Characteristics: Suffolk Down sheep originated in England as a result of crossing 'Southdown' rams with 'Norfolk Horned' ewes. The outcome was an improved breed with excellent qualities.

Male sheep weigh between 110 to 160 kg, while females range from 80 to 110 kg. Their wool is of medium quality, with a fiber diameter between 25.5 and 33 microns, and the length of the wool staple is around 50 to 90 mm.
