OUR PET WETHERS FOR SALE

These are not left in our breeding program but are castrated, making them excellent pets and companions.

They find their way into all sorts of settings from agritourism venues to therapy animals. Each finds its way into the hearts of those who adopt them. Our 2023 and 2024 lamb crop has never been better and we have a great selection to choose from, each with its own personality and story. We hope you find that special friend here. Pricing is flexible and discounts can be done for multiples or a small flock of very unique “lawn mowers”. Thanks for looking!

OR147-2215 (938) 87.5% (F3) wether

**Born: 3/16/2025**
**Codon: QQ**

This little lady is the result of our 2024 fall ET program using Black Oak Braxton semen, a Highland King Kong son with straight Swiss genetics.

Flower is everything you could want in a Spitti ewe…sweet and gentle as she is Trinket’s granddaughter and that loving temperament shines through. She misses the American Purebred mark by only a few small increments of percentage but her lambs will be registered as American Purebreds. I was surprised to get a Spitti out of her two parents, PV Brigadier General and our SL Elsie! Perhaps a throwback to her original Gotland Foundation genetics?! We are in no hurry to sell this one, she’s a lover.
Asking $15,000.

Our 93.75% (F4) Ewes!

**SL Flopsey** OR147-2267 (989)
93.75% (F4) ewe
Born: 3/14/2025

This gal’s story is one fraught with challenges as she was born small and became our resident bottle baby for the duration of this spring. She has had some difficulties fitting into her peer group now that she is a teenager as she identifies as a little person, not a sheep. She would love to be loved and cuddled. If you think you need a high percentage ewe as a pet, this one fits the bill! See her picture page for more.

Asking $10,000.

Our 90.6% Ewes

**SL Fiona** OR147-2193 (917)
90.6% ewe
Born: 1/23/2025 Codon: QR
This gal has all her leg markings, she just needs a tad more color up her face. She has good conformation and an excellent topline. Nice wide, white horns too. She is one of only a handful of retained upgraded stock that we trace back to Scottish Blackface foundation ewes. I can still see that in her face. Getting the wool off our lambs (due to the heat) sparks a growth spurt so it will be interesting to see this ewe in just a few weeks. See her picture page for more.

Asking $10,000.

Our 87.5% (F3) Ewes

**SL Angel** OR147-1318 (687)

Asking $4000.

SL Cover Girl
OR147-1610
87.5% (F3) ewe
Born: 3/04/2022
Codon: QR
This Teeswater-based ewe has a bit too much color but that didn’t pass onto her first lamb. She produced this smashing F4 ewe lamb last spring and will offer her with her new 2025 ewe lamb as a pair! Beautiful temperament she passes on to her lambs.
Her pedigree features Noblese Davidhof, Remarkable Albert, and Pure Valais Amadeus (Rose Creek Prinz Eugen)

Price for her and her 2025 93.75% EWE lamb are negociable.

SL Desiree
OR147-1866 (499)
87.5% (F3) ewe
Born: 4/12/2023
Codon: QR This young lady has just turned one year old and can be bred this fall. Full black face and wide horns. She has ample color on her legs. A Gotland-based ewe sired by Pure Valais Amadeus. See her shorn by clicking on her photo. She has great conformation under that wool. She has been in a breeding group with our purebred ram, Adonis, since 8/23/2024 and is likely bred.

SL Eloise
OR147-1980 (693)
87.5% (F3) ewe Born: 03/11/2024 Codon: QR

Eloise is a Gotland-based ewe lamb sired by Valais Manor Hans Sebastian. Her pedigree also has Noblesse Davidhof and Remarkable Antipodes (Highland Montana) as Valais sires. I don’t think she will develop full curl horns as her horn growth is slow and at this time she only seems to have skurs. A beautiful animal and well marked. Click for more pictures.
Asking $8000.

SL Flirt

OR147- 2185 (909)
87.5% (F3) ewe Born: 1/20/2025 Codon: QQ

I wish you could reach in and touch this ewe. She is thick. A strong, well build ewe with awesome bone. She is sired by our own PV Adonis so very surprised she lacks perfect leg markings..missing a knee and a hock. Both dam and sire are well marked but this is how it goes with this breed...markings are not hard-wired into the genetic code. Her dam’s pedigree goes back to a Gotland ewe who regularly gave us triplets and quads.
Asking $7500.

SL Flair

OR147- 2210 (933)
87.5% (F3) ewe Born: 1/27/2025 Codon: RR

Another quality F3 ewe lamb coming out of the Shepherds Lane breeding program! And another feather in the cap of PV Brigadier General as he sired this beauty. The dam is SL Candice who has a QR codon…as does the ram…so we got lucky with an RR on this lamb. As she was born so early in the year, she may begin cycling this fall.
Asking $8000.

SL Fantasia

OR147- 2212 (935)
87.5% (F3) ewe Born: 1/27/2025 Codon: RR

This stout ewe lamb is off to a great start in life. Great bone and solid conformation. She was born as a twin to a first time momma, SL Diamond/OR147-1853 and sired by PV Adonis. She is POLLED which is surprising! Perfect for a petting zoo, therapy animal, or a polled breeding program.
Asking $6000.

SL Fancy
OR147- 2214 (937)
87.5% (F3) ewe Born: 1/28/2025 Codon: QR

Her name pretty much says it all. Every year we have a few F3’s that darn near perfection and I hate to part with them but we are here to develop new flocks and need to let them go. This stunning ewe lamb is sired by PV Brigadier General and out of a first time momma, OR147-1857. The dam goes back to SL Renee, our Teeswater-based favorite show ewe who always produced correct, well marked lambs. Start with the best and build on a good foundation! This ewe is weaned and ready to head out to a new home. I can add her to our Maryland transport in April…
Asking $8500.

SL Foxy
OR147- 2226 (949)
87.5% (F3) ewe Born: 2/6/2025 Codon: QQ

This ewe has strong, bold markings! A great, full face with lots of color. She has a bit too much color on her hocks but can be mated with to a ram who can compensate for that. We have several listed that have new genetics. She is sired by PV Brigadier General and out of SL Annette (Highland Montana/Noblesse Davidhof). She is weaned and doing well. I can transport her east in April!
Asking $8000.

**SL Femme Fatale**

87.5% (F3) ewe Born: 2/8/2025 Codon: QR

Femme was born as a single lamb to SL Annabelle (who is for sale this year) and sired by PV Brigadier General. There is a very good chance she is RR but we are waiting for the dna results..fingers crossed! Her leg markings are very good. She won’t be weaned until late May but we will accept a deposit to hold her until then.
Asking $8000.

**OR147-2298 (1020) 87.5% (F3) ewe**
