What is a Pet or Fiber Sheep, You Ask?

                 These are unregistered ewes and wethers (neutered males) who come complete with abundant, beautiful fleeces. They make colorful additions to spinning flocks, are excellent brush control squads and lawn mowers that can also can end up being a really fun, low-key project that kids and families will enjoy together. Although they are not quite what we look for in our registered breeding stock, they are guaranteed to steal your heart and provide you with soft and colorful fleeces, suitable for countless fiber projects for many years to come.

Lawn Mowers on Hooves

                 Icelandic sheep are good friends to have when it comes to mowing the grass or clearing land… They are excellent at stripping plants and young trees of their leaves and especially seem to love those prickly, troublesome wild raspberries and also enjoy stinging nettles and burdock. They’ll go through and greedily eat down brush and leaves, creating improved visibility and mobility for you to complete your clearing. Have a beautiful stone wall that is buried under thick growth, an overwhelming stand of stinging nettle that needs to be dealt with, or a hillside that is too steep to mow? Send in your wooly friends! While they’re at it they’ll help by naturally fertilizing your soil.

Moorit Gray wether.

Moosey’s mom has one of the nicest fleeces in the flock. His color will lighten as he matures, to a light brown with a white or pale gray undercoat. Moorit grays make some of the prettiest adults, in my opinion. Pictured at left are locks of his uncle’s fleece as a 3 year old. His uncle is the same color/ pattern as Moose.

Special: Buy all 3 (Bindi and both of her lambs, Moose and Karma) for $500.

Bindi

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A smart and friendly ewe with one of the nicest fleeces in my flock. The overall conformation of my flock is surpassing her own, so it’s time to put her into retirement or into the freezer. She is a sweetie, and mother to both Moose and Karma.
