All adult sheep in our flock are registered with the Jacob Sheep Breeder's Association (JSBA) and are in the Scrapie Flock Certification Program. Sires of the 2010 lambs are pictured on the
Adult Ram page.
To see detailed pedigrees click here and follow instructions. Create lamb pedigrees with the trial mating feature after you have found the sire or dam in the program.
Lambs can be registered at 3 months of age (ewes) and 6 months (rams).The horns on the ram lambs grow so quickly that it is difficult (if not impossible) to predict what a young lamb's horns will look like when he is of registerable age. That is why I don't make any decisions about which rams will be for sale as breeding rams until they are about 3-4 months old. At that point some culls are obvious, but others may take longer to know for sure.
Sometimes I wether a ram lamb that has an excellent fleece, but for other reasons will not become a breeding ram. These wethers can make wonderful pets and fiber producers. Any wethers for sale will be listed at the end of the ram lamb or adult ram listings.
