SECTION II
ORIGINS
1. The Coopworth breed had its origins in the 1950's and 1960's in the crossing of the Romney
ewe with the Border Leicester ram to produce the F1 Border-Romney and the subsequent
inter-breeding of them to give F2 and F3 generation progeny, which were then eligible to be
known and registered as Coopworths.
Since the 1970's the base of the Coopworth breed has been widened to include sheep bred
from white faced breeds other than the Romney, by continued topcrossing with Coopworth
rams.
DEFINITION OF A COOPWORTH 2. The present recommended breeding programme to produce a Coopworth, is one (1)
topcrossing by a Coopworth Single Entered (S.E.) ram over any other white faced wool
breed or wool breed cross ewe. Alternatively registered or screened Coopworth ewes may
be mated to any other white faced white wooled ram to produce F1 female stock that then
must be mated to a Single Entry Coopworth sire to produce eligible foundation stock under
sub section 3 following.

ELIGIBILITY FOR REGISTRATION 3. (a) The foundation stock may be either registered (pedigree) or commercial.
The Regulations require that the sheep presented for registration shall have come
from foundation stock with a good breeding history and have already been subjected
to a high degree of selection based on recorded measurements. The breeder shall
currently be recording on a Society approved performance recording scheme and
applying Ewe and Sire Summary and selection List data to a progressive breeding
policy.
(b) Sheep presented for inspection and registration must be within DEFINITION (2).
They must also have been recorded on a Society approved scheme for a minimum
of one lambing, or be the progeny of parents recorded on the scheme, i.e.
accompanied by a Two Tooth Selection List. Minimum acceptable performance
requirement will be that a ewe has reared a reasonable set of twins or have positive
Index for maiden ewes on a Two Tooth Selection List.
(c) The degree of eligibility may vary according to the known breeding history of the
foundation stock and the degree of selectivity applied. Sheep submitted for
inspection for registration shall represent the top 20% of their age group based on a
recorded performance of fertility, growth rate, fleece weight and be physically sound,
growing quality wool and be acceptable representatives of the breed.
(d) Stock into which the Booroola "B" gene has been introduced, are not acceptable for
registration.
(e) All flocks must hold current Brucella Ovis accreditation
(f) Council may from time to time progressively raise the standards required for the
registration of new flocks originating from Definition 2.
3:1 COMPOSITE BREED FLOCKS
The Society will recognise, inspect and separately accept under the title of Composite Breed
Flocks, sheep falling outside Definition of a Coopworth, Section II.
Flocks applying for entry to the Composite Breed Flocks section must have applied
Coopworth Society regulations specifically 4 to 11 following, for a minimum period of 3 years
To retain registration as a composite breed flock, subsequent generations must be
maintained:
(a) Subject to Coopworth Society performance and selection requirements.
(b) Be White faced - white woolled.
DEREGISTRATION OF EWES
4. In order to improve early conception, lambing percentage, lamb growth rate and wool weight
and quality, the following sheep shall be deregistered, their ear tags removed and positive
identification applied.
(a) Any ewe (other than a hogget) which is barren.
(b) Any ewe which on more than one occasion fails to lamb in the first 38 days.
(c) Any ewe which does not lamb naturally, has a faulty udder, or has bearing trouble.
(d) Any ewe which prematurely develops poor wool or loses constitution, or develops
foot faults or defects.
(e) Any two tooth ewe which does not rank in the top 75% of latest selection list based
on NLW.
(f) Any four tooth ewe which does not rank in the top 40% of the latest selection list
based on NLW
Inclusive of the above, the culling at the hogget stage and after the two tooth lambing shall
be such that 40% of that age group must be culled between weaning as ewe lambs and
mating as four tooths.
INSPECTION AND REGISTRATION
5. Every sheep in a registered flock or in a flock submitted for registration must be individually
identifiable by ear tag as to serial number and year of birth and flock prefix, and these must
correspond to the breeder's records.
Breeders seeking initial registration shall apply direct to the Secretary for an application form
on which the breeder will give details of the history of the flock and the rams used.
Subsequent inspections maybe arranged by applying to the Secretary or District
Co-ordinator. The flock and the records will then be inspected by an Inspector appointed by
the Council, who shall report to the Council on the form provided. At inspection the sheep
shall have at least three months wool growth. The cost of the inspection shall be borne by
the breeder. All sheep not passed at inspection shall be positively identified by the owner
as having been rejected. All objections by the breeder to decisions of the Inspector must be
made known to him and an appeal made to the Council within 14 days of inspection. The
Inspector may inspect all rams, ewes and hoggets.
Inspection of rams for Transfer, Sale or use under Certificate of Service requires production
records to meet eligibility standards for SE Rams (regulation 8). No physical inspection is
required.
Single Entry Rams used for A.I or export require both physical and record inspection.
A list of the sheep passed shall be prepared and submitted to the Council, and if the Council
agrees, the flock duly registered. Once a flock has been registered there will be no further
inspections of that or any future generations unless otherwise directed by the Council. Any
breeder who offers unregistered sheep for registration, will have those sheep and two further
offerings inspected. Thereafter Council may give approval for sheep to be added without
inspection. Any such additions must fulfil the conditions laid down in Regulation (3).
The minimum size of flock eligible for initial registration shall be 50 ewes if derived from an
unregistered flock. Purchasers of ewes from a Registered flock will not be allocated a Flock
Number until a minimum of 50 ewes are transferred.
To retain registration it shall be mandatory that every registered flock be on a Society
approved performance recording scheme and base its selection on the records.
Inspectors may adjudicate on acceptability of sheep for registration or reinstatement, but
must report to Council the action taken.
Notwithstanding these Regulations the Council may register (reinstate) sheep upon written
application from a breeder, it if considers exceptional conditions exist. For this purpose the
Council may suspend, alter or amend any provisions of the Regulations in respect to that
particular application.
No sheep from a Registered flock may be entered into competitive showing, but they may
be demonstrated in natural condition if accompanied by display cards giving full productive
history.
No fertility enhancing drugs are to be used in registered Coopworth flocks with the exception
of embryo transfer programmes.
That all breeders eye muscle scan and record on SIL a minimum of 20% of ram lambs
weaned.
FLOCK PREFIX
6. Flock owners are required to submit to the Council for approval and registration, a prefix for
their flock. The Registered prefix shall be reserved for the use of the flock owner and shall
be used for all sheep born in his flock. The purchaser of a registered flock shall have no
right to the previous owner's prefix or flock number without his written consent and the
approval of the Council.
DEREGISTRATION OF FLOCK
7. The Council reserves the right to inspect any flock and the records kept, and a whole flock
can be deregistered if in the opinion of the Council, on the advice of any three inspectors,
the standard of the flock, recording, or any acts prejudicial to the breed, make the flock
unacceptable to the Council, or if the rules and regulations of the Society are not being
carried out both in spirit or in letter.
Every year a number of flocks will be balloted by Council and subjected to an inspection of
records and/or sheep. The owner of flocks not meeting Society requirements, may receive
assistance and guidance from Council. If Society requirements are not met the flock may
be deregistered at any time.
ELIGIBILITY FOR SINGLE ENTRY RAMS 8. All rams and ram lambs mated in Registered Flocks must be Single Entered.
To qualify for Single Entry a Ram must:
(a) Be at least F2 and be born in a registered flock.
(b) Be in the top 15% of Index (based on NLW) as shown on the most recent Selection

The flock was founded in 1958 and remained a closed flock until 1984. The genetic base of the flock was
widened with the introduction of industry rams in 1984 and 1985. In 1986 all ewes were allocated to one
of four selection lines: Control, Production Index, Lean Tissue Growth Rate, Clean Fleece Weight. Intense
selection within each line commenced in 1988 and is proposed to continue for 15 years. To enable the
policy to proceed the Lincoln flock has been classified as a RESEARCH FLOCK.

Flock founded in 1969 with emphasis on wool weight and fertility. Flock dispersed into commercial ewes
in 1987. Screening of two tooths began again in 1993, sheep selected were above average for growth and
wool weight, they also included some progeny from the disbanded Premier Group. They have been mated
to S.E rams and since 1995 NZOSR sires have also been used. Breeding policy is to continue emphasis on
high wool weights, lean growth and to produce a high fertility sound hill country flock.

mated to Lincoln and Hinenui sires, formed the basis of the recorded flock registered in 1970. A
foundation participant in NZOSR, genetics introduced since 1985 have been reference proven, with the
flock selection philosophy firmly directed at the 5 major SIL goal traits plus commercial suitability, assisted
by muscle scanning and wool sample testing. The flock has also been extensively screened for FE tolerance
by GGT blood-test and within-flock bred sires are currently testing at Raqmguard 0.55 (2006).
