Norsk Spælsau
Description
Origin: The breed has ancient roots and is believed to be descended from the old Norse sheep that were brought to Norway by the Vikings.
Appearance: Norsk Spælsau sheep are medium-sized with a distinctive short tail. They have a double coat, with a soft undercoat and a longer, coarser outer coat. This makes their wool particularly suitable for various textile uses.
Adaptability: They are well-adapted to the harsh climates of Norway, thriving in both coastal and mountainous regions. Their hardiness makes them suitable for extensive farming systems.
Meat and Wool: The breed is valued for both its meat and wool. The meat is known for its high quality and flavor, while the wool is prized for its versatility and durability.
Conservation: Norsk Spælsau is considered a heritage breed, and efforts are made to preserve its genetic diversity and traditional farming practices associated with it.
Behavior: They are known for their good mothering abilities and ease of lambing. The breed is also relatively easy to manage due to its docile nature.
