[Jacob-list] For Sale

[Heather Hettick]

I had a baby last year and didn't sell any ewes so this year I have to
make some decisions about who I can keep so my flock stays a manageable
size.  I still have decisions to make based on lambing and shearing
results but these are a few I know I want to find homes for.

All ewes would be available after weaning her lambs so around May for the 
yearling, maybe as early as April for those with lambs already.  I'll
certainly have lambs for sale as well but I want to evaluate them first.
This year's ram is a 4 H lilac with and exceptionally nice personality -
McClain's Maverick with mostly Hatch background.  He'll be two this year
and is not for sale.

PUREBRED JACOBS:

Moonstruck Violet:  4 years old this year, Lilac and White with Blue eyes 
and 4 horns.  Horns are a little weak and somewhat forward, but wool is
nice and has been a good mother.  Born a twin and produced Single ewes
last 2 years and trips this year but lost one.  They were very small and
the ewe that died really needed extra attention but was her least favorite.  
Wool is nice, last year's buyer commented on cleanliness and softness.  I 
can send samples of wool and pictures, including pictures and info on
progeny who are both currently in my flock. I'd like $200 for her as
she's the kind of sheep I really like in my flock but I am keeping her
twin sister and mother and she's already produced lots of ewes for me.  

Moonstruck Princess:  Yearling, triplet, 20% Black, 4 horns, fused -looks 
two horned. Half sister to Violet, mother is lilac. Exceptionally calm
and friendly for a yearling - her brothers were bottle-fed.  My largest
yearling this year. $150.00

Moonstruck Laurel:  Yearling twin, 45% black 4 horns - top horns tip
forward.  Soft wool - may be a little freckled and her mother fades. $100.

Moonstruck Myrtle: Yearling, twin, 55% Black, 4 horns, freckled with soft 
wool. $100.

Moonstruck Isis:  Daughter of Violet above, 2 years old this year. 
Black with blue eyes, produced nice ewe lamb last year. $175.00

JACOB CROSSES OR NON JACOBS:

Tunis:  3 year-old, 1/8 Romney 7/8 Tunis, very large but looks like a
Tunis with nice wool and good mothering skills.  Raised twin ewes last
year. $100

Black Tunis/Jacob:  Yearling, twin, polled, totally black, nice soft long 
wool. $100

Spotted Tunis/Jacob:  Yearling twin, polled, mostly black with some white 
spots including blaze on face.  Her white spots are longer- quilted. $75
