Katahdin Hair Sheep

Picture
Katahdins are hair sheep. They do grow a protective coat in the winter, but it is not true wool. They shed in the spring with no shearing required. The breed was developed with a strong emphasis on hardiness which has led to a higher resistance to parasites than most other breeds. They do well on pasture with minimal supplements. The ewes are good mothers and generally produce twins or triplets.

Our Rams

We select rams for low maintenence characteristics. They live on pasture year round with minimal inputs. All of our rams are registered Katahdins genotyped RR for scrapie resistance ensuring that all of their offspring will also be scrapie resistant.
