I sent some of my "gals" for a visit to another Southdown Breeder last fall. (Wink. Wink.) Had a friend stop by her place to see the kids. She snapped this photo, along with others, to let me see my sheep. I really missed them. Sheep really do know their Shepherds - and Shepherdesses.
Now the year is drawing to a close. The holidays are rapidly approaching.
Things are quieting down. Well, a bit.
Herd management is an important part of raising sheep. I work hard and am proud of my herd.
With that said, I am offering some of my Southdown Ewes and lambs for sale. All of them are eligible for registration with the American Southdown Breeders Association.
The one year old Ewes are $250/each. They have not been exposed to a ram, yet.
Bred Southdown ewes are $325/each.
Ewe lambs are $200/each.
The Sassy Ewe is located in Barryton,
Michigan.
