The Lincoln is a sheep from old England that has been significantly altered by selective breeding in the later part of the eighteenth century. Cross-breeding with Leicesters improved the breed's meat production qualities.
The adult has a body weight of about 60 kg, its fleece weighs can weigh up to 7 kg with a diameter of about 40 microns and a staple ranging up to 240 mm.
