About Leccese SheepAbout Leccese Sheep



The Leccese, affectionately known as the Moscia Leccese, sheep, trace their lineage to the ancient Zackel sheep of Asia, a testament to their storied ancestry steeped in centuries of pastoral tradition. Characterized by their distinctive not-so-curled woolly hanging coat, they exude an air of rustic charm that harkens back to their nomadic origins.

With a visage marked by rosy skin and a pristine white coat adorned with striking black spots adorning their breastbone, the Leccese sheep cut a striking figure against the pastoral backdrop of their homeland. Their black short-haired muzzle and limbs, whether plain or spotted, add a touch of rugged elegance to their overall appearance, a testament to their resilience and adaptability.

In times past, the Leccese sheep were valued for their multifaceted contributions, serving as stalwart companions in wool, meat, and milk production. However, in the ever-evolving landscape of modern agriculture, their role has shifted, with a predominant focus on milk production highlighting their enduring legacy as esteemed providers of nourishment and sustenance. Today, the Leccese sheep stand as custodians of tradition, embodying the timeless spirit of resilience and adaptability that defines their breed.
