Sponsorsheep June 2017

Tomorrow, Monday June 12th at 6pm central time we will be dropping the final six sponsorsheep of this season.  Here is a small profile below of the sheep available. If you want to read all the details of the program you can read about it here

Brown Shetland Ewe Lamb

This beautiful girl was born on June 9, 2017 to one of our original shetland mama's Nora. She is one of two, her twin is a ram lamb.  She is already so full of energy, following her mama around the pasture and playing with her brother, her fleece is a lovely brown shade - referred to as the Moorit colour in shetland fleece colours.

White Faced Shetland Ewe Lamb

This stunning girl was born on June 9, 2017 to one of our original shetland mamas Cairo. She is one of two, her twin is a ram lamb.  Her markings are so much like her mama, as is her behaviour. She is timid, and doesn't like to stray to far from her family, but she loves fresh blades of grass, and is always seeking out fresh pasture. I suspect her fleece colouring will be similar to that of her mothers, a fawn colourway.

Merino Ram Lamb

This little guy was born on May 26th and he is a fun loving ram, who is growing like crazy. He is a cotswald/merino cross sheep and will be our breeding ram next year.

Brown Merino Wether Lamb

This boy was born on May 26th and he is a shy little wether, but he loves jumping and playing with his brother. We decided to castrate him, so he will only provide beautiful fleece for us next year. His chocolate brown fleece is soft and beautiful, he is a cotswald/merino cross.

Black/White Shetland Ewe Lamb

This beautiful girl was the last lamb to be born on the farm, she was born on June 11, 2017 to one of our original shetland mamas Shirley. She is one of two, her twin is a ewe lamb. She is very friendly and already loves to play around with her sister. Her white markings will most likely fade with time, and it will be interesting to see what her fleece will become.

Black Shetland Ewe Lamb

This little girl was born on June 11, 2017 to one of our original shetland mamas Shirley. She is one of two, her twin is a ewe lamb.  Her fleece is very dark black, silky soft and long!  It will change over the year, but I have a feeling it will be very beautiful.
