We are building a small herd of Hair Sheep. Our ram, TRIPPER, is a pure bred St. Croix. The ewes
are St. Croix, Katahdin cross, and a few Dorper ewes. Each year we sale the weaned lambs.
In 2012, we had are best lamb crop yet. 13 live lambs out of 6 ewes, 6 females and 7 males. The females have already
been sold. The young rams are still for sale. Call Martin for pricing.
August 2015
We have built our herd to 41 ewes. Tripper is still the herd sire though we have two of this year's ram lambs that will
become herd sires too. One is a son of Tripper and another is one we purchased to service Tripper's daughters that we have
kept.
