Age of Sheep by Teeth Development Across Breeds

Teeth development in sheep begins at fourteen to eighteen months with the middle incisor pair becoming permanent. At twelve months later the adjacent pair changes, followed by the next pairs at shorter intervals. Some fed animals reach full permanent teeth by thirty-six to thirty-eight months and most have a fall mouth before age four. Permanent teeth start broad but wear thinner with age. wear rate depends on grazing. Western sheep may wear teeth to the gums by six years. Merinos live longer and show younger mouths than long wool or Down breeds under care.
