2008 Icelandic Ewe List

Breeding Ewes Now Available !!

New this year: we have reduced our price on polled ewes in order to concentrate on horned genetics. You will find some excellent breeding lines for your polled flock. Some of the ewes are proven mothers, still anxious to raise more lambs. All of our ewes are enrolled in the Voluntary Scrapie Flock Certification Program VSFCP). Our flock was certified on October 10, 2006. However, you do not need to be enrolled in the scrapie program to purchase any of these fine ewes. Our breeding program emphasizes leadersheep genetics, which include seven leadersheep blood lines from Iceland: Ari, Biskup, Blesi, Leifur, Prestur, Skumur and Tigull. Anecdotes about Leadersheep
