Breeding Program
We use a four sire rotational breeding program to minimize the inbreeding coefficient in our flock. The sire lines are labeled blue, green, red, and yellow; lambs are tagged according to the color group of their sire. Ewes are mated to the next color sire line in the rotation.
​
We are striving for maternal, prolific ewes who produce well structured and heavily muscled lambs. Due to the rigorous selection process, not all color lines have the same number of ewes every year. We are working hard to improve specific traits within each color group and have been focusing our selection process on achieving these goals.

Data below is for the current flock sires. See photos on Sires Page.
