Contact SupplierThe Cheviot is a breed of white faced sheep which gets its name from a range of hills in north Northumberland and the Scottish Borders. Cheviots are small, but they are primarily considered a meat breed of sheep - producing well-muscled carcasses and growing at a moderate pace. Cheviot sheep also produce wool, though not as much (and not as high quality) as sheep breeds raised primarily for their wool production. Cheviot sheep can live in a wide range of climates as well as in areas that are scarce in feed: these sheep are hardy animals with sturdy, muscular frames. The Cheviot sheep breed makes an excellent choice for young children enrolled in 4-H - a popular breed of sheep for show due to their smaller size and alert nature.
