Sheep typically grow to a height of about 18 to 30 inches at the shoulder, depending on the breed. For example, smaller breeds like the Cheviot may be on the lower end of that range, while larger breeds like the Suffolk can reach the upper end. Adult rams are generally taller and more robust than ewes. Overall, their height can vary significantly based on genetics and environmental factors.
