DAM:
These two ewes are sisters out of a set of triplet ewe lambs that were nearly identical! Good luck telling them apart, so you might as well take them both home and keep them together! Both offer a very attractive profile and look from the side. They are related to two ewes that we sold in this sale a couple of years ago to John Mrozinski of Colorado that have gone on to be good producers for them. Very similar markings and all were raised on the dam with no assistance from us! We normally don’t let ewes raise their own set of triplets, but this ewe did an outstanding job with these three girls. We kept the sister and are offering the other two. Their dam FRA 5321 has been an excellent producer for us who works and produces in an accelerated lambing program and produces quality offspring that excel in the showring or the lambing barn. FRA 5321 is a daughter of POY 16-9 and our old SHU 3908 ewe. Both ewes sell exposed to TOR 23-815 ‘Hammer Time’. They were then cleaned up by Cotton Eye Joe and then Joe Exotic. Will confirm pregnancy by blood test and will get a fetal count the day of the sale. Dam’s Production History: S, TW, TW, TW, S, TR, S.

A triplet sister to the 2024 Midwest Stud Ram Sale Reserve Champion Ewe who sold to the Rodman family, MO. This ewe line has been tremendous producers for us as her grandma is SCD 6666, who is still in production for us and consistently producing the good ones. Her dam also produced one of our top fall rams in our 2025 Open House and then lambed again in April with a second set of triplets. 7 lambs in 2 years. 7992 may have gotten the short end of the stick in terms of size compared to her much bigger siblings, but she has lots of quality. She sells exposed/ marked heavily to Joe Exotic as we used him as a cleanup ram. Will confirm pregnancy by blood test and will get a fetal count the day of the sale.

It was a little warm when I pictured these ewes and 8254 was the only one that didn’t want to show off that day and I really don’t blame her! We’ve had a rough August/ September will little to no rain and multiple weeks of hot temperatures. 8254 will make a solid brood ewe just like her dam DGL 8195. She sells exposed to TOR 23-815 ‘Hammer Time’. She was then cleaned up by Cotton Eye Joe and then Joe Exotic. Will confirm pregnancy by blood test and will get a fetal count the day of the sale.

Sired by STU K 854 who has done a great job at making replacement females for our flock that add color and quality. 8307 is a twin out of a first time ewe who turned around and lambed this spring again with triplet ewe lambs and raised all 3 of them. We had originally consigned this ewe to the SCKA sale in Kentucky, but she had a little incident before the sale and needed treatment and is completely back to normal now. She blood tested open before the SCKA sale, but has since been put with Joe Exotic for to breed and will run with Joe until the sale. Will confirm pregnancy by blood test and will get a fetal count the day of the sale. Dam’s Production History: TW, TR.
