OUR EWES

Sweetgrass Una
(Sweetgrass Siskiwit x Sweetgrass Annick)
JSBA D014-12

Picture
Una is a two-horn black and white Jacob. She is our "puppy dog" sheep--she comes running up for a scratch whenever she sees us. She has a lovely, soft, gently crimped fleece. 

Sweetgrass Treva
(Huntsberger Drummond x Sweetgrass Hermione)
JSBA A010-12

Picture
Treva is our primitive girl. Her sire, Huntsburger Drummond, was one of the "Butter Island" sheep, which came from Scotland and lived wild for several years on an island off of Maine.  Treva has a primitive fleece which is fairly straight  and soft with a long staple and only slight defineable crimp.  We are privileged to have Treva's rare genetics in our flock. She is one of my husband's favorite sheep!

Three Fates Amber
(Hillside Adonis x Sweetgrass Annest)
JSBA D018-11

Picture
Amber came to us as a yearling. She is a two-horn black and white Jacob, but carries the lilac gene. Her fleece has a lot of crimp and a soft handle. Her fleece tends to be more sun-bleached than the other ewes, but has lovely texture and sheen. She has beautifully spaced, striped horns. 

Sweetgrass Banallen
(Rockies' Myrddin x Sweetgrass Ceilidh)
JSBA C099-06

Picture
Banallen, whose nickname is "Heather," came to us as a six-year-old bred ewe. She was actually the first Jacob sheep that I bought, though she didn't come home until months later, after she was bred. It was Heather who "clinched" Jacob Sheep for me; she looked at me from the pasture where she was grazing, and I knew I had to bring her home. She is a big girl with a lovely fleece that won first place in the Michigan Fiber Festival when she was a lamb. 

Round Barn Charlotte

Charlotte was our 2014 "keeper lamb." We love her long, soft, crimpy fleece, her beautiful markings, and her promising hornset. She has her mama's curious personality. We are pleased that she will be staying here with us.

Patchwork Dazzle
(Kreutzer Farms Boyd x Patchwork Sasha)
JSBA D016-13

Picture
Dazzle came home with us along with her half-sister Serena from the 2014 AGM. Dazzle brings us extremely fine, soft, crimpy fleece, striking markings, four strong horns, and outstanding conformation. 

Round Barn Belva
(Kenleigh's Quicksilver x Sweetgrass Treva)
JSBA B050-14

Picture
Belva was our "keeper" lamb from 2013. She carries the primitive genetics of her mother, Sweetgrass Treva, combined with the lovely fleece of her sire, Kenleigh's Quicksilver. She is black and white (lilac carrier), and her fleece is very long, without a lot of crimp, and quite soft. Her markings are much like Treva's. She was my husband's favorite lamb of 2013. Belva fills the role of preserving primitive Jacob genetics, which is one of our breeding goals for our flock.

Hadley Creek Rose
(Blue Ewe Merlin x Hadley Creek Marie)
JSBA B017-14

Picture
Rose is a stunning four-horn lilac ewe who came to us from Hadley Creek Jacobs in Minnesota. Her fleece is long and soft and she has clear blue eyes and beautiful, well-spaced, strong horns, and a wonderful pedigree. 

Sweetgrass Ingrid
(Sweetgrass Siskiwit x Puddleduck Dorothy)

Picture
Jim won Ingrid in the JSBA 2014 AGM raffle. She is positively the friendliest Jacob Sheep we have yet met--and that is saying quite a lot!! We are honored to have another Siskiwit daughter, and to add the Puddleduck genetics to our flock. 

Patchwork Serena 
(Kreutzer Farms Boyd x  Broken O Melodie)
JSBA C043-13

Picture
Serena came home with us from the 2014 AGM. She brings amazing horn and fleece genetics to our flock. We are honored to bring Patchwork bloodlines to our flock.

Sweetgrass Calder
(Painted Rock Pierce x Sweetgrass Sou)

Our daughter Sarah bought Calder at the JSBA AGM. She is considering starting her own flock! Calder is a lovely ewe with marvelous fleece and beautiful, striped horns. 

Round Barn Dixie
(Kenleigh's Quicksilver x Patchwork Serena)
C071-16

Picture
Dixie was our "keeper" lamb for 2015. She has a lovely, wide hornset, soft, crimpy, consistent fleece, and lovely, classic markings. We are looking forward to seeing her babies!
