The Zwartbles of Quabbs: A Flock Full of Character

At Quabbs, our Zwartbles sheep aren’t just livestock—they’re part of the family. With their black wool, white blazes, and big personalities, they add charm to the hills and heart to the farm. There’s Rose, our wise matriarch; Lagatha, the fierce protector; Porky Pearl, always first to the feed bucket; Kitty, our biscuit-loving buddy; and Harmony, the gentlest soul. These striking Dutch ladies are known for being friendly and fabulous mums—but also a tad greedy! Life with them is noisy, warm, and wonderfully woolly. Come meet the flock and fall in love with the magic of the meadow.
