2014 Breeding Season

Our new ram did us well with some prime examples of Katahdin rams and ewe lambs.  The kids showed several at the Midwest Preview Show in Sedalia and the 4H show at the Callaway Youth Expo.

In all, we had 30 lambs from 15 ewes.  One set of triplets and a single averaged us out to two per.

This young gent on the right has many of the traits we look for in a decent ram.  Good confirmation, growth and muscling are evident. Now that the fairs are done for us, he is available for sale.

We also have several nice ewes to choose from. Ewe lambs will be ready to introduce to the ram in late fall or spring.  We do not intend to keep any back ourselves since we have grown to a size that fits our pasture.  We even have a few older ewes to sell in order to reduce some grazing pressure.
More rams and ewes are available that are not pictured.  Give us a shout and come and see the stock.
