OUR HISTORY

ONE STEP AHEAD

In 1964 the "U-Dormer" stud was astablished, by a relative, Mr. M J Swart (oom Thys Kinko), of the farm Kinko and was officially registered on 8 May 1974. In 1999 we bought the entire "U Dormer" stud, 300 ewes and 9 rams and renamed the stud to "Kinko Dormers". We used this good and fertile stock as a foundation to build this stud up to 600 ewes - one of the largest in South Africa.

THE STORY OF KINKO DORMERS

WHY WE ARE ONE STEP AHEAD

Dormers 51 jaar op Kinko, U-Dormers 1964-1998 Kinko Dormers 1999-2015
Oom Thys Swart of Thys Kinko, soos hy bekend gestaan het, was op soek na Vleisramme wat mooi slaglammers by sy Merino ooie kon lewer. Na gesprekke met sy oom Prof. Jannie Swart, besluit hy op die nuut ontwikkelde Dormer ras . (Prof. Jannie Swart was Instrumenteel in die ontwikkeling en teel van dormer skape op Elsenburg en 'n stigterslid van die Dormer ras .)
Aangesien ramme maar skaars was in daardie tyd, begin hy sy eie ramme teel met die aankoop van 10 suiwer dormer ooie in 1963. Vyf was geteel deur P.P. Du Toit genommer 01;02;03;04;05 en vyf ooie was van P.B.B. Hugo genommer 22;23;25;30;45 en 'n ram geteel deur Boy van der Merwe No 38.
