Welcome to the Welsh Halfbred website for information about one of Britain’s most successful crossbred ewes
THE WELSH HALFBRED
The standards the founder members set for their Welsh Halfbred sales were an innovation in the 1950s but they began to be copied and are now taken for granted at all commercial ewe sales.
The Welsh Halfbred is not the biggest ewe, nor does she boast the highest lambing percentages. But she has proved herself over many years to be an economical producer of quality lambs on both upland and lowland farms.
