Our Rams
Luther was purchased from Big Woods Babydolls in Minnisota. He is triple registered with BSRA, NABSSAR & OE He is RR
We were so pleased with Luther that the following year we purchased Mack so we could begin building our off-white flock. Mack is also triple registered and also RR
Last fall (Nov 2023) we were offered the unique opportunity to purchase Argyle from Apple Fox Farms to begin to try for the elusive "spotted" babydolls! We are keeping our fingers crossed!
The Ladies
We have been very selective in purchasing our ewes looking for straight, level, clean fronted girls from the best breeders across the country. Natualy looking for genotype RR. Our first girls were from Jody Fuller in South Dakota and I really loved the black color. Later we realized that they all have off-white in their DNA and couldn't resist those smiling white faces so we begin buying some of each. Now we love getting a set of twins that are one of each color!
2024 Lambs
February 2024 was the first year we had enough numbers to begin selling our babydolls. Before I used to say I was in horde mode as they were very hard to part with and only sold a couple ram lambs and almost no ewe lambs. This year we did sell 5 or 6 ewe lambs and we actually still have a few ram lambs that are still available including one beautiful spot carrier.
Join US
Join us in raising this wonderful breed. Whether it is for their wonderful soft wool, for their amazing quality meat or just for their gentle docile nature to graze in on small acreage. You won't be disappointed. Many vineyards now use them to graze between the vines because of their short stature of less that 24 inches they are excellent as a natural weed control without damaging the vines. They also provide a natural fertilizer!

Sheep Information
- I also serve as a local 4-H leader for a babydoll sheep breeding project and host monthly meetings where we discuss how to feed and care for our sheep. Demostrations are given on how to give vaccinations, how to worm them correctly as well as proper tail docking methods. We also discuss things you can make using their wool! Those meetings are free for anyone who would like to join to learn more about caring for babydolls.
