Sires

Herd sires are chosen based on traits we believe will improve the performance, growth and quality of the lambs.  We look for rams that are large framed with good feet and legs, have a strong level top line, and are pleasing to the eye.  He needs to be easy to handle, non-agressive, structurally correct, and a smooth shedding hair coat.
