Full British Soay

Ewe Lambs At this point, all of our British ewe lambs have been spoken for. But things can happen. If you are looking for British Soay ewe lambs from the 2010 crop and would like to be on the waiting list in case of last-minute cancellations, please contact us.

Ram Lambs Looking for a new flocksire? We have 2010 ram lambs for sale and they will be available for pickup later this summer after they have been weaned and are a bit more mature.

Adult Rams Since we use our breeding rams for only one season, they are usually for sale once they have done their thing for us. We like to hold on to them until their lambs are on the ground in May, just in case they have thrown any unusual progeny. But then they can go off to new farms and new ewes and new exploits. We have one retired flocksire left. He is Trenear, born in 2006, son of Chestnut and Astoria. He is a sturdy little guy, as is his father. He's been in his share of fights over the years, and has battle scars to prove it. He begat ten lambs here last fall, and according to him, he's not yet ready for the old folks' home. If you fancy a late-model low-mileage ram, proven, still in good shape, at a fair price, Trenear is your guy. [Trenear has been reserved] Otherwise, we also have a nice selection of shiny new rams, no dents or scuffs, on the showroom floor. See previous paragraph.

Prospectus: 2011 Lambs In October, we will put our breeding groups together, using six different rams so we can provide unrelated lambs in starter flocks. If you might be interested in getting British ewes next year, please contact us and talk it over. Because we fill orders in the order we receive deposits, we urge you to reserve your 2011 British ewe lambs sooner rather than later.

North American Soay

All of our North American Soay, both lambs and adults alike, descend from registered stock — either SOA-registered or IDGR-registered or RBST-registered or all three. Our animals' ancestors are known and we are proud of the depth and quality of our North American pedigrees.

Starter Flocks We can still put together one more North American starter flock, consisting of two light phase (tan) ewe lambs and an unrelated yearling ram. The ewes are Chamois and Tawny, half sisters born this spring. The ram is a yearling, Saltmarsh Spicer. Purchased as a group, they will be priced at a discount.

These three sheep are also available individually, as is Chamois' tan twin brother, Chaps. [Chaps has been reserved]

All four of these sheep all have British sires. Grassington (on the right) is the father of the three tan lambs, who are three-quarters British. Follifoot (right below) sired Spicer a year ago. Spicer's mother, Carolina, descends from the East Coast foundation flock of Ridge Shinn, a lineage that is rare on the West coast.

Chamois, Chaps and Tawny will be ready to travel after they have been weaned and are a bit more mature. Spicer can pack his bags on a moment's notice.

Please contact us if you are interested.
