Suffolk
Suffolk is one of the best meat breeds in the world. Rams are widely used for crossbreeding to increase the growth rate of lambs, weight, and yield of lean carcasses.
Suffolk sheep are a large meat-wool breed with a well–developed muscular relief. The weight of adult rams ranges from 113 to 159 kg, the weight of ewes varies from 81 to 113 kg. The average height at the withers of males is 68–80 cm, females — 61–74 cm.
The fertility of Suffolk sheep is high — 130–140 lambs per 100 ewes, twins and triplets are often born. The interval between lambings is on average 12 months. The age of sexual maturity is 6 months.
The shearing weight of adult sheep is from 2.5 to 3.5 kg, rams — 4–5 kg. The length of the wool is 5–10 cm. The yield of washed wool reaches 60%.
Suffolk sheep are a precocious breed. With intensive feeding, the weight of lambs at the age of 3 months is 35–40 kg. The slaughter yield is 50–55%.
