Offered for sale as a register-able Katahdin ewelamb ewe $300

Cute white ewelamb. Solid EBVs across the board. Sire is an outcross of Birch Cove (David Coplen, MO, now retired) and Lynn Fahrmeier (MO). Dam traces back to a North Carolina State University ram and also a ram borrowed from the USDA Research Station in Booneville, AR. This is almost a completely out-of-state pedigree to bring in some fresh genetics!

Offered for sale as a record-able Katahdin ewelamb $275

Cute white ewelamb. Her mama was twelve and raised nice twins this year (but then she died peacefully of congestive heart failure in the summer, bless her!) I had a sire mishap last winter where one of my planned sires was infertile, and at the tail end of the cleanup ram time window, some butcher lambs escaped into the field on my farm sitter when I was out of town. This is a daughter of that rendezvous, and a DNA search was not able to identify her sire, so she is 50% recordable. This messes up her EBVs since they are all averaged with zeroes for the sire. But I believe she will be a good producing ewe with hopefully as long of a productive life as her hardy dam! Her dam was a nice outcross between old White Post Farm genetics (East Coast, now retired), On The Lamb Farm (Sara Jo Gahm, Arlington) and Aspen Mountain (Aileen Scott, Montana).

Offered for sale as a register-able Katahdin ewelamb $300

Pretty ewe with rust colored markings and a brockle face. Positive EBVs across the board and strong on maternal. Sire pulls in genetics from the USDA Research Station in Booneville, AR (and there’s a little bit of line breeding on him on the dam’s side). Dam’s sire came all the way from New York, Gibraltar Farm (Etienne and Isabel Richards) a very large and strong NSIP flock.

Offered for sale as a register-able Katahdin ewelamb $300

Cute white ewelamb. Dam is from Birch Cove (David Copen, Missouri, now retired) and Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired). The sire is special: I was able to trade some proven rams for two top-performing ram lambs off the range at the USDA Sheep Research Station in Dubois, ID. Their sire is KRK. These guys’ dams came from the US Meat Animal Research Station (US MARC) research flock in Lincoln, NE. These sheep have been raised in an extensive, low-input system that’s a true test of hardiness and wiliness (they live in wolf country and are ranged on thousands of acres in large bands with guardian dogs). So I’m excited to see what these genetics do in our system in the PNW. The EBVs are moderate because there is currently a snafu getting those rams connected back to NSIP (but I’m hoping this will get resolved in Sept). This is a unique opportunity to capture some pretty diverse genetics and some of the magic gold dust from MARC, the home of the “Easycare” composite hair sheep.

Offered for sale as a record-able Katahdin ram lamb $450

Fancy chocolate pinto panda ram. I’m not 100% certain of his sire and did not DNA test him, but his twin sibling tested to this sire, so the below pedigree is a higher confidence presumption. I’ll sell him as record-able at 50%, since the parentage isn’t 100% for sure. (Presumed) sire traces back to USDA ram from the Booneville, AR research station that we borrowed in the PNW For a while. Dam is mostly my own genetics but tracing back to  Birch Cove (David Coplen, MO).

EBVs from 2025 lamb crop WWT data. Photo taken July 2025. He will be weaned early August and ready to get to work breeding this fall.
