Russian term or phrase: овец эдильбаевской породы
Тогда он занялся разведением племенных овец эдильбаевской породы, закупив 600 голов. Эти барашки отличаются большим количеством мяса, неприхотливостью в пище, хорошо переносят зимнюю стужу и летнюю засуху.

Can't find anything about these sheep anywhere. All help appreciated.
