Babydoll Southdown Sheep

https://www.facebook.com/babydollsouthdownsheepatbergamascosbabydollbrigade I spent over a year contemplating. Thank you for your continued support.

The last lambs produced on the Bergamascos' Babydoll Brigade® left with their new families in July 2020. The decision was finally made it was time for me to retire if I could find a home where the flock could stay together. We, (myself and my husband, lovingly known by all as Farmboy) will be forever grateful to Justin & Mandy Slaven (and their children) of Buckeye Babydolls located in DeGraff, Oh

io, for being so excited about being given the opportunity and ultimately giving our entire ewe flock a loving home, enabling the girls to continue to be together. I found my rams three different homes with families in Kentucky where they will be herd sires. I will continue to be active with the North American Babydoll Southdown Sheep Association and Registry (NABSSAR) mainly as their secretary, webmaster, and annual calendar coordinator. I also plan to continue posting on this page, sharing photos I take and information about raising Babydolls. I decided to keep all of my fleeces from my 2020 shearing. Processing, spinning, and knitting their twenty-one gifts should keep me busy for many years to come.

If you've been told Babydoll Southdown wool is crap, you've been told wrong. Some photos I took while I was processing Babydoll Southdown from raw wool to yarn and links to my projects from 2013 through 2020 (working on 2021 through current).

New and seasoned shepherds. A suggested reference book. I read my copy cover to cover a couple of times. Keep in mind, some adjustments may need to be made due to the smaller size of our Babydolls.
