Interested in our sheep but need delivery? 
In September we made a delivery trip though CA, the SW, Midwest, South and Southeast and we also sent sheep with friends who delivered to the East Coast.  Based on sales, we'll be looking at making similar trips next Summer.  This Winter we'll be staying closer to home but will consider deliveries to neighboring states for quantity purchases.  Contact us for more details.

Border Leicester Cross Lambs

Below are photos of our Border Leicester Cross lambs.  They were all sired by SuDan Farm Goober, a very handsome, gentle and slightly plump Border Leicester ram.  We started using Goober several years ago on some of our Jacob and Navajo-Churro girls who just weren't producing the purebred quality lambs we were looking for.  Since most of these girls are older and are friends of the family (i.e., Karen wasn't willing to part with them) we decided to find a way they could stay and still contribute to the farm income. 

Crossing a Border Leicester ram with our Jacob and Navajo-Churro ewes gives us fast growing lambs that carry the distinctive Border Leicester head and confirmation, making it impossible to mistake any of the resulting lambs as purebreds.  Their fleeces are quite nice and range in character from medium with crimp, to long and lustrous.  They're an affordable option for people who just want to produce a few lambs every year for fiber and/or meat.  They also make terrific lawn mowers, fiber producers and market/meat lambs

Terms of Sale...
•25% down will hold your selection with the balance due by the time the sheep leave our farm. Prices are FOB Newberg.
•Prices for unreserved/unsold animals are subject to change. 
•Border Leicester cross lambs are already value priced so we do not offer discounts on them.
•Travel related expenses are the responsibility of the buyer, and for shipments outside of Oregon will include a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (approx. $35), plus blood test fees if required by the destination state.
•Our delivery fees are determined by figuring our estimated round trip mileage, multiplying it by the estimated cost of diesel fuel at trip time, then dividing it by the number of sheep going on the trip.  It's difficult to predict delivery fees too far in advance of delivery trips due to unstable fuel costs, but we make every effort to keep the fees reasonable.  Contact us for a delivery fee estimate.
