Abstract
In the article, as a result of the conducted scientific research, the development dynamics and productivity indicators of local and foreign sheep breeds and crossbred lambs obtained from them in the western region of the Republic of Azerbaijan are given. For this purpose, crossbred lambs with semi-fine wool (crossbred) were obtained by crossing local fat tail coarse and semi-coarse-wool sheep with fine-wool breeders. Since imported sheep breeds are difficult to adapt to local conditions, crossbreeding was carried out by crossing them with local sheep breeders.

 Keywords: breeds of sheep, male lamb, female lamb, hybrid, live mass, fine-wool, coarse-wool.
