It's hard to describe the feelings related to disbanding our Southdown Flock. As of today all brood ewes and ewe lambs are sold. Our ewes and lambs have gone to great people in three states. We've reconnected with people we haven't seen in years and met new families excited to get in to the breed.

Ann Bechman Fry we're going to keep you busy for a little while with registrations and transfers.

I want to share our learnings from this process in case they are helpful to others.

1. There are a lot of really great new/young people and families in the breed.
2. Buyers are looking for good, affordable Southdowns.
3. All of our sales happened through Facebook, with no commission.

We're keeping a handful of sheep that we didn't feel made the cut for buyers traveling a long way to get here. So you may see sheep and lamb pictures here, and that's why.

We'll be posting here soon pictures of equipment for sale.

Making it official, that we are retiring from the Southdown biz! We have some big changes coming in our family that are driving this decision. We have 15 brood ewes and 7 fancy ewe lambs for sale that will be advertised here soon. All will be very reasonably priced, in excellent health and condition and quality will be high. Stay tuned!
