We’re excited to “hop” in to 2026! ✨

Farm dog, Rip, had a fun time “helping” take some videos of the fitteds after getting them cut out!

We had an awesome run on the green chips! We were honored to be competetive in both the slick and fitted side of things, coming away with multiple class winners between both open and junior shows.

It’s hard to believe 2 years ago we watched the slicked Dorset show and decided we wanted to take a stab at it. A huge thank you to the breeders and friends who have helped us along the way! We are excited to see what this years lamb crop brings! Stay tuned for fitted and slicked lambs for sale in 2026.

Highlights are on the pictures! Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!

We’re happy for a break but excited to see these hit the green chips this fall!

We checked a bucket list item off today ✅

🏆Grand Champion Ewe 🏆
Illinois State Fair Open Dorset Show

Our families have been fortunate to purchase a lot of good sheep from other breeders over the years. This win is special as she’s a product of genetics we’ve selected and put together. A big thank you to all who helped us get here! More highlights of the week to come.

SOLD

‼️Stud Ram for sale‼️

RSF 2320 has done a great job for us but it is time for him to move to a different pasture. We purchased from Mike Reynolds in the Spring of 2023. He is a McDaniel 21-11 Last Rights x RSF 1840 (who is a member of Mike’s major stud buck producing ewe family). He has consistently thrown good built, stylish lambs that have a lot to them. He is in his working clothes now, but that’s to be expected after breeding ewes for fall. He still has a lot of gas in the tank!

Asking 5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣

Located at the Torrance Ranch in Good Hope, IL.

We have 3 lambs available for butcher at Allen's Farm Quality Meats!

Contact us to claim yours! We have really enjoyed lamb chops and brats this summer. They are great on the grill or cast iron!
