Once lambs are all on the ground we will contact our waiting list and any potential buyers.

All lambs (except wethers) come with NABBSAR registration.
All lambs are vaccinated for CDT and dewormed as neccesary before leaving the farm.
Weaning takes place approx. 60 days from birth (June or July).
Shipping is at the buyer's expense.
All sales are final. No refunds or replacements given unless special circumstances have been discussed in advance. Sheep are considered to be healthy/sound at time of sale.
Useful Information
When getting your lamb. Transition to your feed of choice slowly over the next 5 days.
Lambs have not been on pasture for parasitic control. Lambs can easily be overrun with parasites when put on grass. Introduce lambs to grass slowly over the next 5 days. Every year when putting sheep out on grass the rumen needs to build up enzymes to digest lush grass.
Check body condition and FAMICHA score periodically for parasite assessment, especially if lambs will be on pasture right away.
Lambs are dewormed after weaning.
Your lamb has an ear tag with an assigned number that stays in the ear. When you transfer your lamb(s) you will need a head shot of your lamb confirming the number. Contact NABSSAR if a tag falls out.
Hooves need trimmed at least 2 times per year. Keep housing areas from staying wet over a long period of time. Move them to a dry area when allowed to prevent foot rot.
Ewe lambs tend to not squat that well when urinating and are not develop until they are sexually mature. This can sometimes result in urine soaked wool on the back end. We have this happen to a few lambs about every year. If you see this happening try and rinse out the urine soaked wool and towel dry. Apply powdered insecticide liberally and work throughout the wet wool area. (y-Tex Python Dust, Livestock Insecticide)
Wethers can get fat easily. Generally they only need grass or grass hay. Grain and alfalfa hay can increase the chance of urine calculi.
Adult ewes unless breeding need grass or grass hay. During breeding and lambing season they need grain as a supplement to their hay diet.
Always make sure your lamb(s) have fresh water. Preferably in multiple locations.
Have loose minerals or mineral block available. Make sure mineral is labeled for sheep.
If your sheep will be housed with goats or horses KEEP FOOD SEPERATE. Sheep cannot have the amount of copper in goat and horse products.
