Racka sheep are a distinctive breed of Zackel type, originating from Hungary. One of their most striking features is their long, spiral-shaped horns, which are present in both ewes and rams. These unique cork-screw horns protrude almost vertically from the top of the head, with mature males often boasting horns measuring two feet or more, while the minimum standard length is around 50 cm (20 inches) for rams and 30 cm (12-15 inches) for ewes.

In addition to their captivating appearance, Racka sheep are valued for their versatility in agricultural settings. They are raised for various purposes including milk, wool, and meat production. Their hardiness makes them well-suited for different environments and management systems. Due to their ability to thrive and adapt, Racka sheep are often utilized in crossbreeding programs, where their survivability traits can be passed on to their offspring, enhancing the resilience of hybrid breeds.
