I need to get down to 20

I am thinking about selling Minwawe Silver Bell. My magic number is 20 for my flock and I am still a little over. So if she is something that interests you, let me know and I can give you some more information. I am retaining her mioget ewe lamb.

Summer Sales Update

Sold: 2 registered ewes, 4 registered rams, one wether, 6 unregistered and cross bred ewes.

For Sale: one wether and one ram lamb.

Next year: There will be at least 2 adult registered ewes for sale, possibly a yearling ram or two, and our entire lamb crop minus 2 or 3. I will only keep as many lambs as adults that will be offered for sale. So if you think you see something that peaked your interest this year, please keep us in mind for next year.

Currently For Sale:

Cheviot/Shetland wether $125

One registered Shetland ram lamb, could be wethered for a pet or handspinner's flock, price is negotiable as I really just want a good home for him. Ram - is being temporarily retained for further evaluation as a ram.  Is available without papers for $150.   Special pricing if you take both boys still available. I'd like them to go to homes, not freezers so that is why they are priced as they are. If you can provide a good home then make me an offer, all reasonable offers considered.(SOLD)

Mapleton Confetti - FOR SALE

Confetti is still available. $350 SOLD!

Another Ram Lamb for Sale

This is Mapleton S'More (Mapleton Cooper x Minwawe Marshemello). He is offered for sale for $350. He is almost a big white spot with yuglet markings. Genetically he is grey, but I am thinking he may also be katmoget - so patterned and spotted! I believe he carries moorit as both his parents have thrown brown based sheep, and his dad was a fawn katmoget. I love this guy, but I am keeping his twin sister. For a Cooper replacement I am keeping Olympia's boy, his half brother, but his ram lamb is just as solid and correct and may even have better fleece. His fleece is very uniform. I love his tail:
His horns look very promising:

S'More is sold!

Availability Status - REVISED

Minwawe Cha Cha has been taken off the sales list until I find out the status of breeding Serendippity in the fall. The only reason I was going to let her go was because I had Serendipppity...but not I will have to wait and see. They are by the same ram, and out of twin sisters. Her ewe lamb is sold and is outstanding! Duet is not spoken for as well so I might just hold on to Cha Cha for one more breeding season.
Spooky's twins still for sale. Gaining well with extrodinary build. Priced to go as pets, crossbreeding flock, 4 -H project, or for handspinners. If they end up as feeder lambs, they will go in our own freezer. Ram will be banded this weekend for sure if there is no interest in him as a ram. Ewe lamb sold - ram lamb now a wether.
Other updates: sales pending on Duet and Bahama. Wouldn't know two people wanted Duet in the same day. Once a deposit has been made I will reserve those sheep for those buyers. Only one Moorit and white ram lamb still available. The grey, kat, yuglet, flecket is now available for $400 (SOLD , going with Duet and Bahama).

Updated Spring Sales List

Two moorit and white, yuglet, flecket ram lambs for sale. Sired by Minwawe Bahama, Minwawe Sprinkles' lamb on left single, and Minwawe Serendippity's twin lamb on right. I will get more pictures to post of them soon and by request I can email you more. Price $350 each. One SOLD, the other being RETAINED

Minwawe Bahama and Minwawe Duet had this handsome moorit and white ram lamb. He has socks on three feet, a perfect tail, and the biggest build of all the ram lambs. All three have very uniform fleece all the way to their tails. (Under evaluation)
Cheviot/Shetland cross bred ram lamb, will be wethered soon if there is no interest in him as a ram. Gaining extremely well, solid well built lamb. He is offered for sale for $125.
Cheviot/Shetland cross bred ewe lamb, twin to ram above. Also well built and gaining well. Inquistive personality. Very crimpy soft fleece. Great for a cross bred flock or handspinner's flock. She is offered for sale for $125 (SOLD) alone or $225 with her twin.
Minwawe Bahama (Minwawe Two Spot X Minwawe Tropical) - yearling moorit and white HST. Proven, great horns, good manners, gentle breeder, wonderful fleece. I plan to use him extensively early fall. He is available for pick up end of November. His price is $375.
Minwawe Cha Cha for sale for $250 or $500 with her yearling daughter below. Both have wonderful moorit fleece, tiny tails, and carry lots of flash. Duet is halter trained. Cha Cha is a Minwawe Pan X Minwawe Dancer daughter.
Minwawe Duet is for sale individually for $ 300. She is a Minwawe Hopalong daughter that I added to my flock last summer from MO with the rest of my Minwawe sheep. I have two HST ewe lambs I want to keep from this year's lamb crop, so she is offered for sale. If she doesn't sell I will breed her again this fall. She is really well built and has wonderful fleece. She is very shy, but easy to handle once haltered. Duet will be joining S'More in PA!

I will offer a $25 discount on any ram when purchased with ewe. I will also offer any ewe as a bred ewe in fall for an additional $50, bred to the ram in my flock of your choice. Fleece samples of adult and parents of lambs available by request.
