Babydoll Rams
When we first started looking for stud sheep that met with our look and size back in 2009 we found there were only a small number of breeders that had stock available for sale.
We eventually purchased one ram and two ewes from Hillgrove Stud in Kyneton Victoria. At that time the stud was owned and managed by Murray & Judy Peart who still had the last of the flocks bred by the founding stud owners, the Metcalf family.
James Metcalf of Hill borough farm founded his Southdown stud "Hillgrove" in 1921. He imported into Australia, from the United Kingdom, many fine examples of English Southdowns and, with his sons, had great success in the show ring.
Our stock have been selected to have the same look and quality of the traditional 1930 to 1960 type of Southdown. Using the services of animal breeding centres such as Westbreed and Genstock has allowed us to complete three successful Artificial Insemination programs.
We have stored semen available for sale.
