Ram Lamb For Sale: FMGL Haymitch

Here's a lovely ram lamb for sale: FMGL Haymitch.
He has a beautifully soft fleece and a nice wide horn set. 
He is halter trained and has a very respectful attitude.
$400.00


The photos below are of Haymitch's sire: INGL Zeke
What a remarkable resemblance!
At the Sountheastern Animal Fiber Fair in Asheville, NC,          Zeke won 2012 Longwool Ram Lamb class and 
went on to win Longwool Ram Champion. 
In 2013 at SAFF, he won the Longwool Yearling Ram class.
Now he has my favorite fleece and a great disposition.




Below are pictures of Haymitch's mother, INGL Yuliana.
She is a 2011 Moorit Mouflon. 
At SAFF in 2012, she won Longwool Aged Ewes.
She has the sweetest disposition, incredible milk
and has had very square, lovely twins both years breeding.

Update on Lambs for Sale

Since it finally stopped raining, I was able to get some nice shots of some of my lambs. More ram lamb photos will be in a separate post. All of my sheep are registered Icelandic Sheep from parasite resistant and heat tolerant breeding. Milkiness is part of my breeding program, too.

These two are twin ewe and ram lambs: Twill on left and Marvel on right. Marvel was the bottle lamb who has now surpassed his sister in size. They are both halter trained and very friendly. They were born the end of April. Their fleeces are SO soft. They are $400.00 each.

These are twin ewe lambs. On the left is Wiress and Clove is on the right. They were born the first week of April. Both are halter trained and quite friendly. The fleeces on both of these girls are long and soft!
They are $500.00 each.

Clove


There are discounts if you buy two or more at a time.
Contact me if you have any questions.

"The Letting Go Has Begun" (Melissa Etheridge)

After a two hour session yesterday of tattooing ears and piercing them with Scrapie tags,

I said goodbye to two of my lovely 2014 ewe lambs, Posy and Trinket.

Posy on left and Trinket on right.
They are on their way to Maggie Valley, NC. It's over 3,000 feet above sea level which means they will enjoy cooler weather than they have here. Their new shepherdess is quite excited and I am grateful that they will have a good home! They will be joining two Icelandic X East Fresian yearling ewes to produce milk and fiber. It's still so hard to see them go.
Each of them had a twin brother and neither brother seemed to notice they were gone. Boys for ya!

Happy Trails!
