Cormo Sheep

Cormo sheep were developed in Tasmania in the 1960s by breeding Corriedale rams with Saxon Merino ewes. Their wool is fine, ranging from 17-23 microns, and can be worn next to the skin. Lyon Acres has recently sent off some coated Cormo fleeces to the mill to be processed into combed top. Hopefully this fall it will be available for purchase.

My Cormo Herd:

Picture
Trudy

​Trudy is a bit camera shy. She gave birth to our first Cormo lamb and has been an excellent mother. 





Picture
Ingrid

Ingrid is a friendly ewe who loves to be scratched. She gave birth to Thor.

Picture
Iris

Iris is our first Cormo ever born on our farm. She has been extremely friendly since the day she was born. Apparently she did not receive the memo informing her that she is a lamb, not a puppy. When she was smaller, she used to jump up until she was picked up. (She's actually much bigger now.)

Picture
Thor

Thor is a shy wether. He likes to observe what is going on from a distance. (He's also much bigger now. I seriously need to take new photos!)

Picture
Odin

Odin is a handsome Cormo ram.
