Romanov

Sheep

Romanov is a breed of domestic sheep originating from the Upper Volga region in Russia. These sheep are adapted to the cold inland climate and local feeding. Romanovs are one of the Northern European short-tailed sheep breeds. They are pure black when they are born, but as they grow older the color quickly changes to gray. This breed is raised primarily for meat.
