flock fee paid
to NSIP and 2) a per-lamb fee on all non-cull lambs paid to
NSIP as a pass-through payment to LambPlan.
The flock fee is based on the number of ewes in the flock
and is payable at time of enrollment:
Flock size (ewes) Flock Fee
$50
1 -20
$100
21 – 35
$150
36 – 50
51 – 75
$200
$250
76 – 100
$300
101 – 150
$350
151+
The per-lamb fee is currently set at $2 per lamb, but is
subject to adjust annually (rate change is not detailed in the
agreement with LambPlan, but the fact that the fees will be
revisited is agreed upon).
Why should a Dorper breeder join NSIP?
NSIP provides a tool to be used for a more profitable sheep
operation. EBVs provide an increased market for seedstock;
selling one or two additional rams can cover the annual costs
for NSIP. Across flock EBVs are the most accurate tool
available to buy, select and cull sheep to improve your flock’s
performance.
If you are not selling seedstock, EBVs assist a breeder
in increasing their flocks’ production efficiency by enabling
better selection of replacements and culling of poor performers. Here again, the value of selecting a replacement ewe or
stud ram that will yield an additional five pounds at weaning
will enhance the bottom line above and beyond the cost of
participation in NSIP.
The Dorper breed in particular has a unique advantage
in marketing sheep with EBVs. As cattle operations diversify
and look toward an easy care no-shear sheep to add to their
livestock operations you have a seedstock-buying clientele that
is used to buying stock with EBVs. Many of those cattlemen
understand EBVs and wouldn’t buy a bull without this information. Why should this be any different when buying sheep?
Should any Dorper breeders be interested in NSIP I highly
encourage you to look through the NSIP website (www.nsip.
org), contact the NSIP office manager (Mary Sorenson, 712579-6376), and/or I would be happy to discuss EBVs with any
prospective breeder.

Trousdale County, Tennessee Dorper
Demonstration Project 2011
Jason Evitts, University of Tennessee, and Bill Kuecker, Producer
Overview
Tennessee has been a fast growing sheep production state
that has effectively tripled its’ sheep numbers in the last 15
years. This has generated considerable producer interest in
adding sheep to their production enterprise. However, there
is little information available in the public sector on sheep
enterprise evaluation and economics. Additionally, there
are new easy care genetics available to sheep producers that
eliminate considerable portions of the cost and labor that are
traditionally associated with sheep production. Because of
these reasons the University of Tennessee Trousdale County
Extension teamed up with a local experienced sheep producer
to conduct a small demonstration project with enterprise
observations and economics of Dorper sheep. We fully
understand that this year 1 data is a very small project and is
not designed to be statistically significant, rather to initiate
discussion. The intent of the authors is to increase numbers
and conduct this study over several years.
Summary
Fourteen Purebred White Dorper ewes (13 yearlings
and 1 ewe lamb) were purchased from a variety of in state
and out of state sources in the summer of 2010. They were
raised separately from all other sheep in the enterprise. Ewes
were wormed and quarantined for 7 days upon receipt. The
ewes were slightly below average to average framed for the
breed with estimated dry weights of 145 pounds. The ewes
were exposed to a White Dorper ram on September 16. The
project was designed to utilize typical Tennessee production
techniques. Ewes were housed for lambing and until about 2
weeks post lambing due to wet pasture conditions during an
exceptionally wet winter. Ewes were wormed approximately
3 days after lambing. Ewes were on winter pasture and fed
only minimally prior to lambing. Ewes were supplemented
with average quality round bale hay while on winter pasture
and on 3 pounds a day square bale hay while housed. Post
lambing, they were on pasture and fed 2 pounds of a complete
12% feed. A mineral lick supplement was available free choice
from 2 weeks prior to 4 weeks post lambing. Free choice
mineral was also available. Lambs were given access to creep
feed from 30 days of age to weaning. Lambs were weaned as
a group at a time ranging from 8-10 weeks of age.
Observations
The Dorpers are advertised as non selective grazers. By
our observation, this was certainly true in this case. Ewes
consumed cedar, buck bush and a variety of woody species
as well as other broad leafs and grasses that are typically left
by cattle and other sheep in our area. By our observation,
they also appeared to graze more hours and be much more
12
aggressive foragers than other sheep in the enterprise. While
the aggressive foraging is a bonus, it did lead to the need
to reinforce fences that had been effective with other sheep
breeds. These particular sheep did require consistent foot
care. We do not know if that is a breed characteristic, nutrition
based or what else could play a role. All ewes had their feet
trimmed twice due to hoof growth during this period and with
two ewes requiring 4 feet trimmings. Two ewes did require
treatment for foot scald between toes. There was no foot rot
observed during this period.
The ewes required much less labor at lambing than other
sheep in the enterprise. The lambs were aggressive at birth
and were typically up and sucking within 15 minutes of birth.
Even though all of these ewes were first time lambers, only
two needed any assistance at lambing with one additional ewe
that needed help mothering on. The ewes were generally more
attentive to their lambs than other sheep in our experience.
These sheep are also advertised as being hardy. In this project,
no ewes were lost, all lambs were born alive and all lambs
that were born survived until weaning. We believe that the
total labor hours required were significantly reduced vs. other
sheep that have been in the enterprise but we did not measure
actual hours spent.
Results
Under the above described conditions, these first time ewes
weaned 164% lamb crop and produced lambs with an average
60 day adjusted weaning weight of 54 pounds.
Sales
Market prices were extremely strong in TN during this
time period. These lambs certainly were well fleshed and
market ready at weaning and if these lambs were marketed at
weaning, we believe that they would have topped the market.
We received a bid of $2/lb live weight for these lambs on May
7th from a local livestock buyer. This equates to over $177
in sales per ewe.
Production Costs
Feed uses were the following:
Hay – 270 pounds per ewe
Pre lambing corn/supplement -45 pounds per ewe
Post lambing ewe feed – 120 pounds per ewe
Creep feed- 22 pounds per lamb
2 bags mineral
2 small sheep mineral tubs
This equates to estimated direct feed cost of $59.30 per ewe.
Additional animal health costs are estimated at $4 per ewe.
This equates to a cash profit per ewe of $113.70
This does not provide any charge to overhead, land, equipment,
depreciation or labor.

World Federation of Dorper Breeders
The Dorper Sheep Breeders’ Society of South Africa
It has been a while since the last communication with all the members of the World Federation of Dorper Breeders.
Mrs. Charlotte Milne retired at the beginning of 2011 and I have taken over her position at the Dorper Sheep Breeders Society of
South Africa. I did meet some of our International Dorper friends (through emails) already and I’m hoping to meet all the other
members in the near future.
Let me firstly apologize for the lack of communication from my side, but it has been a very busy year.
There is a few matters that I need to bring under you attention and also require feedback from you.

Mr. Gideon Vivier resigned as the President of the World Federation of Dorper Breeders and also as a council member
of the South African Dorper Sheep Breeders Society.
The South African council recommended that the Breed Director of the South African Dorper Society act as President of the World
Federation of Dorper Breeders until such time that a President can be elected at the World Federation’s next meeting.
You are requested to let me know if you support the recommendation of the council or if you want to recommend someone else
as acting president.

The next meeting of the World Federation of Dorper Breeders will take place during the International Dorper Show in
South Africa in 2012. Pretoria will host the show and the preliminary date for the show is 27-31 August 2012. As soon
as the dates are confirmed I will inform you accordingly.
 You are invited to let us know if there is anything that you would like to see on the Agenda of the next World Federation
of Dorper Breeders meeting.
As mentioned before, it has been a very busy year and there is still a growing demand for Dorpers in Africa and the rest of the
World. Our inspectors offered many courses abroad and were also invited to judge Dorper shows in various countries. Their
feedback was that the general standard of Dorpers across the world is very good. It is great to hear and see that people or over the
World are trying to constantly improve the Dorper.
The South African Society also has a new President (Dries Wiese, [email protected] ) and Vice President (Rikus van der
Merwe [email protected] ) that was elected during our last AGM in July 2011. There is also a shift in focus with regard to
the Dorpers in South Africa to the extent that “we have made them as beautiful as we possibly can; we now need to focus on their
functionality again” (quoted from Dries Wiese’ article in an agricultural magazine).
Dorper Breeders in South Africa are increasingly doing performance testing of animals and it is great to see that Dorpers tested
the second highest number of all animals of all small stock breeds in South Africa.
I am also happy to report that the Dorpers once again won the Annual National Carcass competition in South Africa for the 15th
consecutive time in as many years. Not only did the Dorpers won; they completely dominated the competition by taking all but 2
places in the first 40 places. Dorpers are the carcass king!
The Dorper International Sale will take place at Upington on 2 & 3 November 2011 and I will publish some photos and results on
www.dorpersa.co.za for those who are interested.
Finally I want to request that you share any Dorper news around the World with us. We would like to keep everyone informed
and maybe we can publish the news/events etc. either on our web page or it might be a good time that the World Federation of
Dorper Breeders gets their own web page to keep members up to date with what’s happening with the Dorper all over the World.
Hope to hear from you soon and I’m looking forward to meet you at the August 2012 meeting.
Regards,
Attie Westraad, Breed Director

Standard of Excellence
The purpose of a Standard of Excellence is to indicate the
degree of excellence of the animal by means of a description
and a score by points according to the visual appearance and
performance. These values must be recorded in such a way as
to give a true reflection of the excellence or deficiencies of the
sheep. For descriptive and comparative purposes sheep may
be compared with each other according to a score card, and
the following points are allotted, corresponding to the respective terms of the main sections of the standard of excellence.
Very good – 5 points
Above average – 4 points
Average – 3 points
Poor or below average – 2 points
Very poor with cull points – 1 point
The following comprises the Standard of Excellence:
Conformation: (represented by the symbol B)
Head:
Strong and long, with large eyes, widely spaced and
protectively placed. Strong nose, strong well shaped mouth
with well fitted deep jaws. The forehead must not be dished.
The size of the ears must be in relation to the head. A developed horn base or small horns are the ideal. Heavy horns are
undesirable but permissible. The head must be covered with
short, dullish black hair in the Dorper and dull, white hair in
the White Dorper. The head must be dry i.e. without indications of fat localization.
Forequarters and neck:
The neck should be of medium length, well fleshed and
broad and well coupled to the forequarters. Shoulders should
be firm, broad and strong. A moderate protrusion of the brisket
beyond the shoulders, moderate width and good depth are the
ideal. Forelegs must be strong, straight and well placed with
strong pasterns and hoofs not too widely split. Weak pasterns
and X legs must be discriminated against according to degree.
Shoulders which appear loose, brisket which slants up too
sharply with no projection beyond the shoulders, crooked legs
and weak walking ability are faulty.
Barrel:
The ideal is a long, deep, wide body, ribs well sprung, loin
broad and full. The sheep must have a long straight back and
not have a “devil’s grip”. A slight dip behind the shoulders
is permissible.
Hindquarter:
A long and wide rump is the ideal. The inner and outer
twist to be well fleshed and deep in adult animals. The hind
legs must be strong and well placed with sturdy feet and strong
pasterns. Faulty pasterns must be discriminated against according to degree. The hocks must be strong without a tendency to turn in or out. Sickle, bandy or perpendicular hocks
are culling faults.
16
Udder and Sex Organs:
Ewe – well shaped udder and sex organs are essential.
Ram – The scrotum should not be too long and testicles
should be of equal size and not too small. A split scrotum is
undesirable.
General Appearance:
The sheep should be symmetrical and well-proportioned.
A calm temperament with a vigorous appearance is the ideal.
Size or Growth Rate: (represented by the symbol G)
A sheep with a good weight for its age is the ideal. Extremely small or extremely big animals must be discriminated
against.
Distribution of Fat: (represented by the symbol D)
Too much localization of fat on any part of the body is
undesirable. An even distribution of a thin layer of fat over
the carcass and between the muscle fibers is the ideal. The
sheep must be firm and muscular when handled.
Color Pattern: (represented by the symbol P)
Dorpers: A white sheep with black confined to the head
and neck is the ideal. Black spots, to a limited extent on the
body and legs are permissible, but an entirely white sheep
or a sheep predominantly black is undesirable. Brown hair
around the eyes, white teats, white under the tail and white
hoofs are undesirable.
White Dorpers: A white sheep, fully pigmented around
the eyes, under the tail, on the udder and the teats is the ideal.
A limited number of other colored spots is permissible on the
ears and underline.
Cover or Fleece: (represented by the symbol H)
H5: A short, loose, light mixture of hair and wool with
a natural clean kemp underline. The head should be covered
in short clean kemp.
H4: A short, loose, light covering of hair and wool with
wool predominating on forequarter and with a natural clean
underline. Wool is allowed up to the crown of the head.
H3: A short, loose covering of predominantly wool or
soft fine hair with perceptible kemp on the outer thigh. A soft
light mane or apron is allowed. Wool is allowed forward of
the crown on the head.
H2: a) Almost exclusively coarse hair, b) Almost exclusively wool and very dense.
H1: a) Exclusively coarse hair, b) Exclusively wool (long
and dense) c) A coarse hairy mane.
Type: (represented by the symbol T)
Type is judged according to the degree to which the sheep
conforms to the general requirements of the breed. Emphasis
is placed on Conformation, Size and Fat Distribution when
determining type, while Color and Covering are of secondary
importance. 
Dorper & White Dorper Sheep-The Future
by Darroll Grant
Dorper sheep were introduced into the USA in 1995 with
selection since based on visual selection. Training in the use of
the Dorper breed standards by several South African Dorper
Inspectors and the use of good stock sense has resulted in
improved Dorper quality. The most attractive sheep may not
be the most profitable at producing quality meat.
There are at least two ways genetic contributions can be
measured. Genomic testing for specific production traits (like
checking for Rs for scrapie resistance) is nearing completion
and availability. As with other farm species, it will become less
expensive as more sheep are tested. Ultimately being able to
submit DNA (plucked hairs) from a day old lamb to a lab and
have genomically estimated breeding values (EBVs) within a
few weeks would allow wiser decisions on which animals to
keep and which to eat.
The technique currently available has been proven in other
livestock species. It has less out of pocket expense, but requires
more time on the part of the shepherd for the data collection.
Weights collected at birth, weaning, post weaning, yearling and
at maturity can be used with appropriate evaluation to predict
the genetic weight contribution a ram can make to his offspring.
Loin eye depth and fat cover measurements provide indications
of change in muscling and fat cover. The collected data can
be submitted to NSIP (USA) or to Lambplan in Australia for
evaluation. Confidence in the resulting values is increased with
data from more tested relatives.
Compare two rams with a 6 pound EBV difference in
weaning weight (assuming a high degree of accuracy). Since
one half of the EBV comes from each parent, the superior sire
should add 3 more pounds (this may vary due to the standard
deviation of the sire’s value) per lamb sired. That is $5.40
more per lamb at $1.80/pound. A superior ram can increase
the profitability of the operation. Other measurements can be
taken which relate to maternal ability, early puberty and parasite
resistance. Accelerated genetic progress is made when superior
ewes are mated to superior sires. Accumulation of the superior
genetics over generations will improve profitability.
US Dorper breeders are in a unique position. There are
many rams with superior numbers available in Australia. Semen
from some has been imported into the US and used in breeding
programs. The use of resulting offspring can provide a genetic
linkage to a number of relatives in different flocks resulting in
more accurate EBVs. Genetic improvements will improve the
profitability of Dorpers. Animals must also pass the phenotypic
evaluation. Excellence in breed standards and superior genetics
can be had in the same animal.
More info is available from NSIP or Lambplan.

FAQ’s
on
Dorper/White Dorper Sheep
What is the difference between the Dorpers and White
Dorpers?
The Dorper has a white body with a black head, while the
White Dorper is all white. Otherwise the two types are identical
but considered separate breeds. The coloration is a preference
as all other traits are basically equal. Often a White Dorper ram
is used in cross-breeding programs with solid white ewes. The
resulting offspring tend to be solid white. Out crosses using
Dorpers may be colorfully spotted for the first few generations.
Are all Dorpers polled?
Most Dorpers are without horns but many rams have scurs,
and some will have horns, but this should not disqualify a Dorper
ram from being stud quality. Experience has shown that horned
rams tend to be more masculine and have a stronger libido.
How much does a Dorper weigh?
Mature rams typically average around 230 pounds. Mature
ewes range between 180-210 lbs. However, one should not be
obsessed with mature weights. Feed efficiency is more important
than mature weight. The Dorper breeds excel at producing fast
growing lambs.
What is the productive life of a Dorper?
Under good management, a Dorper ewe should produce
lambs for 7 years or more.
Do they have a lot of twins and triplets?
This depends on available nutrition and genetics. Under
good range conditions, a 150 percent lamb crop is typical and
rates more like 180 percent with improved nutrition can be
achieved.
At what age can you start breeding ewe lambs?
Depending on the time of year, ewe lambs between 6-8
months may cycle, but better conception rates will be achieved
at 9-12 months and the later bred ewes will grow out better.
How many ewes can a Dorper ram cover?
Ram lambs can frequently cover 20-25 ewes in a 51-day
exposure. Yearling rams can usually cover 50 ewes.
Do Dorpers have to be sheared?
No. A Dorper should shed its covering each summer. Shedding ability is a trait that should be selected for in your breeding
stock. Because Dorpers are a meat breed, they are shown fully
shorn to emphasize their meat traits and excellent skin.
Are Dorpers parasite resistant?
Studies have shown that Dorpers tend to tolerate a parasite
burden better than other breeds. Many other factors influence
parasite problems but with proper management techniques,
deworming can be minimized even in higher rainfall areas.
How is the taste of Dorper meat?
Superb! Dorper lamb does not have the “mutton taste” that
causes so many Americans to avoid eating lamb. It is succulent
and fine textured. The purpose of the Dorper breed is to produce
prime lamb.
What about crossing a Dorper ram with wool-type ewes?
Early university trials have shown that the Dorper influence
will improve the meat qualities and growth rate of lambs from
popular commercial ewe breeds. However, the F1 lambs will
have a diminished wool quality.
Can you breed Dorper ewes any time of year?
Yes. Again, available nutrition has a major role in conception rates. Lambing intervals of 8 months, three lamb crops
every two years, is a common practice.
18
What about crossing Dorper Rams with hair-type ewes?
The Dorper has been very effective in increasing the growth
rate, carcass size and quality of all the typical hair-type breeds
such as the Barbados, Katahdin, St. Croix, the Mexican Pelibuey
and other breeds that are considered exotic types. Typically, the
75 percent Dorper crosses will exhibit the Dorper coloration
and conformation.
What is the Difference between Purebred and Fullblood?
The term “fullblood” means the sheep can trace it’s genetic
background only to sheep originally imported from South Africa.
“Purebred” means the sheep has been upgraded from American
stock and is at least 93% or 15/16ths Dorper genetics. Upgrading
was allowed in order to increase the numbers of Dorper sheep
after South Africa experienced an outbreak of hoof and mouth
disease and importation was no longer possible. The sheep are
shown together in the show ring with no preference for either
designation.
Can percentage Dorpers be registered?
Yes. The Dorper registry regulations allow for a “breedingup” program. Ewes and rams are considered purebred at 15/16ths
(93.75%) Dorper.
What is Typing?
American Dorper Sheep Breeders Society members can
have their Fullblood and American Purebred (upgraded to
93.75% Dorper genetics) sheep officially inspected under
the Breed Standard of Excellence. Under this system, five
types of quality are judged:
 Type 5- Very Good-Stud Quality
 Type 4- Above Average, Stud Quality
 Type 3- Average - First Selection
 Type 2- Poor or Below Average - Second Selection
 Type 1- Very Poor - Cull
An animal is typed based on the evaluations of the following:
Conformation (Head, Forequarter, Barrel,
Hindquarter, Sexual Organs)
 Size or Growth
 Distribution of Fat
 Color Pattern
 Covering
The ADSBS periodically holds judging courses, however,
at this time the Society relies on South African certified inspectors. Upon inspection, qualifying animals will be ear tagged
with appropriate color coded and sequentially numbered tags. Type 5 - Blue, Type 4 - Red, and Type 3 - White. The inspector
will apply the tags as the animals are being judged.

Cornerstone Dorpers
Nick & Regina Woodward, Allen, Oklahoma
Greetings Dorper Breeders and enthusiasts, What a year!
I am Nick Woodward owner of Cornerstone Dorpers in
South Central Oklahoma. The Dorper breed has become a
passion of mine to raise and promote quality full blood and
purebred dorpers. We have been
working hard to bring together
some of the best genetics in the
country here at Cornerstone. We
run 30 full blood and Purebred
black head dorper ewes and
have purchased 4 superb dorper
rams. We have been raising
Dorpers for several years and
slowly building our flock on
quality. The past two years we
have accelerated the quality of
our flock by purchasing two
other quality herds with some
powerful females.
This year we decided to run our first ad in the 2012
Dorper Journal and it features our four herd sires. Promoting
and raising dorper sheep just seems to come so natural. We
have had many customers and visitors this year and sold
all we have raised at the farm
and we want thank all who have
purchased our dorpers. It has been
a tough year here in Oklahoma
and Texas with the drought and
wild fires and yet these dorpers
have amazed me at how adaptable
to different conditions they really
are. WOW! What a special breed
of sheep. In my opinion I believe
that dorper sheep are superior over
all other breeds. My mission here
at Cornerstone is breeding quality
dorpers with a high level of breed
standards.

Why Dorpers?
by Lee Hazeltine
Contract Grazer
My use of Dorper genetics supports a number of goals that
I have for my sheep herds. Meat quality, carcass yield, and
feed conversion efficiency are three important components of
my program. Not producing wool also eliminates the need for
shearing and allows me to graze areas that contain things that
diminish wool quality.
Since the Dorper is a hair sheep rather than a wool producer,
the meat flavor has a minimum amount of “wool” flavor
generally associated with wool sheep that produce lanolin. This
results in a meat that is milder tasting and less “smelly”. For
many people lamb is too strongly flavored, and the hair breeds
produce a meat that is mild flavored and desirable.
Dorper sheep also have a high carcass yield at harvest,
especially at light (80-110 pounds) weight. Many of the sheep
today have been bred to optimize the yield at a high weight
(140-160 pounds), taking longer to get from birth to harvest.
This impairs the ability to raise the animals on seasonal grass
complexes, and also results in poorer carcass yields at light
weights.
Much of the work that I do involves grazing a wide variety
of plant types, some of which are of poor feed quality. In order
to have healthy sheep it is helpful to have animals that can
convert the forage at the highest efficiency. When I started
grazing I had both wool and hair type sheep, but the pure wool
sheep have been significantly culled due to their general lack
of conversion efficiency compared to the hair sheep. I keep a
few wool sheep in each herd as “indicators”. If they are OK,
the rest are excellent. Of the various hair breed types that I
have included over the years, the Dorper has performed the
best in both feed to meat conversion efficiency, as well as the
rate of growth.
Eliminating the need to be concerned about wool production
has given me more freedom to graze diverse and varied plant
complexes. The hair sheep do pick up stickers on their “top”
but they don’t seem to be affected as the location does not
interfere with nursing or bedding down.
Taken together the various benefits make inclusion of good
Dorper genetics an easy decision.

Rush
May I telephone in work requests?
Yes, but anytime a request is made over the telephone it
is considered rush and you will be charged rush fees. NOTE!
We need complete payment in order to release your work.
22
What if I need my papers fast?
NOTE! The average registration work takes less than
3 days and completed work is mailed back promptly. If
registration papers or other items are needed by a specific date,
you may request a RUSH order for an additional $5.00 per

Keep in mind, you are charged extra for that type of service.
Most importantly, when requesting RUSH service, write
“RUSH” on the outside of your envelope to speed mail sorting
time once your work arrives in the ADSBS office.
What if I only need to have a few registrations processed
on a “rush” basis?
RUSH requests must be sent to ADSBS separately from
regular work. Do not combine rush and regular work in the
same envelope, or be prepared to pay RUSH fees on the entire
work order.
Registrations
How do I register new animals?
You will need ADSBS’s “Application for Registration”
forms. You can obtain the Application for Registration forms by
requesting them from the ADSBS office, download them from
the website: www.dorper.org. You must be the recorded owner
of the dam at the time the lamb was born, in order to apply for
registration. If the sire was leased or borrowed, you will need
to submit a “Breeding Certificate” at the time you submit your
“Application for Registration.” You are not required to be an
ADSBS member to register, but you will pay the non-member
registration fees.
When should I apply for registrations?
To avoid the late registration fees, you will need to apply
for registration before the lamb is 18 months old.
How can I avoid paying non-member rates?
If you have an ADSBS or ADSBS Junior Membership,
it is critical that your animals be recorded under that exact
membership name. Otherwise, you will pay non-member
registration fees. Review the ownership of the animals and
make sure they are recorded in your exact membership name.
If they are not recorded in the exact membership name under
which you are paying your membership dues, you may wish to
change ownership of your animals by taking part in the “within
the family transfer” program.
What is the private flock name?
The private flock name is the name under which you choose
to register your new animals. Anyone who registers new sheep
has a private flock name. Your private flock will remain on
record unless a change is requested in writing. When filling out
ADSBS paperwork, the only time you list your private flock
name is on the Application for Registration.
We do not allow two of the same private flock names within
a particular state. Therefore, if you are choosing a flock name
for the first time and that name has been used, you will be asked
to select another flock name.
Your private flock name can be your initials, your last name,
your farm or ranch name or name or code of your choosing,
provided it is not already in use (outside other members of
your immediate family), and it complies with general policy.
NOTE! DO NOT transfer sheep under your flock name unless
your flock name is the same as your membership name.
Does every Animal need a unique private flock number?
Yes. We require that every animal submitted for registry
carry some type of unique, individual, numbered, identification.
For example, individual eartag numbers or tattoos.
May I change an animal’s private flock name and/or
number?
No. Once a sheep has been registered in the ADSBS, the
private flock name and number will not change. Even if the
animal is deceased, the private flock name and number remains
alive and you are not allowed to use it again.
23
What is a breeding certificate, and when will I need one?
If you are registering lambs sired by a ram you did not
own at the time the ewes were bred, we must have a written
breeding certificate. The breeding certificate must be signed
by the recorded owner of the ram (according to records on file
with the ADSBS). Breeding certificates are printed on the back
of the Applications for Registration forms, or they are available
separately from the ADSBS. In addition to the signature of the
ram’s owner, the breeding certificate must indicate the ram’s
private flock name and number and association registration
number. The date(s) of service must also be listed.
If a registered ewe was sold and she was bred, then the
back of the registration certificate marked “Certificate of
Service” should be filled out prior to transferring the ewe.
Who is considered the breeder of an animal?
The breeder is the recorded owner of the dam at the time
the ewe was bred.
Who is considered the owner of an animal?
The owner is the recorded owner of the dam at the time
the lamb was born.
What is Permanent Identification (if any)?
Permanent ID can be a tattoo, scrapie tag number or
electronic implant.
Can an animal be registered and transferred at the
same time?
Yes. An animal can be registered and transferred directly
to the new owner by completing the transfer information on
the Application for Registration form. This includes listing
the purchasers membership name, complete address, and date
of sale. A transfer fee applies in addition to the respective
registration fee.
Will the ADSBS forward registration certificates directly
to the new owner?
Yes, Any animal being transferred will be mailed to the
buyer from the ADSBS once full payment is received. If you
do not wish to have the registration certificate mailed to the
buyer, you will need to include a note stating that you would
like to have the paperwork returned to you.
What if I have a South African, Canadian or an Australia
registration certificate?
If you purchase a Fullblood or Purebred animal that
was registered in any of the Recognized Dorper Registry
Associations/Societies, and the animal was born in the
country of that registry association/society, that animal will
be eligible for re-registration with the American Dorper Sheep
Breeders’ Society. You will need to send to ADSBS the original
certificate from the Recognized Registry Association/Society
and appropriate fees. The ADSBS will assign the animal an
ADSBS registration number and return both certificates to
you. The ADSBS currently accepts South African, Canadian,
Australian and Mexican registry associations/societies as
Recognized Dorper Registry Associations/Societies.
24
Can I fax registration applications?
Yes, but we must receive complete payment to release
your work.
Transfers
How do I transfer an animal that has been registered?
Dorpers/White Dorpers registered with the ADSBS may
be transferred by sending the certificate of registration, along
with appropriate fees. The recorded seller must sign the back
of the certificate of registration, listing the date of sale and
the exact membership name and address of the purchaser. If
more than one certificate is sent in at a time, each certificate
must be completed with the signature and date of sale, as well
as the name and complete address of the new owner. Refer to
the “fee list” for fees.
Will ADSBS process a transfer without a signature from
the recorded owner?
No. ADSBS requires a written signature from the owner
on record. Unsigned transfer requests will be returned for a
signature authorizing the transfer.
How long do I have to record a transfer with the ADSBS
once I’ve made a sale or purchase?
To obtain the lowest rates, submit transfers to the ADSBS
for processing within 90 days of the sale date.
Can I fax transfers on animals that have been registered?
No. We must have the original certificate of registration.
What happens if all or part of my work cannot be
processed?
If work submitted cannot be processed due to incomplete
or incorrect information, you will be notified of the error.
Registry work that can not be processed will not be invoiced.
Remaining money would be credited to your account for
future work.
Corrections
How is an error corrected on a registration certificate?
The original owner is the only person that can request a
correction on an animal that was registered. If the error was
the ADSBS Office, there is no charge, otherwise a correction
fee would apply.
If I am not the original owner of an animal and the
scrapie tag has fallen out, can I replace the scrapie tag
and apply for a correction?
Yes, If the scrapie tag has fallen out and you have
replaced it with another scrapie tag, you will need to submit
the Certificate of Registration along with a note stating the
animal has been retagged with the new scrapie tag number.
A correction fee would apply.
May I fax a registration certificate for a correction?
No. The incorrect certificate and a written request
informing us of the error must be mailed to the office.
Duplicates
Dead Animals
How do I request a duplicate registration certificate?
The recorded owner of the animal may request a duplicate
certificate. We must have the request in writing with your
signature. You will need to provide us with the private flock
name and number and the registration number if known. A
duplicate fee would apply.
Do I need to inform ADSBS of animals that are deceased?
Yes. Registered animals that have died, slaughtered
or sold without registration certificates should be reported
to ADSBS so we can indicate that information on ADSBS
official records. Send in the registration certificates, and we
will mark the animal accordingly and retain the certificates
unless you indicate their return. If registration certificates are
not available, you may list the private flock name and number
and registration number of each animal on paper and sign it.
May I request a duplicate registration certificate with
a transfer?
Yes. If you are listed as the recorded owner and sold the
animal, you are entitled to request a duplicate with a transfer.
We need the request in writing. Please provide us with private
flock name, number and registration number along with the
date of sale, the exact membership name of the purchaser, their
address and telephone number if available. A transfer fee in
addition to the duplicate fee would apply.
May I fax a request for a duplicate certificate or
duplicate certificate with a transfer?
Yes. You may fax your written request for a duplicate
&/or a duplicate certificate with a transfer. NOTE! We need
complete payment in order to release your work.
Imported Semen
If you have imported semen from any of the recognized
Dorper Society’s, be sure to send all the paperwork needed to
register their offspring.
1) The complete flock name and number and the
registration number of the sire, and a copy of the certificate
would be helpful.
2) A signed semen transfer form from the owner of the
ram at the time semen was collected, or an email from the ram
owner stating semen was sold and the requestor is authorized
to register resulting offspring.
Rechristenings
Embryo Transfers (ET)
What is a rechristening?
Rechristening is officially adding a name of a sheep to
the ADSBS certificate of registration. The rechristened name
must not exceed 25 total letters and spaces in length. Once a
name has been used in the ADSBS, it cannot be reused under
the same exact spelling. To inquire about a particular name,
contact the ADSBS office. To rechristen an animal that has
been registered, send the certificate of registration along with
the name preference and the appropriate fee. Animals being
registered for the first time may also be rechristened at the
time of registration by including the rechristened name on the
application for registration form.
Once the animal has been officially rechristened, the name
is added to the animal’s certificate of registration above the
private flock name and number. The rechristened name does
not replace the private flock name and number which always
remains a part of the registration certificate.
If you have purchased embryo’s and you want to register
the offspring, be sure to include all paperwork with the
Applications for Registrations.
1) The complete flock name and number and the
registration number of the sire and the dam. A copy of the
certificate of registration would be helpful.
2) We will verify authorization of transfer of ownership
of the embryo by either an original statement from the breeder
of the embryos or an email from the original breeder, or a
susequent purchaser, if re-sold (note: the paper trail must
include a statement from the original breeder, validating the
origin of the embryo).
Membership Lists/Labels
Can I obtain the ADSBS Membership List?
Yes. You must be an ADSBS member. You may request
a Membership Mailing List containing current members and
their addresses. The fee is $20.00 and please specify if you
would like a list format or labels.
Payment
What is the ADSBS’s policy concerning payment and
credit?
Complete payment is required at the time work is
processed. ADSBS accepts checks, money orders or credit
cards. When using your credit card, please list the type of card
(MasterCard or Visa,), the complete card number, cardholder’s
name and expiration date. Credit card information is included
at the bottom of the “current fee list”. Please keep in mind
that a 8% charge is added when using a credit card. If you
do not include full payment with your order, ADSBS will not
release paperwork until full payment is received.

Penny, Editor Farmers Guardian, and Bryn
Edmunds, HSBC Senior Agricultural Manager
for North Wales and Chester, presented the award.
Nature, Nurture and Nudity
Representing the only Scholar presenting from Scotland at
the 2008 Nuffield Conference, Charley Walker, gave his paper on
‘Simplified, profitable and productive sheep and beef farming’,
along with recommendations to develop a robust system for
simplifying beef and sheep management by relying much more
on the fundamentals nature, nurture and also nudity.
Reminding delegates that 30%, almost one third, of the cost
of sheep and beef production is labor, Mr. Walker said that on a
family farm this often translates into long hours, with little time
for management and a poor quality of family life. “Our quest for maximizing production has often led us
into genetics and systems that require high levels of input,
particularly labor. But high productivity does not necessarily
generate high profit,” he pointed out. “Success should be
measured by net profit, not by ability to maximize production.
We should judge ourselves by the results of our efforts, rather
than priding ourselves on the effort itself.
“Wouldn’t it be great if we could find a better way - a
cheaper way, an easier way,” he added. “Well, thanks in large
part to my Nuffield Scholarship, I have found a better way.”
Mr. Walker travelled in Europe, North America, Australasia
and China. He learned that in business, as in nature, it is not the
strongest that survive, nor the most intelligent, but it is those
that are most adaptable to change.
One of Charley’s Australian hosts made the comment: ‘If
you breed an animal that makes you money and doesn’t cause
you hassle, you’ll soon get to like the look of it!’ And, his
words really stuck. They summed up the business-like attitude
28
of many of the breeders that he met on his travels. “They did not
let tradition or emotion stand in their way,” observed Charley.
“They simply could not afford to.”
He outlined three fundamental principles when selecting
easily manage breeding stock - their ability to give birth, suckle
and rear their progeny without assistance, minimizing of labor
and veterinary inputs by selection against lameness, poor
constitution and disease, and the capability to perform well on
grass and forage as opposed to concentrate feeds.
He encouraged breeders to take control of maternal genetics
by operating self-replacing herds or flocks, or by finding proven
sources of breeding stock.
“Animals requiring individual attention should be culled
and their progeny should not be used for breeding. Farmers
should concentrate on female stock for the farm environment
and on male stock for the market environment,” he advised.
Breeders must also take a more pro-active approach towards
performance recording, to help improve the selection and
demonstrate the commercial benefits of their stock to clients,
he said.
Nurture and human intervention
During his scholarship, Mr. Walker also observed flocks
and herds which usually lambed and calved outdoors with
little or no human intervention. Despite this, their lambing and
calving performance was as good as many in the UK and many
producers, particularly sheep, considered it important not to
interfere with stock. The saving in labor, housing and medicine
was dramatic.
“Nurture is not about lavish individual care and attention
- it is about the management of flocks and herds, and their
interaction with the environment. “Once the right genetics are in place, management can
focus on two key areas - reproductive efficiency and grazing
management. Amazingly, lambing and calving, the area to which
we often devote so much of our efforts, is something which can
be left alone, as long as the supporting management is sound. “Our focus should be on the management of whole flocks
and herds, rather than on meddling with individuals.
Nudity and wool shedding
Believing wool to be a cost rather than a benefit to UK
farmers, Mr. Walker proposed wool shedding genetics should
be used to breed the wool off sheep to eliminate the cost and
stress associated within this area.
“Wool shedding sheep offer significant cost savings, mainly
in terms of labor - no shearing, no crutching, no tail docking, no
fly-strike, less shepherding and less gathering, with consequent
benefits to growth rate and welfare. The loss of saleable wool
is far outweighed by the cost savings achieved. “What’s really exciting is that there are already many
wool-shedding breeds around the world and also in the UK;
for example, the native Wiltshire Horn and its modern relative,
the Easycare.
“With these genetics there is potential for ewes and their
2011 Youth
National Champion White Dorper
Rams, Ewes and show Wethers for sale
lambs to remain unhandled from the period prior to lambing until
weaning in late summer. This is not a gimmick; these genetics
will fundamentally change the way that we manage sheep.
“Just because we are doing something in a certain way
and because everybody else is doing it, does not mean it is
the best way.” Mr. Walker reminded delegates about his three
principles on which to base the selection of breeding stock,
along with his proposal for ‘nudity’ and wool shedding breeds
which is a course of action that will radically alter the way that
we farm sheep. “Everything that I have shared with you today relates
to what we are doing on our farm at home. I am enjoying
implementing change and helping others to do the same.”

A Visit To The Dorper Course...
Tennessee Hosts Junior Course, Show &
Sale, and Judges School
by Tracy Burden, University of Kentucky
When I was asked to write-up an article for the Tennessee
Sheep Producer’s Association Annual Field Day in conjunction
with the American Dorper Sheep Breeders’ Society (ADSBS)
events held July 21 through July 24, I said “sure, I’ll be down
there anyway”. Then I started thinking, how could a Kentucky
born and raised guy find anything good to say about a function
in Tennessee? Someone really dropped the ball on this one
(not like a football but more like a basketball)! I was raised
being told the only true sign of greatness in Tennessee was
the big green one outside of Knoxville on I75 North stating
“Lexington”.
Well I thought I would swallow my pride and try to be
as professional as possible. In all fairness, I attended the
2010 Annual Field Day last year and was very impressed
30
with the program, the attendance and the
facilities! So impressed that I hate to say
I was looking forward to going back to
TN weeks prior to the date. For the ones
that have never attended an event in the
Tennessee Tech, Hyder Burks Pavilion
let me tell you this is one of the nicest
livestock/educational facilities I have
seen. The pavilion was very functional
for our small ruminant animals and the
attending guests. Everyone knows to
accommodate people in July in TN the
AC better be running and in the show/
sales/educational area it was cool! Animal
agriculture centers, like this one, should
be located throughout our great country
to educate more farm and nonfarm people about agriculture.
Before I talk about the activities let me take a few lines to
introduce the Dorper breeds to anyone not familiar with these
highly productive sheep. The breeds originated in South Africa
in 1942 with the black headed “Dorper” and in 1964 with the
solid white “White Dorper”. More often than not the breeds
are termed as a hair breeds, but this is simply not true. The
South Africans refer to Dorpers as non-woolled. Dorpers are
known for their ability to shed their coats in the hotter months.
Dorpers may have a thin layer of wool down the topline for
protection from the sun and biting insects. This characteristic
sets them apart from other hair breeds. Since Dorpers shed
off the wool/hair blend this eliminates the need for shearing. I
receive many calls from producers in our area needing to find
someone to shear a small flock of sheep. The Dorper breeds are
a perfect solution to shearing while providing a meaty carcass
at marketing time. With our current record setting market
prices for slaughter lambs the Dorper slogan “The right breed
for a better bottom line!” may be worth taking a closer look.
The ADSBS kicked off the four day event with a Dorper
Course on Thursday and Friday. This course was aimed at
educating mainly producers and possible producers about
breed characteristics of Dorper and White Dorper sheep.
This course has rarely been offered in the United States and
has only been taught by South Africans. This year was the
first time American instructors presented the information and
course materials. The 2 day course concentrated on keeping
Dorper breed characteristics to provide surplus meat from a
hardy-adaptable sheep. This breed thrives in south Texas,
coastal regions of Oregon, cooler northern states,
and the always changing southeast! We need to
keep it this way.
Friday evening’s Southern States Dorper Show
took front stage providing proof of adaptability.
Producers from Texas, Virginia, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, and
Ohio presented an outstanding group of Dorper
and White Dorper breeding stock. I have a very
limited knowledge of the show aspect, but I do
know Dorper breeders are some of the nicest and
helpful breeders you will find. At all the Dorper
shows across the country breeders are very willing
to help each other out. I have seen, numerous
times, one producer showing a potential buyer
someone else’s sheep that may work better in their
flock. Dorper growers love this breed!
Saturday morning was the Tennessee Sheep
Producer’s Association’s Annual Field Day.
President Reyes Rich welcomed the outstanding
crowd. This was followed by Greg Brann,
NRCS Grazing Lands Specialist in Tennessee,
talking on Maximizing Pasture Usage through
Multiple Species Grazing. Mr. Brann spoke on
using grazing and browsing animals in the same
pastures to maximize production. His example
of cattle, goats, and sheep grazing/browsing
the same pastures in a rotational grazing
system provided benefits beyond production.
Browsers provide weed control and overall
pasture cleaning while producing additional
meat. Cattle provide the added benefit of
consuming unwanted parasites with the grasses
that are detrimental to the production of smaller
ruminants. This system works very well; with
the major disadvantage being time spent rotating
pastures and moving fences. If you live in the
southeast rotational grazing should be utilized
in your flock or herd.
Next up was Paul Rodgers, Deputy Director
of Policy for the American Sheep Industry
Association. Mr. Rodgers discussed and took questions on
Key 2011 Federal Legislative and Regulatory Issues Facing
Producers. His very informative presentation drove home one
key point: we as producers need to know the current issues and
take a stand for ourselves. There are so many groups willing
to address issues in animal production, but not many will be
on our side! Producers need to take advantage of local, state,
and national industry groups to help preserve our way of life.
Mr. Brann returned to talk on Using Annual Forage Crops
to Increase Grazing Capacity. With the current hot summer
we are experiencing, this was a great presentation for using
warm season forages. He also included stockpiling forages to
graze deep into the winter months. I wish more people could
have listened to this talk and put the ideas in motion at their
home farm. Mr. Brann stated every producer should have
31
goals attached to their production system. Goals are needed
to “improve the quality of life” and to give you a “vision for
your farm future”.
After the wrap up, the ADSBS held a Youth Showmanship
competition. Supporting our youth never goes without reward.
A great bunch of hard-working youth turned out to display
their competitiveness and spirit in working with Dorpers. An
industry without youth will soon die off, and I was so glad to
see farm kids doing what farm kids do best!
As the evening grew closer and the crowd grew larger,
the final puzzle piece for a good sale was put into place. It
seemed as if as quickly as the auctioneer started
up the sale the gavel had fallen on all 71 lots. The
sale grossed almost $62,000 and the lots averaged
$872. That’s a little better than market value! For
all of you thinking that’s outrageous, you need to
look deeper. Many of the top Dorper and White
Dorper breeders in the country brought sheep to
sale. The purebred and fullblood rams averaged
$725 per head. When ½ of your lamb crop is your
ram and finished market lambs are bringing close
to $2 per pound it takes very few added pounds to
let your ram pay for himself! Producers all over
are starting to figure this out because when I went
out to the parking lot and looked at the sale results
I saw many different states. Besides the previous
mentioned states sheep were sold to Michigan,
South Carolina, North Carolina, Pennsylvania,

32
Indiana, and Maine! If producers can drive that
far and pay $3.50 per gallon for gasoline and buy
livestock; these animals, especially rams, were
bargains for us living in the area.
ADSBS finished with a Judges School to
educate judges from across the country on how to
look at Dorper sheep. Dorpers cannot be judged
the same as show sheep breeds. Dorpers were
bred and designed to perform in the field and not
for the show arena. I’m not saying they shouldn’t
be seen in the show arena. I’m saying the show
arena needs to be adapted or educated for Dorpers
and White Dorpers.
I would encourage everyone to plan a trip
to Cookeville next July. If the excitement of the
Dorper breeds is not your cup of tea, I hope the
educational opportunities could make this trip
worth your while. If nothing sounds appealing let me throw
one last comment into the mix, Bill Kuecker of the TSPA Board
of Directors can grill and smoke like no other and Mindy and
Ginger Rivers prepared home cooked meals all weekend long!
I almost didn’t want to go back home, but the drive back to
Kentucky was very satisfying knowing it’s a great time to be in
the sheep industry. I had survived four days in my blue attire
without too many bruises, and I can now say I know exactly
what a whitetail feels like on opening morning of deer season.
Godspeed.
