Welcome to our website for the Association for Coloured Down Sheep
If you, like us, just want to enjoy all types of Coloured Down sheep – be it commercially or as pets, be they large or small, black or white (and anything in between) – then why not consider joining us? We all know how very special Coloured Down sheep are – particularly their characters – so we feel it’s our duty to ensure that they continue to flourish.
Our aim is to offer a friendly, all-inclusive, low-cost Association with more of a convivial ‘club’ feel… Our small band of breeders have volunteered to take on the running of the Association and, by using technology to reduce the need and costs associated with paper, printing, postage etc, we hope that breeding pedigree Coloured Down sheep can become cost-effective for all.

We have two breeding sales each year in July/August – one in Sussex and one in Wales – and a popular Facebook page where people are asking questions and making useful contacts, and where many breeders are finding customers for buying and selling their sheep.
We hold group meetings, farm walks and information days – and would love to see you out and about, showing with us…
