Keilah's Story

Keilah is a family owned Property Trading as Keilah PTY LTD. Situated in Southern Queensland outside Stanthorpe. Keilah was a wool property but switched to Dorpers 10 years ago with success. Always a little dissatisfied with their growth (from 35 kgs to 45kgs), we trialled the Australian Whites 4 years ago and were amazed at their vigorous growth and hardiness and Keilah has never looked back!

The Australian Whites Story @ Keilah

We decided at Keilah to go all the way with the Australian Whites. We found it difficult to find stud Ewes and were fortunate enough to acquire 40 pure bred stud ewes from the dispersal sale at "Castlereagh" stud (pure Tattykeel sheep). We then purchased 2 sires from Tattykeel and 1 ram lamb from Castlereagh. This then led to our first Embryo program which produced us 50 ewes lambs , which are now lambing at 12 months of age with no problems. These amazing, hardy, fast growing sheep have suited the Keilah property well.

Whites Are Amazing Sheep

Whites truely are amazing sheep. They display attributes that make them a great breed with little going against them.

Australian Whites Lead the Pack

Their meat yield and quality for health benefits cannot be challenged by any other breed. Never has a breed of sheep promoted themselves with more merit. The Keilah Australian Whites provide a hearty meat carcass with 'wagyu' style meat that is full of flavour and impressive taste quality.
