The detail
Polypays were developed at the US Sheep Experiment Station in Idaho in the late 1960s from four breeds. They are known for high fertility and the ability to lamb more than once a year, making them a productive commercial breed.
What to weigh
High fertility means more lambs and more work at lambing. Ewes need good feed to support multiple births.
