Dagliç

Dagliç sheep are a native Turkish breed associated mainly with western Anatolia. They are generally described as short fat-tailed sheep, commonly white with dark markings on the head or legs, and they have been used for meat, milk, and carpet-type wool in steppe and semi-dry farming regions.

The breed's practical strength is its ability to work in a traditional grazing system where feed quality and weather can shift sharply through the year. Flocks are usually managed for hardy ewes, serviceable lambs, and enough milk for household or local use rather than for highly specialized dairy or fine-wool production. Their short fat tails also separate them from thin-tailed dairy or fine-wool sheep in nearby regions, which affects both handling and market expectations.
