Our 2008 ram lamb crop is looking good.  There is a great selection of Suffolk rams and also some Dorset rams.   We've added updated photos of most of the rams.  View side, rear and group photos by clicking on the X in the appropriate column. 

Scanning was done on May 23 and you will see that information below.  All loineye scans have been adjusted to 135 lbs.  The ram test rams will be scanned at the end of June.  We will add that information when available.

Scroll to the bottom of the list for information on our Dorset ram lambs.

Note that we've adjusted the pricing on some of the rams after reviewing the scanning data. 

The ones marked "Ram Test" are currently at the Wisconsin Ram Test Station.  These rams will be offered for sale at a private treaty sale to be held at the Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival.  More information for that sale is on the Wisconsin Sheep Breeders Cooperative website.  Click on Sheep and Wool Festival and then on Auctions and Sales - Ram Test Alley.  (If you try to look this up use Internet Explorer.  The links don't seem to work in Firefox.) 

The rams marked NSIP will be consigned to the NSIP sale in Spencer, Iowa.  This sale is scheduled for August 2, 2008.  At the time I'm writing this their website did not yet have information posted for this event. 

Information on the sires is available on the Sires page.  Information on the dams can be found on the Ewe Base page. 

If you have interest in an early selection or if you have any questions please contact us soon.  If you'd like to send us your email address we can send you an email when we post additional information.
