I am not familiar with the Romney I Norway ,but them look great !!! Interesting 🤝👍🇳🇴

[@HillCountryFarmer]

They originate in England. They’ve have been the most widely farmed sheep in NZ for the past 180 years.

No quarantine drench?

[@HillCountryFarmer]

No. My theory is that alot of the time you end up only killing the non resistant worms then your left with resistant worms. New worms could be a good thing in my case 😅.

[@HillCountryFarmer]

Would you say I’m wrong?

[@TonyDonnellan-h9t]

Do you have to sheaar the rommeys twice a yeaar?

[@HillCountryFarmer]

We do

[@IanHouliston]

Are you making money with wool. Were going sheading.

[@HillCountryFarmer]

Nope😬. Fair enough. If they can grow like a Romney or terminal then it’s a no brainer. But they’ve got over 60-100years of breeding for NZ conditions in the romneys whereas the shedders are fairly new
