Offered for sale as a purebred Katahdin yearling ewe $400, exposed

Really nicely put together white ewe. Positive EBVs across the board, she should be a very standard producing Katahdin ewe. Pedigree brings in Birch Cove Farm (David Coplen, Missouri), Thistle Grove Farm (John Bare, Iowa), and Aspen Mountain Farm (Aileen Scott, Montana).

Photo taken August 2020. EBVs from the 2020 lamb crop PWWT Data. This ewe has been exposed to a ram starting 11/8. Rams are wearing marking harnesses, so I will know her breed date.

Offered for sale as a purebred Katahdin ewelamb $275

Dark chocolate ewelamb.Positive growth, milk and fairly high prolificacy, this girl will tend towards twins and triplets. She is out of my new ram from Missouri, one of the few I’m letting go. Her dam’s side is a blend of local genetics and Aspen Mountain (Aileen Scott, Montana).

Photo taken Aug 2020. EBVs from 2020 lamb crop WWT data. This ewelamb is weaned and ready to go to a new home today.

Offered for sale as a purebred Katahdin ewelamb $300, exposed

Very dark chocolate ewelamb. Positive growth, very good milk and survival, but modest on prolificacy, she’ll likely steer away from triplets most of the time. She is in my top quartile for index, with those high NLW and milk scores. Pedigree blends local genetics with Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, retired), Aspen Mountain (Aileen Scott, Montana), and Birch Cove (David Coplen, Missouri).

Photo taken Aug 2020. EBVs from 2020 lamb crop PWWT data. This ewe has been exposed to a ram starting 11/8. Rams are wearing marking harnesses, so I will know her breed date. Note that for me, ewelambs have about a 50/50 chance of conceiving in their yearling year, so no guarantees; but plan on feeding her well in case she is bred.

Pedigree blends local genetics with Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, retired), Aspen Mountain (Aileen Scott, Montana), and a On The Lamb Farm ram that goes back to White Post (East Coast, now retired).

Chocolate ewelamb with a white star, very nice hair coat.

Offered for sale as a purebred Katahdin ewelamb $300

Chocolate ewelamb with a white sock, tail tip and star. Positive growth, milk and very high survival; modest on NLB, so she’ll likely steer away from triplets. This will be a very predictable, productive ewe. She is in my top quartile for index due to her high NLW and good growth and milk scores. She has a lot of larger-frame ewes in her background and appears to be headed in that direction herself. Line bred on an Aspen Mountain (Aileen Scott, Montana) ewe and tracing back to White Post (East Coast, now retired), Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, retired) and some local stock in there too.

Photo taken Aug 2020. EBVs from 2020 lamb crop PWWT data. This ewelamb is weaned and ready to go to a new home today!

Offered for sale as a purebred record-able Katahdin ewelamb $220

Cute orange pinto ewelamb. She has great genetics and EBVs, but she’s behind on growth in her peer group, so I suspect she’s struggled more than usual with parasite load. She also tore out both her ear tags, so her ears are cosmetically damaged. She is record-able, as her sire has not shed this year in order to upgrade him. Thus I’m discounting her accordingly, she needs to be fed well this fall and should make a good breeder next year.

He is out of my newly-purchased white ram from Birch Cove Farm in Missouri (David Coplen); which is a grass-based, minimal input system with a long history of NSIP data. Note that ram has some Texel in his background, and is an 87.5% recorded ram. He has not shed adequately this year, so I will not be upgrading him (yet). Thus his lambs will also be record-able and eligible for upgrade upon hair coat inspection (which I can do) next summer. This lamb’s coat looks like it should have no problem fully shedding next year. For me, this ram’s productivity scores outweigh the shedding drawback in the pedigree, but I have discounted his lambs accordingly. On the maternal side, this lamb captures some really nice genetics from Thistle Grove Farm (John Bare, DVM, Iowa) which is another grass-based flock that’s long been active in NSIP; and also Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired).

Photo taken Aug 2020. EBVs from 2020 lamb crop PWWT data. This ewelamb will be weaned and ready to go to a new home late August.

Offered for sale as a purebred Katahdin ram $375

Beefy white ram with red spots. Slick-shedding hair coat. Good growth and milk, modest prolificacy, but really strong survival EBV. This will be a good maternal sire for those wanting replacement ewes that are less likely to triplet, while still offering solid growth genetics. Pedigree is a blend of my stock, Thistle Grove Farm (John Bare, DVM, Iowa), Birch Cove (David Coplen, Missouri), Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired), Aspen Mountain (Aileen Scott, Montana). This ram’s dam is older and can’t raise triplets anymore, so I grafted him onto another ewe and he was raised as a single.

Photo taken Aug 2020. EBVs from 2020 lamb crop WWT data. This ram will be weaned and ready to go to a new home late August.
