The Wedel Flock started in 1958. Dad imported stud rams from New Zealand to improve size and quality. This New Zealand influence was an incredible success not only for us but many of our customers. We have always selected for length, muscle, and good Southdown breed type. When the Spider problem in the Southdowns began in the 1990's, we tested our rams. We were fortunate to always have NN results. We have continued to only use NN rams since.

When the Scrapie problem crept into the Southdowns a few years ago, we were proactive in testing our rams. Now we have decided that testing our ewe flock was important in maintaing high quality for our customers. We have used all Genotypes but now are striving to raise only QR and RR lambs. Below is a percentage breakdown of the Codon 171 testing we have undertaken the past 5 years. We thank all of our customers who have selected our sheep for their length, muscle, and breed type. Now we will strive to bring potential customers those traits along with QR, RR, and NN sheep.
