We have too many sheep and would like to right-size our flock.
We are selling: 7 ewe lambs and 2 intact ram lambs born this Spring/Summer as well as 4 yearlings & older ewes (ranging from 2-4 years old).
We have two families of Shetlands in our flock, with one being smaller/daintier and the other a bit larger, but all are on the small-end for sheep.
We have had great success lambing: the flock lives with their ram and this year gave birth mainly in April (but the stragglers ranged from mid-March until mid-July). With 15 ewes, we had 17 lambs. The ewes all cared for and eventually weaned their babies on their own.
Shetlands are great grazers - they obviously prefer grass, but will eat knapweed, milkweed, thistle and even our Christmas tree.
Our ewes are not registered, but our ram is. He has a great soft fleece, nice personality and is the father of all the lambs we are selling.
The sheep live with livestock guardian dogs and electric fencing.
