Ram lambs available

I can't keep the boys, so they are priced to sell.. Email me at Locksleyfields@gmail.com
They are available as fiber producers/wethers. The last two have good potential as rams too.. Great all around conformation on both.

Morgan's ram.

Sweetheart- would be a wonderful fiber producer.

Diego

Nice looking HST pattern.

Amanda's ram

Good little ram- short crimpy fleece.

2011 Lambs & Sales List

Now relocated near Union, Michigan... The first Michigan Locksley lambs have arrived! Since I have my hands full with major renovation to my new home, all of this year's lambs are for sale. $50 non-refundable deposit will reserve a lamb- to be picked up at the time of weaning.. The parents of these lambs are my best/favorites out of raising Shetlands for 12 years (taking a couple yrs off to get re-established). I started out with a solid foundation in conformation, fiber and horns and added spotted genetics. All of these lambs carry spots if not spotted themselves. I raise smaller sized Shetlands with horned ram genetics- primarily from US (1980's Dailley import) bloodlines.. I do have a little UK bloodlines but I tend not to like the larger build and smaller horns, so all of my sheep are "domestic" US in looks. They are healthy, hardy, and great moms. My flock has been closed for at least three years now since I've been between places and finally got the sheep settled on my place this year. I didn't go into alot of detail with the list below- email me at Locksleyfields@gmail.com for more information or photos. More photos also on the post below.
Prices include registrations transfered to buyer.

One more ram for sale

Locksfield Cyrano
Yuglet Flecket Musket Ram
Born: 6/17/2009
Sire: Locksfield Montague
Dam: Locksfield Lumina

Outstanding spotted ram. Excellent conformation, great rear leg set and short Shetland tail. He has traditional style horns, with enough space between the horns and face.. Wavy coat tending toward double, with some luster. This beautiful ram is very much the "ideal" Shetland in my opinion. $200

Click on photos to the left for larger image. These were just taken this fall. Photos below are from last year.

His buddy, Locksfield Crimson Archer.. Available FREE to a good home.. Excellent moorit ram.. He is 8 years old and I'm basically looking for a good home for him. He probably has a couple years at least that he could be used for breeding... Had gorgeous lambs and comes from fantastic bloodlines:

Locksley Fields update

Well it's September already and about time for an update! The flock is still in Missouri. There are now just 10 Shetlands, most of which are my keeper flock.. I have one sheep still for sale- details below. The keepers include seven ewes, which I've dubbed the magnificent seven, because they are my favorites after 10 years of working on spotted Shetlands... I really tried to reduce the flock as much as I could, and that seemed to be the minimum number I could come up with.. I hope to figure out a way to start the flock up again and have some lambs next spring after going "dormant" for awhile. I'm currently in town without space for sheep, but I'm working on some ideas- either a small place on land or finding a place to keep them nearby.


Well, that's about it for farm-related news.. There are still shetland fleeces available from shearing this spring, when I made a trip down to get vaccinations, etc. done. Sold wool has been updated and listings are current.

Pictured above is my original ram, Fletcher Sundance. I was very lucky to have had the chance to start my flock with this incredible little ram.. He was all of the things the I think a Shetland should be: compact size, great conformation, including a naturally short little v-shaped shetland tail, nice face and horn set, in addition to a fantastic calm disposition. I guess you could say my goal has always been to create spotted Sundances.

Here's the last ewe available:



Locksfield Kaleigh
S30184 (Click for pedigree)
Black Bleset Ewe- Born 9/13/2008
Sire: Locksfield Joaquin
Dam: Locksfield Kaya Pepper
Young ewe with great conformation. Her bloodlines are excellent and I'd expect her to throw some flashy spotted lambs. This is a shy girl with a very black fleece. Pretty ewe. She is a Sundance granddaughter! Price reduced: $195.
