As the dust settles after a very busy week, I want to thank everyone who bid on and purchased sheep this past weekend at the National Romney Sale. Thanks to the sale staff for once again putting on a fantastic event! Best of luck to everyone this summer with their Thistle Down Romney!

Rounding out our National Romney Sale consignment we have a really powerful long topped, wide made, big b***d January Ram Lamb. Thistle Down 606 is once again out of the Anchorage ram and Thistle Down 913 who has made 2 true stud rams and was reserve at NAILE back in her day. Her first stud ram Black Jack is still here at Thistle Down and the second is a white stud ram currently at Mortons making all sorts of good babies! If you are looking to upgrade your stud barn look no further than this lamb! Show him this year and breed with him next year or just put him in with ewes you won't regret it. The only reason we are selling him is that we are still using Black Jack as a stud ram. I think he has all the parts to elevate any program to the next level! Stop by the pens this week and take a look at him in person!

A little change to the lineup from what was entered but this is our second National Romney Sale entry. Thistle Down 511 QR+ is a February born yearling ewe out of the Anchorage ram and Little Hooves 9103. This ewe might not be what you would expect from a Thistle Down consignment but with shifting trends in the breed we wanted to give people an option. Im going to call her trendy. She is big topped, wide hipped, long bodied, with lots of rib and natural width, with a nice fleece and all the extra chrome you need! She is not small by any means either! I think she has a lot of great assets that would benefit any flock! We look forward to seeing everyone this week in Ohio!

Starting off our National Romney Sale consignment with a dandy! This ewe is right out of the NAILE show flock from last fall. Thistle Down 513 RR is a late February yearling ewe out of the Anchorage ram and Thistle Down 304 who was a NAILE class winner herself. This ewe has all the look and style you need to be a player in any show ring this summer. Add in her center of body and capacity, she will have the power needed in the ring today. The only reason we are letting this great female go is that we have a full sister born this spring. If you are serious about big time Romney females this one is a must-see attraction! Feel free to stop by the pens this week to talk more about Romney!
