          OUR GOALS

          K Bar K Farm is a breeder of production-oriented Polled Dorset sheep in central Pennsylvania that strives to produce high-quality Dorset rams and ewes that maintain the breed characteristics of the true Dorset.

           

          Our breeding goals include:

          *   Mothering and milking ability

          *   Out of season breeding

          *   Acceleration

          *   Prolificacy

          *   Carcass/muscling traits,

           

          and, most importantly-


          *   The ability to perform in a low-input, forage-based system

          GENETICS

          Cross-flock estimated breeding values (EBV) through the National Sheep Improvement Program (NSIP) have been used in our genetic selection since 2000.

           

          Dorset genetics were imported from England, the motherland of the Dorset breed, to improve performance and breed type.


          Dorset genetics from Australia were imported for parasite resistance and carcass traits.
