Bleu du Maine

The Bleu du Maine breed is famed for it's exceptional mothering abilities, easy lambing with lots of milk! Using the pure Bleu ram on Texel type or hill ewes will produce you a fantastic replacement ewe & increase your lambing percentage. The Bleu ewe crossed with Beltex & other terminal sires such as Texel & Charollais will again bring you more lambs & more lambs hopefully equals more profit!
