UNREGISTERED KATAHDIN EWE LAMBS FOR SALE This year we have a number of unregistered but purebred ewe lambs for sale. Next year we will be returning to a smaller flock and a predominatly breeding stock oriented enterprize, so if you want some very good lambs for a rediculously cheap price (this year only), we have them at $100 a head. As of this posting (July 14th) we have ten left (from our later born group) that look as if they are going to grow out well. NOTES ON OUR EWES AND EWE LAMBS FOR SALE Our ewe selection for breeding stock production is based primarily on the ewe's recorded prolificacy over her lifetime (and that of her daughters), her maternal ability (bonds well, protective, good milk production), and a history of raising parasite resistant lambs. If a ewe does not consistently produce twins and raise them to market, she will not pay for herself! For a more in-depth description of our selection criteria please click here. We never buy from a sale barn where it is far too easy to bring in disease. We never take our sheep to dog trials, shows, or fairs. Our flock has been closed for five years except for the addition of two new rams for bloodline improvement from a well know and reputable breeder. We have NEVER had foot rot, abortion storms, or any other diagnosed communicable diseases. The two rams that were in with our ewes to produce this year's lamb crop were "Packy" an RR from Mark Dennis - an excellent Katahdin breeder in Louisiana. Mr. Dennis has selected for years for fast growth, and larger size (You can see a picture of this ram on our rams for sale page). We also had"Mic" in there (now sold). This boy was out of our all time most prolific ewe and one who has consistently produced very parasite resistant lambs.
