What our farmers have to say about Fernleaf Romneys
" I have been buying Fernleaf Romneys for twelve years and have halved my drenching efforts and cost while still achieving good weights for finishing stock and 150% lambing. Last year dagging 1,400 ewes and 2,000 lambs in December we only collected one fadge of dags. My aim – Resistance to Parasites – Reduce Dagging – Facial Eczema Tolerance. I no longer get any clinical signs of FE in my flock. "
Neil Hadland
Manager, Parihaka Station, Taranaki
" I choose to buy Fernleaf Romneys above any others I’ve seen because they are sound sheep that give me a good fleece and achieve what they do with a Minimal Chemical Input – close to organic. "
Ian Ellery
Organic farmer, Waikato
" I have been been buying Fernleaf Rams since 2004.
​
They have helped me to build up my flock’s worm resistance – reducing drenching input and dagging work and Fernleaf Rams have been a major part of raising my lambing rate to 150% – on hill country.
I also like the fact that, with Fernleaf Rams, what you see is what you get – rams are presented in their natural conditions."

" We have an easycare hill country commercial ewe flock and a ram breeding enterprise as well.
Our goals include Romneys with top fertility/ meat and wool genetics coupled with
FE tolerance/ worm resistance and no dags.
We source our stud sires from Fernleaf to attain these genetics. "
