About Voskop SheepAbout Voskop Sheep



The Voskop, also known as Fox Head sheep, shares ancestry with the Ardense sheep, originally brought to the lush Flemish meadows for fattening purposes. These sheep are characterized by their moderate size, with rams typically weighing between 70 and 80 kg (154-176 lbs.) and ewes ranging from 55 to 70 kg (121-154 lbs.).

Ewes of the Voskop breed demonstrate good maternal instincts, weaning an average of 1.7 lambs per birth. Their wool is typically a pale brown hue, lacking any spotting or distinctive markings. Renowned for their hardiness, Voskop sheep exhibit resilience in various environmental conditions, including both dry and damp climates, as well as cold temperatures.

In terms of meat production, Voskop sheep are highly regarded for the excellent quality and taste of their meat, making them sought after for both commercial and traditional farming purposes. This combination of adaptability, maternal qualities, and meat production prowess establishes the Voskop as a valuable breed within the agricultural landscape.
