Our Program of Keeping Hair Sheep
We keep sheep to produce lamb for consumption by our farm customers. All our lamb is sold directly to farm customers desiring clean, nutritious and great tasting lamb. We believe hair sheep are a great choice for our needs. Our Dorpcroix and Katahdin sheep are low maintenance and easy keepers on our program.
The ewe flock is forage based and grazes all year. We provide hay free choice when needed. Sheep mineral is kept available year 'round. We rotate pastures for parasite control and best forage potential. Our ewes lamb out on pasture. Protection from predation is afforded by livestock guardian dogs.
We have a very diverse farm enterprise with conservation of labor being an important factor. Keeping a ewe flock of Katahdin sheep and Katahdin/Dorpcroix crosses has worked best for our needs. If you are considering shepherding, a hair sheep breed may work for you. For more Katahdin info. visit www.khsi.org
