Katahdin Hair Sheep are hardy, adaptable, and are low maintenance sheep that require no tail docking and they produce a fleece that requires no shearing. They are very docile and are easily handled. The ewes have exceptional mothering ability and lamb easily. Many of the Katahdin ewes have twin lambs which are born vigorous and alert.
 
 

Tough growing conditions this year.
This year brought some tough weather conditions for raising show wethers this year. On Easter, we had 6" of snow and on Father's Day we had 14" of rain. This makes for very interesting holidays and extreme conditions for raising show wethers. We typically get 24-26" of annual rainfall. For the month of June, we received approximately 30" of rainfall. This made it very hard to keep wethers and breeding animals healthy.
