Ram recap: We keep two rams for breeding and keep a separate boys flock and mamas lambs, and Llama flock.

VVF Donovan is our Black Gulmoget ram. He has fine fleece, true solid black with Gulmoget markings. His fleece has developed a frosted sweep on his hind quarter which results in roving and yarn that is true black to very dark charcoal. When mated with Grey, Moorit brown, or Black ewe he has consistently thrown Dark Brown, Black, and Gulmoget (Badger face) markings. He’s a kind sweet ram that tends to step in to protect smaller sheep from being bullied.

VVF Tex is our finest fleece boy, with tight crimps in medium dark Moorit (brown) that gets sun bleached tips which makes a root beer colored roving and yarn. He also has a sweet disposition but is more of a basher than Donovan. He makes flashy lambs because he can throw several types of markings but only brown (moorit) coloring.

Better pics of the 2026 Shetland lambs that are available for sale. Boys can be sold as rams or banded to become wethers. Fiber pet or fiber flock. No black ewes for sale this year. I’m rebuilding my dark colored breeding stock. All lambs are currently unregistered (unnamed, untagged) but can be registered (NASSA papers) after sale for an additional fee.

Gordy, Clyde, and Jake headed to their new home in Santa Rosa, where they’ll join a small herd of goats grazing the ranch. Their fleece will be blended with the farmer’s alpaca fiber to make beautiful yarn.

Shetlands are the Jack Russell terriers of the sheep world – astute, quirky, stubborn, full of heart. That’s exactly why I breed them. Breeding fine-fleece Shetlands as fiber pets and starter flocks never gets old.

Love these handsome fellas.

Lamb update: they are almost weaned. Lambs are eating hay, grass, and still getting milk. It’s a rich diet and they are looking cute and chonky.

I’m gonna leave this chubby cheer here for the start of Mother’s Day Weekend. 💗

Fresh crew of 2026 lambs. Lambing season has wrapped, and these little ones are already grazing, easing off their moms, and finding their footing in the flock.
And yes—very serious training underway in the essential art of King (and Queen) of the Hill.

Last two little ewe labs got yard access today and are back in there snug pen with their mom - 48 hrs old.

I’ll post more photos of the latest lambs next. mom is not tolerating visitors or paparazzi.

And like that, we are DONE lambing!!! Finally, 2 Shetland ewes from Namora. Final count 7 boys, 4 girls. Are reserved confirmed but all pretty much spoken for. LMK if you’d like to be on back up (waitlist)

Next breeding season is Oct 2026 and lambs born mid March to mid April and available about 2 month after birth (weaned and eating forage)

Another baby boy - ram lamb born yesterday to Grace x Clyde. Mom and babe are doing fine. They’re both the quiet and cautious type. I’m guessing the baby’s fleece will fade to a root beer float combo brown points and softer brown on the body. (See the faded part on the side body - that will fade) Beautiful soft fleece on both mom and babe.

All the boys except Rambo are available as rams or wethers (neutered). The boys will get banded after they’ve weaned off their moms.

24 hours on the farm. 🐑

Saturday morning, Jolie welcomed a sweet little ewe lamb into the world. I tucked them into a cozy corner pen - dry, sheltered, away from the flock - to rest and bond in peace.

Then came the gale. The heavy wind and rain.

I woke up this morning to find the roof above them had peeled clean off in the storm. The sheep were soaked. Everything was soaked.

Everything except that baby.

Somehow, through the wildest night we’ve had in a while, Jolie kept her lamb dry. She’s such a good mama.

They’re both safe and warm in a new pen now. What a first 24 hours, little one.
