Offered for sale as a pet Katahdin ewe $275

Pretty white ewe. She’s had some prolapse issues this year, and tho often they don’t recur, sometimes they do, so I’m selling her as a commercial/ unregistered pet. She could be bred again if the owner was quick to catch and treat prolapse. Otherwise she’ll make a nice pasture pet.

Photo taken July 2023 when she was a lamb (she’s a yearling now). Her twin ram lambs can be weaned any time and she can go to a new home today.

Pretty red buckskin ewe with a mottled white face. She has a good pedigree and EBVs, but wasn’t quite going to make the cut for me to keep her. Sadly she had a hard birth of twin lambs that I had to pull, and it was hard on her. She may breed fine in the future, but I always discount these and market them as pets in case the dystocia were to continue.

Photo taken April 2024. EBVs from 2024 lamb crop WWT data.  She is ready to go to a new home today.

Offered for sale as a commercial Katahdin ewelamb $250

Cute chonky ewe, white with brown and black spots, born in January. She was the result of an accidental breeding last August, so I don’t know who her sire is. She’s had some familial prolapsing in her pedigree, enough that I think there is risk that it may repeat with her, so am selling her as a commercial/ pet. She can certainly be bred and will probably be a good dam, and prolapse is only lowly heritable, so it may never crop up for her. But if it does, then it would be recommended to send her and her daughters into the meat channel. Otherwise she could make a lovely pet and pasture ornament, or companion for horses. She could also be grown out as a slaughter animal, and depending on how fed, could be ready for butcher in October or so.
