I have a sheep farm in Eastern Ontario. We raise Katahdin sheep which are a hair type and do not need shearing. They are for meat- not fibre. We also have a herd of about 14 llamas. All our animals are raised in as natural a way as possible. We do not use pesticides or artificial fertilizers and feed our own hay. We cannot use the term "organic: as there is no "organically" approved lamb slaughter facility in Eastern Ontario.

BR-549
This is a comedy video from Junior Samples to give you a laugh in the New Year-if you like that kind of thing.
You may wonder what it has to do with Katahdin sheep. Well, we leased a rather famous ram to breed to our ewes last fall. They are due to lamb about the middle of March 2013. The new ram's tag number is BRT-549 and he was the top selling ram lamb at the Regina Agribition show and sale in 2011.
The original owner and breeder of this ram is Randy Thomas from Saskatchewan, who is known for producing top quality Katahdin breeding stock. He has shown his sheep at Agribition for many years.
