Beltex - the double muscled sheep

Champion Beltex, a ewe from Stephen PotterBeltex 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.
