Our flock of Katahdin sheep enjoying late summer pasture in preparation for breeding. Many of our Katahdin ewes have EBVs as part of the National Sheep Improvement Program.
We began our Katahdin Sheep herd with non-registered sheep but have added registered Katahdin ewes to our farm. We currently have 18 registered Katahdin ewes. Our Katahdin ewes are registered through Katahdin Hair Sheep International. Our herd of 33 Katahdin ewes are proven mothers and successfully nurse triplets. If you are seeking Katahdin sheep for a pasture based system, then our stock would be a great choice. We sell both registered and non-registered Katahdin ewe and ram lambs.
This registered Katahdin ewe was our first ewe to have an EBVs for the National Sheep Improvement Program. We currently have 10 ewes with EBVs.
We are beginning the process of joining the National Sheep Improvement Program. We have greatly increased our recorded data to help insure the best breeding stock in being retained. We are focusing our breeding on maternal traits, growth rates, and increasing our lamb weaned percentage. We have added ten ewes and one ram with EBV's over the past year to increase the connections of our flock to others flocks across the country. We are excited to enhance our genetics using the EBVs from the NSIP.

Our Current Ram(s)
Yeti, is a registered katahdin ram. He carries EBVs from the National Sheep Improvement Program.
Yeti, was breed by Misty Oaks Farm in Ohio. He was part of the 2014 Southwest AREC Ram Test, where he excelled in parasite resistance and loin eye depth. He carries EBVs from the National Sheep Improvement Program which he shows great parasite resistance, weaning, and post weaning weights. Yeti has great depth through his shoulders and rear end that will be displayed in our 2020 lamb crop. We are excited about the potential of these lambs.
