Beltex - the double muscled sheep
Beltex is primarily a terminal sire to cross with British
sheep and half-bred continental sheep. The breed's main characteristics
are double-muscled hindquarters, coupled with fine bones. This ensures
maximum killing-out percentage of the finished lamb.
Finished lambs yield a high killing out percentage and a carcase with
well-fleshed legs, good eye muscle and a long loin. The finished lamb
is sought after for its superior conformation both in the home and export
market. |
