Basil is the unofficial “mama” of our little herd of ewes. While she doesn’t bleat often, she’s the one the others look up to when they’re spooked. All the little lambs run to her as well when they’re scared. Basil is an AP Harlequin with beautiful dark wool and a tender touch with the herd. 

Every herd of ewes has a sweetheart and Bean is ours. Bean loves to interact with us and get head scratches and attention. Bean is also the basis for Alex’s new children’s book about sheep, an old barn and dreams. The book is rooted in a true story about Bean when, as a lamb, she got a heavy parasite load and became very sick. Bean is an AP ewe and a stellar mom who is tender and caring with her lambs.

If there’s a comedian in our herd, it’s our ewe, Butters. Although small in statue, Butters is the talker of the group, especially when it comes to food. Butters loves to eat and she loves getting treats. If she thinks we're late to feed, she bleats loudly to call us. An FP ewe, Butters throws beautiful little lambs and makes us laugh with her antics.

One of our two rams, Biscuit is a beautiful boy with two bright blue eyes and a broad head. Biscuit has given us beautiful, lush fleece that we plan to have processed this year into roving. While he doesn’t bleat too much, Biscuit loves his daily treats and getting his nose scratched. An FP ram, Biscuit has given us beautiful, playful lambs. 

Our other ram, Kermit, is all boy and loves getting attention. He will stand at the fence as long as you will if giving his ears and nose some scratching. Kermit is also a vocal ram, bleating with excitement if you’re heading to the barn to give him a treat. An AP ram, Kermit is a wonderful example of the Harlequin breed and has given us beautiful lambs.
