Southdown sheep
Sheep
The Southdown sheep are sometimes called “babydoll” or “teddy bear” sheep because they have the sweetest smiling faces! These sheep grow up very quickly.
They come from Sussex, and they were first introduced by a man named John Ellman in 1761 at Place Farm in Glynde. Their friendly faces and cute, fluffy wool make them a favourite!
Southdown fleeces have been used to make duvets and mattresses because of how soft they are!
