Updated Sales List

Time to update the sales list to show who is still
available.






All of these sheep are registered and purebred.
We won't be shearing until next week - so some of them do look a bit raggedy - but I assure you - they are all gorgeous under all that wool.





Ewenique Gwendolyn: $200

Gwen is a Moorit Flecket - 2 years old.
Sire: WG Bok-Choy
Dam: WG Greta Garbo









Ewenique Wren: $250.00

Thistlecroft Thomas: $175

Thomas is a pure white ram.

Sire: Thistlecroft Hunter.
Dam: Belmeadow Rachel

Thomas has one horn that is turning in - it will have to be trimmed if he is kept intact.
However he has a beautiful fleece - so if you castrate him he will make a wonderful fibre pet as he has a very gentle temperament.


Hopeful Wilbur: $150

Wilbur is a wether (castrated ram).

He has a wonderful temperment - and an
absolutely beautiful fleece.
He also has a full set of horns. I will only sell Wilbur to someone who is used to handling rams.
I would love to see him go with Thomas as they are stall mates - and used to each other - so you
wouldn't have too much head banging.





Windwater Caramel (sheared) $250

Caramel is a mioget gulmoget - 3 years old
She has a beautiful fleece and is very shy.
For a picture of her in full fleece - scroll to earlier post.

Dam: Kalwa Taure Trinity.

Born April 24/10

Zeus is pure white - with a pink nose.
His fleece looks to be evenly crimpy all around.

Tons of white in this little guys genes -
so he's the one to give you white lambs.


Kalwa Taure Dude: $200

Born April 24/10 - triplet

Sire: WW Rosie
Dam: Thistlecroft Thomas

Dude is a gray bersugget - meaning he
will fade to gray - but he carries spots.

More Sheep for Sale

Ok - I'm adding a few more sheep to the sales page tonight.

Please note - some of them look quite raggedy
as I was just learning how to use the hand shears - and yes - I did miss some spots on
them when I was shearing. When my shearer gets here next week I will have him clean them
up.


First up tonight is "Little Dude", he is one of Rosies triplets this year. He looks black - but he will fade to gray. He is a gray bersugget - I think.

$200

So far his horns look good.
Sire is Thistlecroft Thomas
Dam is Windwater Rosie.
DOB: April 24/10

Note: We have been supplementing him with a
bottle as Rosie was not accepting him at first.


Next is:

Zeus.

$250

Sire: Thistlecroft Thomas
Dam: Kalwa Taure Trinity.
DOB: April 24/10

Zeus is gorgeous - I absolutely love him. He has
a wonderful crimpy fleece - his horns look good.
Both his parents are white - so he is no surprise.


This is Ewenique Gwendolyn.
(Yes - I forgot to shear her neck).
S28060
Sire:WillowGarden Bok Choy
Dam: WillowGarden Greta Garbo
$200.

She is a Moorit Flecket. She has a brown spot on her side - and the back of her neck is a big brown spot as well.

She's a real darling.



Ewenique Wren:
CSBA 632338
Sire: Woolly Fred
Dam: Willow Garden Lentil
DOB:April 5/08

$250

Fawn Katmoget.
(I forgot to shear her belly).
Also very much a darling..



Remember - contact me if you have any questions. Thanks.

Sheep for Sale - 2010.

OK - It's time to start selling off the sheep due to a shoulder/neck injury. Unfortunately, my website it down - so I will start with the ones I have pictures of.


We'll start with Windwater Caramel:
S25896
Sire: Willow Garden Box Car Willie
Dam: Windwater Rosie

$250

Caramel - is a mioget, gulmoget, krunet ewe.
She has a beautiful fleece.







Next is Windwater Rosie - and her triplets.
First we'll talk about Rosie.
She is the mother of Caramel above.
She is also a mioget, gulmoget, krunet ewe.
Her fleece is very nice as well.

Rosie is $250 SOLD PENDING PAYMENT
S21972
Sire: Willow Garden Luther Vandross
Dam: Willow Garden ZsZsa Gabor

Now for the triplets:

She had 2 white ewe lambs with mioget spots.
So - technically - they are white - but if you breed them - you could get mioget.
BOTH WHITE EWE LAMBS ARE SOLD - PENDING PAYMENT.

She also had a gray bersugget ram lamb.
(I will post his picture tomorrow).

The lambs will sell for $200 each.


Next in line is Carnal Flower, SOLD
S27474
Sire: Veliraf Silver Streak
Dam: Windwater Caramel

$200

Flower is a black ewe with no markings. She is 2 years old.
Yes - in this picture - she really needs to be sheared (my shearer is coming next week).

Next up is Windwater Snickers:

$250.

Snickers is a mioget flecket ewe.
This is a picture taken of her last year just after
shearing.
S25897
Sire: Willow Garden Box Car Willie
Dam: Windwater Lilac
DOB:5/2/2007





Next is Windwater Lipstick Rose:

SOLD
S27475
Sire: Veliraf Silver Streak
Dam: Windwater Rolo
$250.

Rose is a black gulmoget, bersugget ewe.
She is also 2 years old.
Very friendly - and a very dense, crimpy fleece.

She's very hard to get pictures of because she is so friendly.







Here we have Hopeful Wilbur.

$150.

Wilbur is a wether - meaning he is a castrated ram for those of you who aren't versed in sheep.

He has an incredible light gray fleece.
I will only sell Wilbur to someone who is versed in sheep as I don't want anyone getting hurt with a larger ram.
Wilbur is rather skittish - but very nice tempered.


And last but not least:
Thistlecroft Thomas S30011
Sire: Thistlecroft Hunter
Dam: Belmeadow Rachel

$200

Thomas is an intact ram - pure white.
He does have one horn turning in - and before I got him, the shearer cut his horns quite severely.
If you wish to keep him intact - his horns will have to be trimmed yearly so the one does not
hurt him - however - if you castrate him - and trim the horns - they will then grow very slowly.
Thomas is very much a gentleman - and the two ram lambs he sired this year look to have good horns.

So - that's all I have pictures of for today.
Terms - 50% deposit by cash or certified cheque. I will not hold any sheep for longer than 5 days.
Pickup must be within 2 weeks of the cheque clearing the bank. Delivery is not included - but
can be arranged - usually - as we travel quite a bit.
All sheep are vaccinated and dewormed on deliver.

Please contact me if you have any questions at: tammyward@xcelco.on.ca
or - post a comment - I do check the blog daily.
