The Breed
Our Badger Face sheep are an ancient native Welsh breed, which are hardy, medium sized sheep, with rams having impressive horns.
These sheep are attractive, full of character and produce superb meat.
There are two types:
We farm Torddu, the strengths of this type are the quality of the meat, their hardiness and how well they grow and develop.

Our Badger Face Sheep
We have kept Badger Faced sheep at Knowle Farm since 2021, starting out with 'Alder' and 'Blackthorn'.
Apart from the necessity of bringing new rams onto the farm, our Badger Face sheep and Herdwick sheep are closed flocks.
Our lamb is truly grass fed, growing slowly on mother's milk, grass and our own meadow hay to produce the best possible taste.
We finish our lambs at approximately 33-40kg.
Please contact us for availability of lamb and mutton boxes.
