Great Pyrenees Puppies Available- We MAY (mother nature permitting)  have a litter of purebred pyr puppies should be arriving end of June, ready to go end of August 2009. Visit link above to reserve. They go very very fast.
 
One adult breeding ram available- 2 years old. Proven producer. Last year and this year all ewes were covered, we even had one set of triplets last year (our first ever) We have one two year old adult breeding ram available. $300.  NOTE: in the ten years we have been raising our dolls, we NEVER have had a butting or mean ram. This year we put our male fainting goat in with the sheep. In turn, this ram is a butting ram and can be mean. (?) He was not a bottle baby, our only idea was the goat? They did butt each other. He is a remarkable, beautiful specimin of the babydoll breed and would produce very wooly stocky lambs. We advise using him only at a farm that has no children, or use a face mask?  We normally would not even consider selling a ram that is not kid safe, however he is such a beautiful ram and would be a real asset to any breeding program even if using him for one year only. We will not keep him long-we would like to sell him by July 1st 2009. Email for further information, or fill out reservation form and mail to us noting a pick up date on form. Pictures are located on this site named: Another White Knight.

We live on a small hobby farm in southern Michigan with our two children, sheep, mulefoot pigs and pyrenees dogs and various other farm animals. Our farm is not extremely elaborate but we find it fits our needs perfectly, and are very proud. We currently have approx. 25 ewes and two rams, 2 white 2 black.

 
We have raised the Olde English Babydoll Sheep breed for many years. We strive to maintain the "true type" southdown preserving the smaller size and muscle mass.

Our fleece won Reserve Grand Champion at the Michigan Fiber Festival in August 2002, Reserve Grand Champion, 1st, 2nd, 3rd at the 2003 Michigan Fiber Festival! Consistent quality a southdown trait!

We have purchased Sunshine Farms, located in Middlebury Indiana, (from one of the three original founders of the Olde English Babydoll Sheep Association)  entire herd of ewes. We believe these to be some of the finest specimens in the country today. 

"John Ellman once said, that it was more
difficult to maintain a good breed than
to raise it to first class and he bequeathed
to today's breeders the challenge of
continuing what he began."
 
We are proud parents of an American soldier! We pray he stays safe

This economical barn was constructed from the carports you see along many roadways, due to its 5foot side height my husband and I built this with no outside help as the company erected the frame and top. We opted to add the siding vertical and installed sliding pole barn doors on each end.  It has a 6ft aisleway, allowing our lawn tractor ample room for easy cleaning of the pens, it has  a row of 4X6 lambing pens on each side. We chose the 18X40 foot size.

Just an idea for you beginning shepherds out there...
Demand far outweighs supply, reserve early!
