We also have various breeds of poultry and wildfowl.

We specialise in Japanese Bantams which we have bred for over 40 years.  

Attention to animal welfare and integrity in our breeding programme is of the utmost importance to us.  It makes care for these sheep a pleasure.  

These are rewarding, ancient breeds.  They are prized for their role in conserving the diversity of British livestock.

Welcome to the Gaerllwyd Flocks of Rare Breed Sheep and Poultry.  

Our flocks live in the hills of South Wales between the Usk and Wye river valleys.  We have three rare breeds ~ Soay sheep and Boreray sheep which originate from St Kilda, Scotland, and also Balwen sheep which are from Mid-Wales.  

All our sheep are frequently handled and have Registered Pedigrees.

Advice gladly given on all aspects of keeping these fascinating rare breeds of sheep ~ and visitors are welcome by appointment.  

We usually have livestock for sale.
