| On this page we are proud and
excited to show you our bred ewes! These ewes have been
exposed to the indicated rams. Our goal is to produce the
best Icelandics available anywhere, and we've taken great care in
selecting what we feel are excellent examples of the breed.
All of these girls are outstanding, adults having proven their
worth through prior production of quality lambs, and lambs having
proven themselves through production of top notch fleeces and good
growth patterns. All were chosen for superior conformation,
excellent fleece, multiple birth records (or their mother’s, in
the case of ewe lambs), ease of lambing, milkiness, and ability to
pass these qualities to their offspring. Both ram and
ewe lambs will embody the best of the above attributes, too
(carrying on the tradition). Only ten ewes are for sale as
exposed to the ram chosen. The rest we won't part with at
this time, but we'd be glad to reserve a lamb for you from those,
or you may purchase them after lambing (please note this in the
price column). We reserve the right to keep first choice of
their lambs, but second or third lambs may be reserved for $100,
which we will apply toward your purchase price when the lamb is
born. In this way, you can plan for what you would like to
have, and you can be sure it will be yours! If a lamb isn't
born that fits your reservation, we will refund your reservation
fee or you can apply it to another available lamb. This fee
is nonrefundable once the lambs are on the ground and there is one
that matches your needs. With a purchase of three or four
ewe lambs, we give a discount of 10%. Purchase of
five or more ewe lambs earns a discount of 20%. You may also
purchase a ram lamb for half price with either package.
We ask for a deposit of 30% on any lamb or group of lambs
purchased. Below is a special list of our lamb prices.
These prices reflect a discount for you—after the birth
of the lambs, prices will be reflective of the actual colors,
patterns and fleece quality of those lambs. Your opportunity here is to choose ahead of time lambs you
want from the breedings of your choice, guided by our projections
as to color, pattern, etc. |

Chicory
| Chicory, HWF167N, polled black ram
with who impressed us from the time he was born. He is a
glorious nonfading black with fleece that is just beautiful, long,
thick and soft, with a lovely handle. He is wide through out
and solid, square and strong like his father, Mehemet (SRX175M)
His fleece is so thick, it's hard to see his skin when parting it,
and the fibers are unusually lustrous. His mother, Flora, is
a lovely snow white ewe whose fleece is beautiful, soft and
lustrous. She is from one of our old favorites, Sylvia, who
is also dam of one of our other flock sires, Fennel, (listed
below) Chicory traces back twice to Faldur
on his sire's side and to Askur
on his mother's side. Both parents have super temperaments,
as does he. He's just what we were looking for!
Gorgeous Blue black, completely polled, great fleece lines, he
wins a place as a flock sire! These ewes were with

Hawkweed
| HWF163N, Hawkweed, a horned moorit ram, is undeniably one of
the best moorit sires we’ve seen, with his dark unfading fleece
that shines with copper highlights in the sun. He is a
majestic ram that captures your eye with excitement as you walk in
the field. His maternal grandmother Duet (BLW95G
2,2,2,2,1,2) has the same regal bearing that draws your
eye. He is wide and strong, with fleece that makes you want
to touch its profuse softness. His father is Ghiradelli, our
super, horned moorit ram from last year, and his mother is
Alyssum(HWF01M, twins as a ewe lamb) Both parents’ fleeces
won at Maryland Sheep and Wool last year. Ghiradelli’s mother is
Stumpy, (BLW74G, 1,3,2,2,2 200%). So Hawkweed has size,
fleece quality, and prolificacy on both sides of his pedigree.
Watchful, but easy to handle. He traces back to AI sires Sveppur
on his sire’s side and Hunn
on his mother’s side. Wow! |

Moonwink
| A polled white AI sired ram who had
fleece an inch an half long when he was born! Moonwink is
named as he is because his thel-rich fleece has the soft lustrous
whiteness of a full moon, with absolutely astounding quality.
It is soft and luxurious with an unbelievable thickness and length
-he almost glows as he stands watching us. He is very large
and impressive, with super width throughout, yet he is a gentle
guy. This is an incredible ram, and we can't wait to see his
offspring! His sire is Glaer,
an AI ram whose quality is unquestioned, and his dam is Annie, a
beautiful, big,moorit grey ewe with super fleece herself, who has
a history of producing moorit and grey from his mother.
Moonwink was penned with the following ewes: |

Fennel
| HWF159N, Fennel, a horned black
badgerface ram with beautiful rich color and fleece so long and
profuse it hangs over his face when he’s grazing. Fennel
is an exceptionally fine ram, one who drew the eye from the time
he was very young. His fleece was a rich , warm caramel at
birth, and it has held the warm tones as he has matured. It
is very nicely balanced and so long that the thel is almost 6
inches, with that buttery softness that is so delightful to feel.
His sire Mehemet (SRX 175M), has given us two of our flock
sires this year, a tribute to his ability to pass on his quality.
Fennel traces back twice to Faldur
on his sire’s side, while his mother, Sylvia (STS55F,
1,2,1,2,3,3,2,200%) has been a consistent and prolific
producer of quality sheep. Comes from good
temperament, should produce it too. We can’t wait to see
what Fennel produces! Fennel’s ewes: |
