Offered for sale as a pet Katahdin ewe with two ewelambs at side $875 w/ twin lambs at side
Red baldface ewe with white hind socks. Strong growth and prolificacy EBVs but more modest on survival and milk. Pedigree has Birch Cove (David Coplen, Missouri), Thistle Grove Farm (John Bare, DVM, Iowa), Misty Oaks Farm (Kathy Bielek, OH) and some local genetics. This mama is super gentle and maternal. She’s very prolific, has had quadruplets twice. But she needs a lot of care in late pregnancy, as she’s one of those ewes that gets such a huge udder it nearly drags on the ground and her lambs need help learning to use it until they can drain it down. She has also been prolapse-ey in late pregnancy when she has these huge sets. If she can be in a barn with careful oversight, she raises really good lambs; otherwise she’d make a lovely gentle pet. I’m pricing her on the pet/ cull end because of this overhead cost. Lambing record starting as a 2-year old: 2/2, 1/1, 4/2, 2/1, 4/2.
Photo taken May 2023. EBVs from 2023 lamb crop WWT data. She is NSIP genotyped. She can go with two ewelambs at side, one fawn colored one that looks like her and one white one. I orphan-reared two of her other ewelambs from her 2024 quad set. Price for the set good through 6/30. Lambs will be weaned and the can go separately in August.
