We were blessed with the opportunity to purchase the Toth flock this summer. We couldn’t be more grateful for this. That said, we are limited on space to lamb in the Spring. This ewe flat out intrigues me. She is built so well, good-footed and pretty-made. Dew Drop Farms has been pumping out some good ones, and Darin has been known to sell his best ones. It shows in this one. I hope she stuck to “Twisted Trickster” because it should be a hammer (pictured). She was my toughest decision to sell right away from the Toth flock. Don’t miss her.

I committed to this sale, but boy it can be hard to sell these brood ewes sometimes. This ewe is another one that came with the Toth flook. I mated her to “Ragweed”, the 2024 Champion Ram from NAILE and then put her with “Benchmark”. I will clean up with “Twisted Trickster” until sale day. This ewe is a complete one that has some rib design. If my barn was not going to be full, I would have held on to her. My loss; your gain.

Lessman 152 is big topped and feminine in her design. She looks to be super competitive next summer as a yearling. She was 4th of 21 in the SD State Fair 4-H show and 5th of 22 in a stacked SD State Fair Open Class show. Dam was sired by “Tatanka” and grand dam is a “Remedy” daughter that consistently lays down and gives us keepers every January. BULLINGTON EWE LAMBS - -

We have had so much success with Weston sheep. This one is no exception. This ewe is cool-fronted and wild-colored. We retained a daughter from her so we feel we can offer her at the Northstar Sale. These ewes ran with some of our best rams. I put her in with “Twisted Trickster” (pictured) to start with; he was Champion Ram at NAILE in 2023. Then she went with “Benchmark”, the Champion Ram at last year’s Ohio State Fair for Little Oaks Livestock.

This ewe is pretty special in my eyes. She is a big-bodied, solid-made genetic giant of a female. Opportunities like this are not found very often. She is sired by “Howdy”, Champion Ram at Louisville 2018 and dammed by the infamous “Bingo” ewe, Champion Ewe 2018 NAILE. This ewe is just a special as her mom. She was put in first with “Twisted Trickster”, then “Benchmark” (pictured) and will go back in with “Twisted Trickster” until sale day. Whichever way she breeds, I think it clicks hard in a super positive way. Don’t let this chance slip away.
