Welcome to VAZ VALLEY Dorper Stud .
VAZ VALLEY Dorper Stud is a family run business situated in Sheffield nestled in under Mount Roland in an area of rolling hills and gentle valleys.
VAZ VALLEY Dorper Stud was founded in 2006. Our foundation stock are from South African registered studs Roslynmead, Kaya and Australian registered Brocburn Dorper stud.
We intend to expand and develop our stud from the progeny of these bloodlines to one of the leading Dorper Studs in Tasmania.
The primary objective of VAZ VALLEY Dorper Stud is to make available Dorper rams and ewes at affordable prices for stud or commercial users in Australia
