Traits

Ewes weigh in at 70–90 kg and stand 72–78 cm tall, while rams range from 80–130 kg and 75–83 cm in height—and they’re as calm as they are charming!

Valais Blacknose sheep are naturally docile, friendly, and endlessly curious, making them the perfect companions for small block owners. Their striking black markings on the nose, eyes, ears, knees, ankles, hocks, and feet contrast beautifully with their snowy white coat, giving them that iconic “cuddly toy” look.

With fleece that grows around 30 cm each year, they’re soft, fluffy, and impossible not to love. And with a little patience, they’ll even take sheep nuts straight from your hand—making them as interactive as they are adorable!
