This is one of the top ram lambs born here this year. A very substantial, heavyweight ram.  His sire seems to be turning out to be a real nick- a leapfrog in genetics compared to his parents, his lamb crop has been phenomenal for growth.  Sire’s maternal line is from the now-retired Mist River genetics.  Dam is one of my top-performing ewes from Birch Cove farm in Missouri; she is a nice blend of NSIP genetics from the Midwest and South, and she comes with good parasite resistance scores. This ram will make a very productive herd sire that can throw a great combo of fast-growing butcher lambs and really valuable replacement ewes with good milk and prolificacy. It’s hard to “have it all” in one animal, this is one of the few!

Stocky, white freckled ram. Very strong and balanced EBVs across the board, this ram has it all, growth, milk, prolificacy and survival. Pedigree is a diverse blend of Birch Cove, Thistle Grove and Misty River farms genetics, bringing in outside blood to the PNW.

A big, beautiful chocolate baldface ram. This is an NSIP Certified Maternal ram. Really strong growth and milk scores, with good prolificacy; this ram is a good balance that will throw fast-growing, vigorous butcher lambs as well as daughters that can be replacement ewes.

This is a really nice set of triplet ram lambs out of my only badger-colored ewe.  You can see how instinctively tight-knit they are, even at this age. This is how you get NLW in the double-digits, is dams that look after their triplets closely, and lambs that stick to their dams. 18096 is the middle ram in the photo. The sibling at left actually had a little better WWT, but this ram looks more substantial and masculine to me now at 90 days, and they are very close in scores. This pedigree brings in almost all non-PNW genetics, so this ram offers diverse genetics for our region.  He is an NSIP Maternal Certified ram, and is in the top 10% of the nation for growth scores, while still having very strong EBVs across the board, which is hard to get. Let this guy bring improved genetics for growth, prolifacy, survival and milk into your operation!  This is one of my top picks from this year’s lamb crop, this ram promises to be a really strong sire.

This is a very standard white ram that promises to really improve your growth and milk genetics! Those WWT, PWWT and MWWT scores are in the top 1% of the nation. His prolificacy is more moderate, so his daughters are still likely to twin, but steer away from multiple births.

White ram lamb with really strong growth and  milk scores,  solid twinning genetics, and good survival. This guy will make a great all-around sire.

A flashy pinto marked ram with panda face markings. Early shedder and really nice conformation. He has balanced and moderate EBVs, he’ll throw good-growing lambs and will have daughters that tend more towards single-twins than twin-triplets.  He is a nice-sized adult, and calm and easy to handle.
