...gorgeous ram for sale

The above four photos are posted here for a fellow shetland sheep breeder who does not use the internet regularly.  If you are interested in this gorgeous ram contact me and I will put you in touch with him. 
This is a 3 Month old  purebred shetland ram *this ram can be registered and would make an excellent ram to be used to improve a shetland flock in both fleece and conformation.  His horns will be good, he has a respectful disposition and a gorgeous grey/emsket fleece.  He will be ready to be used on your flock this fall. He is $250.00

Sheep for Sale

After evaluating our lambs from this year I have more that I want to keep, so I have to let some of the adult ewes go.  I have approximately 10 ewes that I would like to move on and a couple of crossbred ewe lambs to go also.
I have mostly registered shetlands and some shetland cross.  Top picture shows a Moorit based ewe, her fleece color is Musket. Next pic. down shows two  Katmoget ewes, above picture shows a light grey shetland along with some of the crossbred ewes.  The crossbred ewes are 3yrs.old. The crossbred ewes have been sold!!!  The shetlands range in age from 4-5 yrs old.  (2 ewe crossbred lambs approx. 3 months old. These two are sold!)
I did not get pictures of all these ewes, as it is sometimes difficult to get them separated for individual photos.
I have several nice quality shetland rams that have very nice fine fleeces and would be a great addition to a registered shetland flock.  The Shetlands are registered, the shetland ram lambs can be registered.
Pricing on adult ewes is reasonable, what I would consider my prime shetland ram lambs the price is $250.00 as a registered ram. 

I have other ram lambs that are available, that would make nice grass eaters if that is what you are looking for , I would not consider as breeding rams and would 'crimp' them before they left the farm.
These would be available for $1.80 / lb.
