Hi!

No sheep for sale at the moment. Expecting lambs in early May, weaned lambs will be available and for sale in August.


Purebred (but not registered) Saint Croix Sheep.

These are mostly grass fed sheep but they do get some feed each morning for lactation and growth. Ages of ewes are guessed by teeth. All sheep are sold with their hooves trimmed recently. These sheep are rotationally grazed and given salt licks, and minerals, (little to no copper depending on their age and pregnancy status). They are also given a daily amount of D.E. (Diatomaceous Earth) for a natural dewormer, we haven’t had any problems with worms since we started using D.E. in their feed. Our Saint Croix Sheep are great foragers, they’ll eat poison ivy and other weeds, and are not picky like most goats. These sheep are pure white, but they like to go underneath the truck and rub themselves on the pipes and get themselves dirty...

Located in Sevierville, TN. Sheep are used to barbed, woven, and a strand of electric fencing (all in different pastures). If needed, before being leaving the farm, we can retain ewes with our Purebred Saint Croix Ram so they are bred back before they leave the farm. Once they leave the farm, we would prefer them not to come back to breed to our ram, so we can maintain a closed flock. Note, our ram is not available for hire with ewes from other flocks.

Sheep Sold:

SOLD - St Croix Ram Lamb - Orange Collar -
Flint was born on June 24, 2023 to one of the best ewes in our flock. Flint is a twin, and him and his twin where a whopping 13lbs at birth (average is 6-7 lbs) and very healthy. He is friendly and will come to you and eat from your hand, he follows a feed bucket extremely well, and will follow me in the pasture, he loves neck scratches and belly rubs. Great top line and form. Will make an excellent sire for a starter flock. He is currently intact, and weaned. Dam has a great udder, and lambed to big twins with no help. Though he does have a few dirty patches on him, he is all white and no spots.


SOLD - Saint Croix Ewe -
Acorn is a 3 year old who lambed on July 1, 2023 to a ram lamb. She lambed easily, and without help, and she did not reject her lamb. Acorn’s lamb was recently weaned and sold. She is a skinny ewe because last year, we didn't realize she was bred, and she didn't get the care that bred ewes should have. She is getting extra feed to put her weight back up. Acorn is friendly and will eat from your hand, follow you, and let you pet her.


SOLD - Saint Croix Ram Lamb -
Casper was lambed on July 1, 2023, to Acorn (above). His birth weight was 10lbs. He is friendly, and will come to you, eat from your hand, and loves to get petted. He is weaned. Casper has a good form, and will make a great ram for your flock.

SOLD - St Croix Ewe -
Borina lambed on July 19, 2023 to a ewe lamb. It was her first time lambing, and it went perfectly with no help from us. Her tail is not docked. She is 1-2 years old. She will eat from my hand, come when called, and follows a feed bucket well. Her ewe lamb is being weaned, and is being retained by us for a future breeding ewe. Borina is wary of strangers, but warms up to them once she's eaten feed from their hand.

No calls due to bad reception in our area. I check emails fairly often, but LSN emails are often sent to junk mail, if I don’t respond within a day or two, please feel free to send another email which should send to my inbox.

Thanks!
