Adorable Valais Blacknose x Gotland Ewe lamb
Description
Fern, a VALAIS BLACKNOSE x Gotland ewe lamb was born in 2023. Best known for being known as the Cutest Sheep in the World, Valais Blacknose sheep are also the friendliest and will follow you around like a dog hoping for pats, scritches and attention.
Fern is 50% (f1) Valais and with her people loving nature is a fantastic pet and fibre (wool) sheep and great for breeding too.
Fern (registered Gotland x Valais) will be a wonderful addition for anyone wanting fabulous, soft, curly, long wool with lots of luster (shine). She is very friendly and loves attention, even coming up to strangers to visit with them. She was sheared in the fall and has already grown 5-6” of wool. There is a small chance she is pregnant to a registered Cotswold ram.
$1400. Extremely rare the Valais Blacknose are just starting to be bred in Canada from imported embryos and semen.
First two photos are recent.
Located in Roberts Creek, a short ferry ride from Vancouver, BC. See more of our sheep at www.underthefeather.com
About the Valais Blacknose sheep Valais Blacknose sheep are best known as the Cutest Sheep in the World. They are new to Canada and being bred up to purebred, there are a few purebreds imported as frozen embryos in Canada. Valais sheep are incredibly friendly and often described as dog-like with their people loving personalities. Ours are also very trainable and we are teaching Annie (Valais x Babydoll) how to do tricks like a dog, she quickly learned how to walk on a lead and is learning how to spin and go over ramps and the teeter-totter. Valais Blacknose have amazing wool and can be sheared twice a year yielding 6 – 8” long, soft, lustrous fleece. We carefully chose our ewes for friendly, easy going personalities over the wilder but closer in colour Scottish Blackface sheep that others are using to breed up with and this is paying off with in your pocket lambs.
