Lean to well marbled meat. They don't dress out as good a percent as other bigger breeds. They aren't dehorned as they are usually very well tempered, some bulls are even half decent. The mama's are very protective of the young though, so don't completely ignore the horns.
Don't know about crosses. They can handle some heat but need shade and water, I've read they do much better in the northern half of the US.
They seem to have very few feet problems and have very little trouble birthing without assistance with little to no losses. Parasites I think they are no better off than any other breed. They do well on pretty poor pastures and will forage through some snow for grasses.
I've been debating getting a few as low maintenance pasture maintainers, the sheep we have prefer to browse leaves and weeds and don't touch grass if they have a choice.
