Wiltipolls x Dorpers
We have had Wiltipolls since 1993 and in the last 4 years have used a white Dorper ram with our ewes, as well as Wiltipoll rams: we have around 200 ewes.
The white Dorper has increased the muscling on some of the the progeny without loss of the large frame of the Wiltshire. However other progeny have developed into smaller framed sheep.
As yet, we don't believe that the Wiltshire or Dorper breeds can produce terminal sires that equal PDs, Suffolks and Texals but they do offer a maternal line which is a godsend given the current shambles of our wool industry.
