Offered for sale  two Katahdin grower rams as a set $440

Set of two early-weaned twin rams from a triplet set. Positive EBVs across the board. Sire pulls in genetics from the USDA Research Station in Booneville, AR and some KRK. Dam is mostly local genetic with a little bit of Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired) and Thistle Grove Farm (John Bare, DVM, Iowa). This is a cute, healthy set of lambs born to a great mama. For some reason, she became very thin in late pregnancy, perhaps due to an apparent tooth abscess. So she hasn’t had much milk and is basically dried up now that they are 6+ weeks old. I proactively trained them to feed from a creep pen, so they are growing nicely on their own with good nutrition. They will need to be fed high protein creep and ideally some alfalfa until they are at least 90-120 days old (through early August), and ideally learning to graze grass alongside some adult sheep during that period. (You can make them a  small feed pen with “bars” on the sides that are narrow and short, so only they can access the creep feed.)

EBVs from 2025 lamb crop BWT data. Photo taken May 2025.  The ewe sibling is sold, and the rams as listed as unregistered, but intact growers. I could sell with registrations for an additional fee. These lambs are ready to go to a new home today, with the feeding conditions above. Price good through 7/31.

Offered for sale as a register-able Katahdin yearling ewe $325

Framey orange spotted ewe. Solid EBVs across the board  tho more modest on prolifacy. Pedigree is a mix of my genetics, KRK, Thistle Grove Farm (John Bare, DVM, Iowa), and Birch Cove (David Coplen, MO). She had a stillborn lamb this year that may have been caused by dystocia in the middle of the night (unwitnessed), so I don’t fault her for this.

Her productivity record starting as a yearling: 1/1, 2/2, 1/1, 2/2, 2/2. She is a B-coat (incomplete shedder that tends to keep a backline of wool, but sheds enough to quality for full registration).

Offered for sale as a registered Katahdin ewe $745 w/ 2 grower ram lambs at side

Classic white ewe. Positive EBVs across the board. Pedigree is a mix of my genetics tracing back to KRK, Misty River (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired), Aspen Mountain (Aileen Scott, MT). Her productivity record starting as a yearling: 1/1, 2/0, 2/2, 2/2, 2/2.

EBVs from 2025 lamb crop BWT data. Photo taken May 2025. She has twin white ram lambs at side (pictured), and can go at this price as growers (intact but not registered) as a set before 7/31. After which her lambs will be weaned and she can be sold standalone.

Offered for sale as a registered Katahdin ewe $825 w/ 2 ewelambs at side

Classic white ewe. Positive EBVs across the board. Sire traces back to KRK genetics as well as Birch Cove (David Coplen, MO). Dam is from Misty River (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired). You don’t see PAS 28L in pedigrees much anymore, he’s from the early days of Katahdins in WA state, so this is a pedigree with animals with longevity. Her productivity record starting as a yearling: 1/1, 2/2, 2/1, 2/2, 3/3, 2/1, 2/2. She is eight years old but in great shape; Katahdin ewes can lamb well into their teens if they are in a well managed system.

EBVs from 2025 lamb crop BWT data. Photo taken May 2025. She has twin white ewelambs at side, and can go at this price as a set before 7/31 (they are recordable and purebred, but I’m not certain of their sire). After which her lambs will be weaned and she can be sold standalone.

Offered for sale as a registered Katahdin ewe (pet/cull price) $275

Pretty fleabitten red spotted ewe with a clean shedding coat. Moderate positive EBVs. She’s had subclinical mastitis in the past and can really only raise one lamb, but tends to have multiples, so I’m selling her at pet price. Genetics trace back to Aspen Mt Farm (Aileen Scott, MT), Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired) and Birch Cove (David Coplen, MO) and a lot of my own/ local genetics. She could be bred again and is a great mother (and tends to adopt lambs that are not hers), but be prepared to bottle feed. She has out of season breeding genetics, bred on 4th of July in 2024 to lamb in late November. Lambing record starting as a 2-year-old: 2/2, 2/1, 2/2, 3/2.
