White-headed Suffolk sheep
White-headed Suffolk sheep: Originally from England, UK. The white Suffolk sheep is a high-quality dual-purpose breed (meat and wool) carefully developed from the black-headed Suffolk sheep. In terms of production performance, it not only retains the large body size of the original black-headed Suffolk (adult rams weigh 100–110 kg, adult ewes 70–80 kg), rapid growth, and excellent meat production traits. Moreover, because the white Suffolk sheep is entirely white, its offspring will not exhibit black or other mixed-colored wool in crossbreeding, making it more suitable for improving local dual-purpose meat-and-wool sheep breeds through hybridization.
