Breed of sheep From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adal is a domesticated breed of fat-tailed sheep from Ethiopia. They are bred mostly for their meat.[1]
The Adal is unicolored from white to dark brown. Average mature weight for a ram is 35 kg (77 lb) and a ewe 24 kg (53 lb). They have short ears, often appearing to have none. At birth, males are on average 2.54 kg (5.6 lb) and ewes 2.26 kg (5.0 lb).[2]
This sheep breed is especially adapted to arid, dry climates. Rams and ewes are polled (hornless). The Adal is classified as a fat-tailed hair breed and has short, stiff fibers.[3]
