Icelandic Sheep
Our ewes have such names in their pedigrees as Houdini, Golsa, Pruth, Mori, Mocum, and Blaever, as well as many of the original sheep imported. Schnorre- our Newest Guy, a very hansom Black Mouflon/Spotted Hynkill & Askur Great Grandson. We have some beautiful, very colorful babies from him this year. In addition to our 2006 Schnorre babies, we Aled all of our ewe who were over 2 years old to some of the best sires in Iceland. Please see our Breeding Stock For Sale page for the list & pictures of our sheep available.
To compare the differences in the AI babies to the farm bred lambs: The very first thing I noticed about the AI babies was the tremendous muscling and conformation, even as newborns. As they have grown, I noticed how fast the fleece grew & how super soft it is. Most of the AI lambs, at 3 months old, have 5"+ Staple lengths. I have one more straw of Hylur, so both of his babies are available to other breeders. Their dam singled as a yearling, but has twinned the last 2 years. I very pleased with the offspring from our new ram, Schnorre. He has imparted a wide range of coloring and stout conformation to my herd. These lambs will help improve anyone's herd, I have a wide range of lambs to offer other breeders. Many of Schnorre's babies will be staying in the herd. 3 of the AI rams will be used as herd sires this coming year, so I have decided to offer Schnorre to other breeders. He is available for $500.00.
A 50% deposit will hold your lambs until weaning, in Mid June for the AI lambs and Mid July for the farm bred lambs."
