Sheep Genetics
Ashton Glen Coopworth Stud. Suffolk Stud. Suftex and Beltex Crosses.
In 2018 in addition to our Coopworth Stud we registered a Suffolk Stud. We also purchased some Suftex ewes (hoggets) with the purpose of crossing with the two purebred Beltex rams we purchased in the autumn.
The Coopworth Stud ewes have been mated with our own high ranking Coopworth rams and a selection of the stud ewes have gone to the Beltex rams along with the Suffolk & Suftex ewes.
All stud animals are SIL recorded.
In 2019 we purchased a third Beltex Ram and more Suffolk & Suftex hoggets.
We are impressed with all the progeny and this 2019 sale we have a good selection of 2 tooth rams for sale.
They will be sold at our Ram Sale in Gore at the A&P Grounds on 4th December. See Ram Sales page for more information

Pictured here is the first of the Beltex X Coopworths (2018).
These are a New Zealand and possible world FIRST Coopworth x Beltex.
Will be an interesting journey combining the highest rating dual purpose breed in New Zealand with an exciting new meat breed.
