Our new Riverwood ram. He's an RR! | Our first 10 Dorper ewes and a ram arrived in 2003. From that begining we have grown to 60 ewes. In 2006 we added White Dorpers to the farm. |
| We bred the ewe lambs at 7 months so they will lamb at about a year old. Because of this they receive about 1/2 lb. of grain a day to keep them growing until they lamb. The ewes get 1/2 to 1lb. of grain a day starting about a month before lambing and that continues until pasture is ready in the spring. |
We have 2 new RR rams this year! |

Our farm was among the first
Dorper farms to join NSIP in
2007. Interest in this
program is growing rapidly and
we have several new farms
joining NSIP for 2008.
If you have questions or are interested in joining us in NSIP please get in touch with us or visit the NSIP website by using the link on the left. |
| National Sheep Improvement Program (NSIP) allows us to utilize Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) to identify and select genetically superior animals which enable us to ensure genetic improvement within our flock from year to year. |
![]() Guardian Donkeys | Since an attack on our ewes by neighborhood dogs we now have Great Pyrenees LGDs to protect the sheep. Our dogs came from rescue, if you need a LGD please consider adopting a dog from rescue. The link on the left will get you started. |
| We also use guardian donkeys to protect our sheep. Our first donkeys came from the Wild Horse and Burro Program run by the BLM. Since bringing them home we no longer hear coyotes in the distance. We do have foals available from time to time. Please contact us for more information and pricing. |
