The History of Natural Colored Sheep In the beginning, the choice of breeding animals was limited. From rather meager beginnings the quality of the animals has been continually improved by careful management and selective breeding. Many colored sheep are now competitive with their white counterparts. Almost every breed of sheep is now represented in natural colors ranging from black to gray to silver to brown to beige to red and blonde.
