Meet the Flock
We will have lambs and ewes available to new farmsteads in August/September. This year we are focusing on improving our wool and dairy lines. You'll love this primitive breed for their versatility and intelligence.
We are a fully-tested flock and ran tests in June 2024 for Johnnes, OPP and CL.
Sheep Sales: All lambs are able to be registered through ISBONA. A non-refundable 25% deposit will hold your lamb or sheep, with final payment due at pickup in August/September. If we can, we can try to put together a small starter flock for you or work with Midwest shepherds to help create one. If you are out-of-state, an additional fee for CVI papers will be charged on the final sale.
Fiber Sales: Our September shearing provides premium fleece with low/no vegetable matter. We currently have several raw fleeces available as well as yarn.
Contact us if you are interested in adding to your flock or our fall fiber.
RAMS
Alder Creek Stewart B3H 11K USA 4361
Alder Creek Stewart has been paired with Little Sugar River Farm Katniss, Woollyhorn Farm Spola, Long Rifle Farm Nanna and Isafold Icelandics Star. Stewart carries strong wool and dairy lines, and we are excited for badger with spots, gray badger, or badgerflon lambs.
Long Rifle Lothar B5H 12M USA 5051
Long Rifle Lothar is a solid black ram lamb with a dairy build. His silky black fleece is a result of his mom and dad are both from Little Sugar River Farm, whose sheep have solid wool genetics. Lothar was paired with Long Rifle Dika to see if he carries his dad's moorit.
EWES
Woollyhorn Spola
Sweet and friendly, Woollyhorn Spola has the plushest moorit grey fleece. She comes from strong dairy lines and her lambs with Stewart will be winners!
Little Sugar River Katniss B4H 14L USA 4005
Yes, Little Sugar River Farm Katniss's fleece is as dense and full as it looks. She is a grey mouflon with a fantastic thel/tog ratio. Her lambs with Stewart will be a fantastic addition to anyone looking to improve their fiber genetics.
Long Rifle Dika O1H 13L USA4106
Friendly Dika is our forever sheep as she went through a rough start as a lamb triplet. She is black under white fleece, but also carries moorit. Her strong dairy lines helped her successfully raise twins as a one winter ewe last year. She has been paired with Lothar, so we are hoping to see at least one moorit lamb.
Long Rifle Nanna 051H 07L USA 4100
Nanna is the daughter of our first ram Magnus and ewe Nova from our foundation flock. She twinned as a one winter ewe and is black under the white fleece and may carry spotting. Her strong meat and wool genetics make her a nice pairing with Stewart.
Isafold STJÖRNUNÓTT (Star) B2SH 110J USA 2261
Spotty Star is a medium milk ewe with beautiful, fine fleece. We paired her with Stewart to boost the milk genetics and excited to see floofy lambs.
Long Rifle Ama B4H 10M USA 5053
Ama means giant in Icelandic, and she was our largest lamb last year. She inherited her father Lingerfold Feldspar's meaty size and mouflon gene, and her mom Woollyhorn Asa's wool. We held her over this year to keep growing.
Long Rifle Drifa O5H 06M USA 5056
Drifa is our sweetest lamb, just like her mom Dika. She has a wide dairy stance and superfine fleece. She has been held over so she can grow for breeding next year.
Red Brick Road Grazina
Red Brick Road Grazina was a last-minute addition. Her name means beautiful in Lithuanian, and she is a regal beauty and abundant fleece. She also brings some East Coast genetics from her father's side. She has been held over to grow for next year's breeding.
Long Rifle Farm Nomi B2H 07M USA 5052
Long Rifle Nomi is a lamb from some of our favorite sheep, Nova and her dad Feldspar. She is our best fiber lamb with dense thel, and big like her father Feldspar. We love her charcoal grey and black fleece. She has been held over for breeding next fall.
Little Sugar River Ruta B2H 11M USA 4980
Little Sugar River Ruta is the granddaughter of our sheep Poppy and Feldspar who are now with new flocks - so it's nice to have that line back on the farm. She is shorter bodied like her grandmother, but in typical Little Sugar River fashion, she has incredibly dense thel. We love her warm grey coloring as well. She has been held over for breeding next year.
HASN'T CHOSEN PRONOUN YET
Finnagain (unregistered Icelandic cross fiber wether)
Finn is our castrated companion sheep. He gives us bountiful fiber in the spring and fall. He is mostly Icelandic and something else - maybe Coopworth, or something.
