Welcome to Red Kite Farms
Here at Red Kite Farms, located in the Chiltern Hills, we have fallen in the love with the Valais Blacknose. They are definitely the cutest sheep in the world and being one of the more intelligent breeds, they make very good companions!
Our Flock
An interest in rare sheep developed including Herdwick, Soay, Jacob sheep and finally we discovered Blacknose Swiss Valais. Everyone at Red Kite Farms just learned to love the Valais breed. We breed at the topmost quality and our lambs are usually purchased to improve the pedigree of other flocks.
Valais Blacknose – The Breed
The breed originates in the mountains of the Swiss Canton of Valais and the Bernese Oberland. They were first documented in the 15th Century. They are a mountain breed, well adapted to grazing on stony pastures. Both rams and ewes have horns. They are classed as a dual purpose breed and have been reared for meat and wool.
