Ramnad White Sheep Kid

The Ramnad White Sheep Kid is a hardy native breed from the Ramnad region of Tamil Nadu, known for its all-white appearance, disease tolerance, and ability to thrive in arid and semi-arid regions. Bred traditionally by rural communities, this breed is favored for its good meat yield and low input requirements, making it ideal for farmers seeking reliable returns with minimal maintenance.
