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.

Navajo-Churro Sheepskins
 Navajo-Churro wool comes in a wide range of natural colors (for a list of Navajo-Churro colors & patterns click here), is classified as coarse and is composed of three distinct types of fiber: 1) Inner Coat: wool fibers ranging from 10-35 microns, comprising 80% of the fleece, 2) Outer Coat: hair fibers measuring 35+ microns, comprising 10-20% of the fleece, 3) Kemp: short opaque fibers of 65+ microns, not to exceed 5% of the fleece. The fleece is open with no defined crimp and should be lustrous with a silky hand. Navajo-Churro sheep can grow 8" to 12" inches of wool a year (up to 1" per month).  We shear our Churros twice a year so staple lengths on our pelts range from 2" to 7".
