Welcome to Twin Ridges! We are dedicated to produce excellent quality dorper breeding sheep for the show ring and commercial flocks. Dorpers are non-selective grazers, easy keepers and to top it all off they are hair sheep. Dorpers keep cost down while producing hardy, fast growing lambs with excellent carcass characteristics with great flavor.

ABOUT TWIN RIDGES

We are located in the far northeast corner of Missouri, just 4 miles of Hwy 27, “Avenue of the Saints.” We started off raising Suffolk sheep and decided to make the switch to Dorpers after purchasing fullblood dorpers 2006. Our ewe herd consists of 100 plus registered dorper ewes and 50 head of commercial Dorper ewes. All ewes are bred by registered fullblood dorper rams. Dorper lambs handled the cold weather better and gained faster while their dams required less grain and average to poor quality hay to maintain their fleshy condition. I am completely impressed with these small framed HEAVY packages and you will be too!

Our current breeding program includes Fullblood, Purebred, and Percentage Dorper ewes. Our percentage dorpers have a White Dorper, Katahdin, and Suffolk based, that gives them a better shedding coat from the Katahdin and White Dorper and increased weight gain and mature weight from the suffolks. In 2010 we began an accelerated lambing program and have been very pleased with the results. Rams are placed in with the ewes three times a year for a period of 30-45 days. We have 3 lamb crops in January, April, and October. We select for top performance based on productivity, conformation, and shedding.
