| The Ewe Flock: Our ewes are a diverse and colorful flock. We are focusing on ewes that raise large, fast growing lambs that they can deliver unassisted, while still being able to grow a great fleece by October. We also look for good conformation and healthy, hardy and large animals. All but one of our ewe flock is horned (except for a few ewes that have horned genetics in their pedigrees) and we are continuing to concentrate on producing strongly horned animals. We have ewes of leadersheep bloodlines from Iceland, as we have seen how hardy and milky, as well as intelligent, the leadersheep are. Our flock represents what we believe are some of the best North American and Icelandic bloodlines, including: Serkur, Hunn, Heli, Mjaldur, Moli, Flekkur, Noi, Biskup, Prestur, Ari, Haengur, Kani, Kari, Flotti, Laekur, Rektor, Morro, Molur, Bambi, Skumur, Abel, Horvi, Sjodur, Peli, Kunningi, Lodi, Leifur, Austri, Dreitill, Vinur, Eldar,, Hylur, Sponn, Gaddur, Mango, Tyr and Aboti. To view the pedigree of an individual ewe, click on her highlighted identification number or name. For more information on the AI rams that contribute their genetics to our flock, please visit this page. The ewe flock pages are mostly organized to show family relationships.We do take pre-reservations for spring lambs out of specific ewes and will do custom breedings.

| "Patsy Montana" Daughter of Iceland ram Ari Solid black polled quad (carries moorit and spotting) Lambing record: 2, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 1 This elegant and beautiful ewe is the ewe who has been with us the longest now and she is a real treasure. Her lambs have been vigorous and healthy and her daughters have all gone on to lamb as one winter ewes, many of them twinning their first season. Her granddaughter Gwendolyn is one of our best producers. |

| SRX313J "Jamie" White scurred twin (carries solid) Daughter of Iceland ram Horvi Lambing record: 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1 Jamie joined our flock spring of 2008 from Tongue River Farm. She has an exceptionally long and wide body, much like our beloved Blanche. Jamie is shown above at the age of 9 years, while close to lambing a 9 1/2 lb. ewe lamb.There is much to be said for these old gals who continue to thrive and produce lambs year after year. They are the ones I want to have securely in my flock, so any ewe lambs Jamie has will stay here. She was bred to SRX59N a moorit grey horned son of Kani. Update: Jamie had a 9 1/2 lb. ewe lamb on May 21st. |
