Icelandic Sheep: 2009 Sales List

Here it is at last, our 2009 sales list!

Some sheep are already reserved, and a few people are on our waiting list to get first choice on some of the sheep. Other than that, sales will be first come, first served, so make your choices early.


ADULT RAMS


Tutankhamen FRELSI AI RAM M5H 540T: Horned moorit solid twin ram. Born 2007. 62.5% AI bloodlines (Flotti, Bambi, Morro). Carries spotting. Tut is only on the sales list because we like him so much that we've kept quite a few of his daughters. Now we need to make room for some new bloodlines. He has a mild, quiet nature, a good build, and a rich, crimpy fleece. He's has been a very dependable sire for us, always producing lovely lambs, no matter what he was bred to.

Sire has excellent meat build and soft, rich fleece. Dam has a nice build, thick fleece, and superb heat/parasite resistance. This is one of the best lambs of the year as far as overall quality. He has a terrific build, and a VERY abundant, soft fleece. AND he's a triplet. I'm keeping his brother and sister for my own flock. His price has been reduced because I gave his mother oxytetracycline (an antibiotic) while she was pregnant, and it caused a birth defect: William's ears are 1/2 the normal size. He can hear just fine, though. The defect is cosmetic only. It was caused by his in-utero environment, not by genetics, so it should have no effect at all on his lambs.
