Boz Hill 15Z "Jasper" - [CAN]697531
Integrity 15X x Boz Hill 11S North Country Cheviot May 11, 2012 Weight: 230 lbs We have owned Jasper since the spring of 2013, he has been a phenomenal flock sire. He came to us through the Boz Hill breeding program and has turned out to be one of our best sires. We have always had one ram with this breeding program on our farm. Jasper is a big boy, weighing in at almost 250 pounds. He has a fabulous body structure and conformation, which is passes onto his offspring. He is more of a park style ram rather than a hill type. He has a good depth of frame and is square from any direction you look at him. He has good feet and leg structure and throws very vigorous and lively lambs. We are hoping to use him for as long as we can in our breeding program. The summer of 2017, Kjerstin attempted to halter break him, and it sorta got done, at least he doesn't try to kill you now on the halter. ***Pictures do not do this guy justice*** |

Coneygeers Gac 5D - "LAD" - [CAN]722601
Cass 21W x Coneygeers Gabriella 9W North Country Cheviot March 06, 2016 Weight: 220 lbs We have purchased Lad from the Canada All Sheep Classic in Red Deer, AB in 2017. He is bringing in all new bloodlines into our flock and we are very excited to see his offspring. Lad was one of the top rams we thought at the show, he shows a great confirmation and discipline. He has a straight top line with great bone structure throughout his body. With him joining our ram power, we are excited to see the new purebred lambs that will be showing up in the spring of 2018 along with the mule lambs that will be coming. |

Littlesmoky 4506 "Quin"
GBR: 4945/4509 CND: 740520 BLU: 4509 Ram Littlesmoky 7819 Drogon x Bitterroot 708 Tia Bluefaced Leicester April 12, 2013 Weight: 255 lbs Quin is our first Leicester ram, we have owned him since the spring of 2016. He came to us from the Eileen Wosnak Bluefaced Leicester flock dispersal. Quin has grown into a very thick ram since coming to our place. He has the typical Bluefaced Leicester look, the roman nose, long straight legs, erect ears and the a phenomenal fleece and the traditional blue face. He carries a real mild temperament and is a real gentleman in the pen. In April (2017) we had our first on farm lambs from this ram and we're pleased with the out come. These lambs when crossed for the mules, were well muscled and large rate of gain. The purebred lambs were still well put together lambs but grew a bit slower. This summer, 2017, he was halter broke. |

Littlesmoky 4440 "Balin"
GBR: 4845/4791 CND: 740523 BLU: 4791 Ram Somerhill 66635 Xact x Ranfurly 268 05Y Amy Bluefaced Leicester Ram March 22, 2014 Weight: 240 lbs Balin is a new face to our flock. He is one intelligent looking ram. He has a straight back, legs, and thick built. Balin has the large erect ears, the blue skin and also the typical bluefaced Leicester fleece to show. He has gained a fair bit of weight since coming here also, he is our go to ram wen we want to show off the breed. We hope that Balin can produce lambs with a great discipline as he has along with throwing more of the traditional style Leicester we are aiming to have. Balin is more of the laid back ram out in the pen, nothing really gets this guy to excited. He is housed with the ram lambs 2 months after breeding and then all summer and he just watches the lambs and the other rams run around, sometimes getting in on the fun. We are expecting our first lambs from Balin in the spring of 2018 With some work done, this summer, 2017, he was halter broke. |

Lochridge 73E - "Tank" - [CAN]730900
Orchardview 78B x Mcdermit 273Z Texel Ram March 10, 2017 Weight: 175 lbs We are fairly pleased with this little ram. For being a few months old when we purchased him from the All Canada Sheep Classic, he has shown great ability to fit in with the big boys. Tank is now over a year old and we can really see how he is build. Tank is thick, short legs, straight bone structure, plus to top it off he has a great attitude to boot. We had purchased this ram due to the way markets are going. We will also like to get a better meat market lamb with breeding him to the mule ewes This year we will only be giving him a few ewes to see how he does, as when breeding comes, he will still be only nine months old. With that being said, we are pleased to say his last lamb was born May 16, he covered 15 of his 18 ewes. The offspring from him, look exactly like him, and the youngest daughter Brittany, likes to call all of his offspring, little pigs. |
