Halsey was purchased from Lynn and Ethelma Barnes in the spring of 2009. His first lambs arrived in February, 2010. We appreciate the thickness, correct conformation and excellent breed character this ram has brought to our flock.

This ram is the sire of the Supreme Champion White Ram at the 2010 NYSWF.  He is also the sire of the 2011 Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival Best Fleeced Romney, bred by Pitchfork and owned by Justin Andress of Windy Oaks Farm, Ottsville, PA.

Cyrus was purchased from Larry and Gaylia Bullock in Washington State. His sire, Claymoor 474-00 Imp. is a white ram imported by the Bullocks in 2002 from New Zealand. Cyrus’ fleece is consistent with medium wide crimp and lock and plenty of luster. His conformation is excellent, with the trademark Bullock legs and a long, thick loin. His first lambs were born in February 2007. He continues to sire excellent lambs for us.

We managed to talk the Schwiders out of this yearling ram as the 2010 BSG in Eugene, OR after we fell in love with his fleece. It didn’t hurt that he was named Supreme Ram at the show, either. We are looking forward to adding his genetics to our flock. His first lamb crop will arrive in 2011.

This ram is from Bill Bankhead’s Springfield Farm “domestic” line, and promises to be growthy and correct with good black points and excellent length of loin.  His first crop of lambs were born in 2011.
