CHEVIOT MULES

The Cheviot Mule is growing in popularity due to its ability to rear quality lambs, lambs produced out of the Cheviot Mule have the leaness & conformation required for today's markets. The Cheviot Mule is the offspring of a North Country Cheviot ewe with a Traditional Type Bluefaced Leicester sire.

When crossed with a terminal sire, either native or continental, Cheviot Mules produce top quality prime lambs that generate a greater return at market than almost any other breed.

As a top performing hill breed, both the Park and Hill varieties of North Country Cheviots truly put their stamp on the Cheviot Mule, more than any other Cheviot type sheep.
