Band Corriedale Sheep Now in Nevada
The Adams-McGill Company of Ely owns Nevada’s only Corriedale band, a cross from New Zealand, ranging in White Pine County. Claimed as a superior range sheep for wool and mutton, the breed attains large lamb size though critics say growth potential is exaggerated.
