Breeding Quality Rams And Ewes Since 2011
Hopea Suffolk Stud was founded in 2011 with 10 stud ewes and a stud ram. Since then, our current breeding ewe numbers have increased to 117 (2024). Our bloodlines include some of the top studs from both Australia and New Zealand with sires and ewes being selected for type, carcase attributes and genetic qualities.
Hopea White Suffolk Stud was founded in 2013 with the purchase of 65 stud ewes. This has increased to 165 breeding ewes (2024). The white Suffolk selection criteria requires carcase and muscling ability, white Suffolk type, structure and balance.
At Hopea Stud our objectives are focused on the adequate growth from birth to weaning to allow our consumers to reach the prime lamb market earlier with better results. We also want our sheep to have good confirmation and structural attributes that meet the breed standards, with clean heads and legs.
At Hopea we are very commercially focused and strive to achieve the best growth and muscle from terminal lambs out of merinos and first cross ewes
The prime lamb market also creates the need to have ease of lambing and survivability rates to gain the full potential of both the rams and ewes. We strive to have excellent muscling throughout the entirety of the body of the sheep, a strong constitution and doing ability.
