This page is dedicated to our sheep and goats that are not pure, but instead are mixed or crossed.  Such as Alise, who is part fainter, part pygmy and half nigerian dwarf goat.  Some say that mixed breed animals are often healthier and more long lived compared to their pure counterparts.  We can't vouch for that but we do notice that when a virus or other illness comes through our flock our mixed breed sheep and goats are usually immune or show minimal signs of whatever infection is currently going on.  We don't have fancy paperwork on our mixed breed sheep and goats but our prices aren't as high on them either and paperwork does not matter when it comes to having a nice, healthy pet to eat weeds and even to produce milk.  Our Kona, mom to Alise, gives a little more milk than our Nigerians and I've noticed that the taste is a little sweeter too but she is still a nice small animal who doesn't require heavy duty fencing or a ton of food to keep her nice and fat throughout the winter.  So please take a moment to see what we have for sale on this page, all our animals receive the same high quality care no matter what their parentage is.  All our animals are wormed on a regular basis, hooves are maintained nice and trim and have their CDT shots every year.  I need to point out that when we say "crosses" we do not mean that we have bred a sheep to a goat! That is almost impossible and if it did happen we'd be very rich.  Our angoras are goats, not sheep so when we cross one with our Nigerians it is not a sheep/goat mix.  However if one of our rams did mate with one of our angoras all it would do is cause her to go out of season and we would not have a kid the next spring at all.  It can happen but we would lose an entire year of breeding on the female, she could not produce anything from the mating. 



GiGi is 1/2 Southdown and 1/2 babydoll. 


Lilly had twins again, both girls!  Lilly's lambs will be for sale for $50.00 each. Lilly Lilly delivered her twins on April 23rd, 09.   Her lambs are 1/4 Shetland, 1/4 Romanov and 1/2 babydoll.  They should stay nice and small and have excellent wool and temperaments.   


This is Lilly's white lamb at six weeks old as of June 3rd.  She is for sale for $50.00 We call her Angelina because she is snow white. **Sold**


This is a closeup of our little Sharona, Lilly's second ewe lamb from this year (09).  **Sold**


Sharona taking a break on a warm day after filling her belly with hay.  As you can see, she is darker on her body and is almost black on her rump and belly.


Lilly, our shetland/romanov cross.  Lilly is shown here with the first of her twin ewe lambs from this past summer (08).  Lilly has been bred to Bandit for a Shetland-Romanov-Babydoll lamb.  A quick note about Lilly, she is actually 1/2 shetland and 1/2 romanov.  The romanov's are known to have "litters" of lamb.  Lilly has yet to have a litter but both times she has been bred here, she has delivered twin ewe lambs, Lilly is an excellent mother to her own lambs and twice I've seen Lilly by the side of other ewes "assisting" them as they deliver their lambs too she is smart and a great mom.  We are happy to have her as part of our flock.


Lilly is shown here again with her twins from '08.  She has delivered twin ewe lambs for us two years in a row.  Lilly is 1/2 shetland and 1/2 romanov; romanovs are known to deliver litters of lambs. 


First steps, this photo was taken just as this little ewe lamb was trying out her legs, 10 minutes after she came into the world. 



This is Lyndsey when she is sheared.  She isn't lopsided, she is just standing at a weird angle.   She is a year old in this photo, (09).   Lyndsey has been sold.  Thank you Nick!


Kona is shown here with her kid from 08 by her side.  Sugar is on the right.  Kona is a pygmy/fainter cross but looks just like our Nigerian girls.  Same size and a great milker too.  I actually like her milk a little better than our pure Nigerians, it is a bit sweeter tasting.  **1/21/10 Kona is pregnant again and due any day now-we'll update the website with pictures and descriptions of her kids when they arrive**


Alise is about 6 weeks old now (as of 10/22/08).  Alise is 1/4 pygmy, 1/4 fainter, 1/2 nigerian but she looks all nigerian and will stay small.  Alise is for sale for $50.00 .  Her mom is Kona, her daddy is Night.  Alise is the friendliest kid out of crop of kids this entire year.  She begs to be picked up to eat the leaves on the trees and she cuddles like a teddy bear. **Sold** Thank you A Zoo to You***
