SHEEP, LAMBS, FLEECE
Krissy (3.5lbs) & Coal's (3 lbs) Fleece available now (30August10, see info below)
Luxurious fleece will be anticipated to be available in late November 2010 in time for the Christmas season. This would be a great gift for the handspinner or fiber artist who is looking for that special fiber for their next project. The dual coated fleece color selection includes cream, pure white with apricot shading and cafe' au lait with silver and black accents. All fleece is heavily skirted at shearing. Our girls are due to lamb approximately September & October. Lamb's fleece (first ever shearing) are exceptionally soft and would be ideal for a baby garment or fine knitting project you might have been considering.
INDIVIDUAL SHEEP
(serious interest in purchase of individual sheep will be considered)
Fall fleece available late November
Toby - 2008 wether, white with apricot shading, produces great fleece. Big boy, even personality, easy keeper. Toby is the sheep everyone needs in their flock because he keeps track of all the lambs, won't let a smaller sheep be picked on by anyone bigger and is one of those sheep who makes all this look easy.
Shy - 2008 wether, off-white
Snobby Twin - 2009 ewe lamb, very soft long staple white fleece with apricot shading, Easy keeper, mother twins each year, would be great addition to anyone's flock.
Coal - 2007 Ram, cafe' au lait, badger faced - Beautiful, soft, multicolor fleece - 3 lbs.
Peanut - 2009 ewe lamb, off-white. Smallest lamb of 2009 breeding season and a spitfire who is just fun to have as part of the flock. Easy keeper, no health problems, mother twins each year
Krissy - breeding ewe, twinned last two years, mother of Shy, Peanut & Buddy. Lambing expected in September, ultrasounds complete, in great health. Big girl with very easy going personality who produces hardy lambs. Krissy sheared early due to anticipated lambing. Beautiful, very soft, clean fleece - 3.5lbs.
Buttercup - breeding ewe, twinned last two years, mother of Toby, Snobby Twin and Caramel. Lambs due in September, white fleece with apricot shading. Amazing mother who lambs easily.
Buddy - 2009 wether, off-white
Caramel - 2009 ewe lamb, white with apricot
SHEARING DAY REQUIRES ALL HANDS ON DECK, EVERYONE IS EXPECTED TO PARTICIPATE
AND LEND A HAND.
