Our Sheep

Olde English Babydoll Southdown Sheep are sometimes referred to as miniature Southdowns but in fact, they are a true heritage breed – the original Southdowns, and ancestors to all other Down breeds.

Babydolls were never "miniaturized.” On the contrary, Olde English Southdowns were bred with larger varieties to create what are known today as American Southdowns. The Babydoll Southdown "miniature" name was established to distinguish the heritage breed from the taller Southdowns, and to maintain the original breed standard.
