Four Bred, Natural Color (black/brown) Merino Ewes
Four Bred, Natural Color (black/brown) Merino Ewes
Get on a waiting list for 2025. In mid to late December (makes an awesome Christmas Gift!) four bred, merino ewes with a micron count between 21-24, (bred to our stud) are available for purchase, each year: $4,000.
Lambing date is after April 15 each year (stud goes in with Ewes on November 15 (opening day of deer season). The ewes will have a crayon mark on their rear ends, which proves the stud “visited” when we weren’t watching.
This is an awesome way to jump start your flock. You have a 50% chance of having a ram lamb which you will be able to breed back to three of your four ewes. First year at least four lambs…Its exponential from there.
As long as you follow good management practices and provide mineral salt with selenium during gestation, we guarantee a live lamb. Some of these first time moms may need coaching to care for their baby. That is up to you. We use jugs (mini pens) for three days, after the birth, to encourage bonding.
I’m always available for coaching by phone.
Ewes must leave farm and be settled by January 15. Hauling more than 100 miles can cause stress that may impact fetuses. Ewes will have a “cover” date where insemination by a proven stud was noted, i.e ewe has crayon mark. Ultrasound confirmation can be ordered, buyer pays ultrasound fee. If ewes don’t produce a full-term lamb, you can arrange for a second breeding the next year within six weeks of loss. Please note: we are not responsible for how you manage your flock once it leaves our farm. Mineral salts, good hay, and water are mandatory for healthy lambs. Over feeding with grain can cause many problems including miscarriages (we can discuss).
