Beautiful girl whose breed has a rich history. On July 3rd 2023, Bonita surprised us with a massive ram lamb -- the apparent product of a one-night stand when our Leicester Longwool ram broke out b...
Beautiful dark ewe with a curious but meek personality. Once sheared, she is a gorgeous blue-black!...
Hope was born a little early and with an adventurous spirit. She loved chasing chickens and constantly tried to crawl through our fence to our neighbors’. She is an amazing mother and grandmother!...
Bashful, but vocal! At the moment, she is easily the most talkative of any of our sheep. She loves to speak her mind!...
Miracle refused to stand and nurse when she was born. After a couple hours, we were preparing a bottle for her, but she was fading fast. We decided to go in and pray over her. The first thing she did ...
Poppy is a sweet ewe with an uncanny resemblance to her grandmother Rose. She is more shy, but a very attentive mother and a talkative personality....
Hazel has been a wonderful mother to her first lamb Hosanna!...
Oh, this boy. This is the second surprise we got from George after his February escape. Maverick is a massive, active boy!...
Hosanna is a single polled ewe lamb out of Chief and Hazel. She is full sister to twins SHF Sierra and SHF Shilah. She was born grey-and-tan, but she seems to have turned... silver? Hosey is an es...
Beautiful polled twin badgerface ewe out of Chief and Hazel! Full sister to SHF Hosanna and her twin SHF Shilah. Navajo-Churros were first brought to the New World by Spanish conquistadors, making ...
Biscuit is the nephew of Mousse. He is a beautiful misty silver gray with a heavy fleece and expressive eyes. He is gentle and bashful. I could not even convince him to lift his head for a photo ...
Apollo has a beautiful stormy violet shade of lilac fleece and amazing horns. He is the one ram we have ever trusted so completely that I would nap in a lawn chair in his pen. He is shy and gentle and...
As the only 2018 lamb, Ben is the star of the show and he likes it! He popcorns when you speak to him and loves head rubs. He even responds sometimes when you call his name – “Benjamin Lane!” He has e...
Nana was one of the first two ewes we ever purchased in September 2005. She was pregnant with Gabe, who was born February 8th 2006. He had gorgeous markings and a larger than life personality. Nana he...

Rose is the tomboy of the ewes, even giving light headbutts. Gorgeous in horn, color, and markings, Rose has produced some lovely offspring – and they usually look a lot like her! She is an awesome, a...
A sweet apricot color. Unfortunately, we lost Eloise to an untreatable intestinal cancer....
When I first researched Icelandics, the words “independent” and “aloof” frequently popped up to describe the breed… and then we bought Mousse. Mousse calls to us every chance he gets, climb...
Oh, Lord, where do we start with Zane? Enormous personality. Charm out the wazoo. Constant comic relief. Silly. Drinks out of the hose like his dad. Bouncy and has the bad habit of eating our apple t...
Dan Roe was another non-breeder purchased for his massive, exceptionally fine fleece. What he lacks in testicle (he has only one), he makes up for in sweetness and a massive twelve pounds in wool...
