Dorpers by Zhanibek Azhimatov. A place for keeping sheep. Shepherd's house.

PIONERPRODUKT.by continues to publish videos from the AgroExpedition "Agriculture of Kyrgyzstan". In this video, we will see how Zhanibek Azhimatov keeps Dorper sheep.
Zhanibek is the owner of the Classic Hotel in Osh, where we stayed and had a great time! Thank you very much, Zhanibek!
Sheep for Zhanibek is a new line of business. A popular MEAT breed of sheep, the Dorper, was chosen.
At the time of filming, the farm had only 20 heads, but the goal for the coming years is to increase the livestock to 500 heads.
Kochkars were purchased in Belarus, and ewes in the city of Bishkek, from our wonderful friend, the organizer of this AgroExpedition Pardavay Abdiraimov.
Zhanibek notes that all animals have a full package of necessary documents.
Sheep of the Dorper breed have adapted well to the difficult sharply continental climate of Kyrgyzstan, and even in 40-degree heat there was no loss of livestock.
Sheep housing has dimensions of 20x8 meters and is divided into several paddocks. When the number of livestock increases, additional sheepfolds will be built in the mountains, and this room will remain as a maternity ward.
During a drought, when all the grass burns out on grazing, sheep on the farm begin to be fed with wheat, oats, crushed corn.
One of the great advantages of dorpers, along with meat qualities, is that they do not need to be cut, which significantly saves the owner's strength and money.
Summer mountain pastures are located in the Alai valley, which is about 85 km from the farm.
The sheepfold does not have a concrete floor, instead there is a bed of sand half a meter high. The walls and roof are insulated with sandwich panels, which allows you to better maintain the temperature inside, both in cold and hot weather.
