Jarlshof Shetland Sheep

We decided to add Shetland Sheep to our farm for their exceptional temperaments and size making them easy to handle. We are going to specilize in fine fleece which is great for garments against the skin. We have both horned and polled rams (ewes are polled) in many colors and patterns. Our shetlands are NASSA registered and also FFSSA if possible. My goal is to have all superfine grade 1 sheep, but I will keep one or two fine grade 2 sheep in the flock sometimes based on other merits. I have a picture of the FFSSA wool grading chart below.
I admire the sheep for their health, parasite resistance, easy maintenance, and basic needs. I have never needed to deworm any of my sheep as of yet. They always have great FAMACHA scores. I also haven't had to assist with any births, and the lambs just ump up shortly after birth ready to follow their mothers. They are great at keeping the grass down and maintaining their body conditions with minimal feed. The lambs grow very quickly just on milk. Shetland Sheep have been my favorite breed.
We do annual micron testing for all yearlings and adults.
Herd tested clear of OPP, CL, and Johnes July 2024 through UBRL.
