Offered for sale as a purebred, record-able Katahdin ewelamb $350
Classic white ewe. She is the result of an accidental breeding last August, so any of my sixty-some ram lambs here at that time would have been candidate sires. She is purebred, but only recordable at 50%. Her dam traces back to Birch Cove (David Copen, Missouri) and my own genetics. A super cool factoid: she is homozygous for the myostatin “double muscling” gene that’s been brought into our gene pool from Texel upgrades. I can already see the difference in the beefiness of her back end, compared to her carrier sibling.
Photo taken May 2024 (she is the one on the right, pictured with her twin sib). EBVs from 2024 BWT data. (EBVs are lower than expected because the sire component averaged in has zeroes.)She will be weaned and ready to go to a new home in June.
