Navajo-Churro Sheep

 

Did you know............

 

Navajo-Churro were the first sheep brought to the Americas.

Navajo-Churro can have up to four horns.

Navajo-Churro are prized for wool, milk, and meat.

 

I was attracted to the Navajo-Churro breed because of my love for Spanish sheep's milk cheese.  I have come to respect this hearty breed of sheep for their other wonderful attributes such as amazing and colorful wool, easy lambing, and good mothering instincts. 

 

Navajo-Churro are wary scrappers able to survive on their own in rough country.  They will come up to you for grain, but remain wary as they eat it.  This actually is a comfort with the males as they can have huge horns that I find quite intimidating.  Thankfully they don't show aggressiveness towards humans.

Rotational Grazing

We have been using rotational grazing to feed our sheep and are working to get all the timing right between the various hay, grain, and nut crops and the sheep's needs for breeding, lambing, and growing.
