2023 breeding rams available!
How often do you get a chance to find purebred, yearling rams for your breeding program? And see what they’re like grown? Very seldom in my experience! BUT we have some!
We have three yearlings; all purebred. However, one does not meet breed standards and will not be registered.
$750 for the two that can be registered; $650 for the flashy looking one who can not. Great temperaments and raring to go!
I kept these guys back for the year to see how they’d grow and ideally, place them in someone’s breeding program 👌🏼
We can’t keep them because we have their mommas and we’re not ready to change up our ewes 😊
Let us know if you’re interested!

We have kitties!
Sparrow had her annual litter of kittens 🥰
She’s the only cat who is left intact so I have someone that can carry on the Captain Blacktail line. These cats have a healthy sense of survival and are very affectionate with their person. I’ve lost only 2 cats from this line over the years!
If you’d a kitty, let me know! They’ll be ready in 2 weeks as they’re only 6 weeks old come Wednesday.
Any of them not rehomed will be spayed and neutered, like everyone else from my cat pack 😉

Update on Mickey!
An update on our little boy, Mickey 😃
He’s gaining weight, running around and super affectionate! Just wants pets ALL THE TIME 😂
For anyone who’s familiar with the weaning process, there is typically a drop in weight as baby goes through the stress of being separated from momma.
Here at the ranch, we fence line wean to reduce this stress. It allows baby and momma to still see and talk to each other but prevents baby from being able to nurse. As far as I can tell, that’s what Mickeys prior owner did as well.
I’m interested to know how everyone else weans their equines!
Additionally, I’d like to know if anyone in Alberta and BC has had a farrier “rescue” their equine and subsequently kept it? Let’s say, due to “free” services later coming with a massive bill?

Welcome to the ranch!
This is a bonded mother and daughter pair; 11 and 7 years old. The man was willing to sell them separately but that just didn’t feel right to me.
The paint (daughter) is newly trained under saddle and to drive and does really well. The black (mother) has had a saddle on her twice; so she will be my project and it’ll be a learning experience for us both!
Both have awesome temperaments and will make great kids horses.
Now that’s three ponies…going to need one more to make a four horse team 😉😄

Well, it’s not the prettiest video 😂 I’ll get better next time out 😉This is Baabaa and her two new twins, a ram and a ewe, lambed last night around 9. Baabaa is one of the original 5 here at the ranch and is estimated to be 10–12 years old. I don’t know about breeding her anymore but she’s in great condition and a great mother. We do have to watch to make sure the lambs are able to nurse on both teats as they are large and get engorged. We are also keeping an eye to make sure the milk production is there. #indifolkranch #lambingseason #americanblackbellysheep #ABB #bbsai #albertasheep #sheepifinstagram #farmlife #farmher #westlockcounty #shoplocal #sheepfarmer #hairsheep #maidensheep
