Today I'd like to introduce you to a wonderful breed of sheep: Cormo. Cormo sheep are a combination of Corriedale and Merino and were originally developed in Australia. Even the name Cormo is a blend of those two breed names. It's a relatively recent breed (1961) and the original breeder actually used computer analysis to help him determine positive production traits. Because these sheep are bred using scientific analysis, the fleece is usually quite consistent in quality.
