JUST WEANED AND AVAILABLE IN 2009, TWO PAIRS, PAIRING GLADHOUR BABYDOLL LAMBS AND A
NEIGHBOR'S BABYDOLL LAMBS:
BLACK RAM LAMB AND WHITE EWE LAMB
WHITE RAM LAMB AND BLACK EWE LAMB
In 2003 I bought my first Babydoll Southdown Sheep. In 2005, my first lambs arrived.
My lambs of 2009 should begin to arrive in April. At time of sale, a buyer may request
a brochure from NABSSAR with care tips, and will get a list of the lamb’s life events
so far and his "papers." Babydolls make nice pets, wonderful 4-H projects, and great
fuel-efficient lawnmowers. Their wool is desirable for blending by handspinners, and
their carcasses-if a person could eat one-are supposed to be excellent. Have you ever
seen anything cuter?!!!
Babydoll Southdowns have adorable "smiley" faces with personalities to match. They
are calm rather than flighty and stay within their fences well. Reportedly they can
be used in orchards to keep the grasses down between trees because they do not
girdle the trees as some breeds do. The ewes are excellent mothers. The "babydoll"
size is the original Southdown size and the Southdown breed itself is listed with
the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy
("recovering"). My original male and female sheep are double-registered with the
North American Babydoll Southdown Sheep Association and Registry (NABSSAR) and Olde
English Babydoll Southdown Registry.
Contact me for information about lambs for sale
or to make a reservation.
