[QUOTE="Jacob, post: 1375843, member: 13472"] We are looking at the possibility of running hair sheep behind the cattle. I have been doing a ton of research trying to decide if this is a path we want to go down. does any other cattle producer on here run hair sheep? I am looking at all the breeds. I like the Dorper but understand the twining rate is not high which is a issue for me. From my research I'm leaning towards the Royal White. which is a cross between the dorper and St croix. What breed or cross breed would you suggest and why? Do you run the sheep with the cows? Before the cows or After the cows? Have you notice improved pasture health by running sheep? Do you find the ratio of one cow per one ewe is about correct without adding additional pasture? we have high tensile wire do you find this an issue? [/QUOTE]
