2008 Lambs

Read daily updates and see photos on my blog.

It appears that all our lambs are now either reserved or "keepers". If you are interested in lambs, please let me know and I can save your contact info in case someone decides not to buy their reserved lambs.

I do have one adult ram available for sale this year. Rammy-lamby is now for sale. He is 5 years old, in good health and proven. He is white, but carries for black and for piebald. He is the sire of Bo, Emmi, Sparky and Panda whose photos can be seen on this site.
