For the purpose of genetic characterization of strains of sheep in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a morphometric characterization of Kupreška Pramenka has been performed. A total of 62 heads were measured, 56 ewes and 6 rams. The average height of the withers of ewes was 69.71 cm, the height of the hook was 70.57 cm, the body length was 72.57 cm, the chest width behind the shoulders was 21.12 cm, chest depth 31.98 cm, width of the hips was 20.28 cm, the chest volume was 90.95 cm and the circumference volume was 7.91 cm. The rams had an average height of 75.33 cm at the withers, the hook height of 76.33 cm, the body length 78.83 cm, the chest width behind the shoulders was 24.33 cm, chest depth 34.50 cm, width of the hips was 22.00 cm, chest volume was 98.50 cm and the circumference volume was 9.33 cm. In sheep and rams measures that have been shown the highest correlation and statistically highly significant difference were those related to the process of growth and development of the animal, and these are: the height of the withers and hook (r = 0.841 for ewes and r = 1.00 for rams), while the other hand, there are measures that do not show correlative relationship as hook height and chest volume (r = 0.155 for ewes and r = 0.533 for rams).
