Doug 411M is a son of UK ram, Piddington Douglas and out of a daughter of British ram, Brereton Nairn. The dam's side of the pedigree traces through many of the top ewes in our flock. 411M is a ram that should sire some real good replacement females. He is thick and deep so should also add some muscle to his sons. He is a ram we have considered using and only due to having so many females in the flock who are maternally related, we have decided to offer Doug for sale. AI sired rams do not come available that often, especially with so much breed character. Buy with confidence. AUG. 9 WEIGHT 142 LBS  SCROTAL 31.5 CM

Lots of breed character, sired by my main flock sire who traces to Bennachie Nimrod, a British ram that worked very well for me. The dam is sired by Tattykeel 80/97 an older Australian line, who in my opinion has more maternal than a lot of the more modern Austalain Polled Dorsets. I like the combination of British on the 80/97 daughters. Scrapie genotype RR.

We have been culling very hard in the Shropshires. This guy made the cut and has been grown out slowly for longevity. His dam has been lambing on our accelerated program, lambing every 8 months. She lambed again in January and is now just bred back for September. We get a few more singles doing this. The ewes in this pedigree have been very productive for us and accelerate well. He is a long and deep bodied ram with a great future ahead of him. Weight 188 lbs, scrotal 33.5 cm.

Lots of British genetics here! A son of Piddington Nico and a grandson of Hornpipe Blackbird, this AI-sired twin weighed 82 pounds at 76 days of age. Growth and muscle, along with excellent breed character! Scrotal 34 cm. Scrapie genotype RR.

This is the ram lamb that I decided to keep and use. His sire is 22495 who has only a very few offspring in Canada. The dam is a realy productive ewe sired by Bennachie Nimrod, making 430M 3/4 British. A powerful, solid ram to infuse more UK genetics into my flock. This guy has pretty good length and i expect great things out of him on the 807/N3 (British) and Tattykeel 80-97 (Australian) daughters. He weighed 125 lb on June 10th. One of only 2 sons off 22495, in Canada as far as I am aware. Outcross genetics with all the breed character and structure that i am looking for.

This is my top Canadian Arcott ram from the January-February 2025 lamb crop on GenOvis for Gain. Adj. 50d wt 56.5 lbs, adj. 100d wt 118 lbs. Yes, he is a single, but give his mother her due, she is an accelerator. Without time for a proper flush, accelerators do tend to throw more singles. She is also the dam of the top May 2024 ram, Major 544M. (Her own GenOvis numbers are extremely high as well.) *Update, she lambed again in August and had triplets.

So, meet Neptune 499N. Being a grandson of Pol 943G never hurt anybody. And the CARC 559X line is known for growth and size. He is an impressive ram in the flesh. 

Not only is he my top ram on the GenOvis Top Rams In Proof list (for Gain), he is my second-highest for Carcass.

Here is a fall ewe lamb with lots of breed character. She is out of my best Bennachie Nimrod (British ram) daughter and out of a Tattykeel 80/97 daughter whose dam goes back to Huish Nugget, another British ram that did well for my flock. She was going to be a replacement until the decison to go to the Classic was made. I do occasionally have second thoughts about selling her, but I think she will represent my flock well, so here she is. Almost forgot to mention, I kept a maternal brother for a flock sire.

Likely the first son of Brereton Torry to sell in North America. Brereton Torry is a massively made British ram who sired a really nice crop of lambs for us. On the dam's side you will find a really good ewe 173F, who is on our accelerated program. 173F traces back to two other British rams, Hornpipe Blackbird (Badger 148D's sire) and Brereton Nairn (134D's sire and from the same flock as Brereton Torry). This is a ram that should be a top flock sire, with lots of maternal as well as growth. I debated about keeping him to use but have too many rams already.

A fall ewe lamb sired by one of my imported British sired rams from Janicki's in Washington. Green 20 is sired by Richhill Axel, which makes him an outcross to most if not all British genetics in Canada. The dam side goes back to having all four grandsires being British rams. So this young lady is very heavily influenced by British genetics. She would be welcome to stay but I can't keep them all. Scrapie genotype RR.

Here is a young ram sired by the New Zealand ram, Douglas Downs 77/95. The dam is a tank of a ewe, not tall but lots to her. She has been lambing every 8 months and traces back to two British rams that I have used quite successfully in my flock. The Poorton 996G daughters are hard to beat. I think this guy is a pretty neat package, with some stretch and thickness and a pedigree that says traditional and maternal. Scrapiue genotype QR.

THANK-YOU TO DANIEL ECKER FOR PURCHASING KIWI 477N!

Of the five January 233K sons, this is the one that most resembles his sire.  As soon as I see him, I know he is a 233K son. He has both the foundation ram and the first-generation ram on his pedigree, so he is close to the foundation of the breed. His growth was great, and his loin scan was too. Though his CARC index is only in the 70th percentile, this is due to his being a little heavy on the back fat; however, his loin measurement was in the 93rd percentile. He has stretch and a nice wide top, his loin is very long, and on loin scanning day the depth was 31.1 mm.

484N GenOvis: Gain 90% Carc 71%  Mat 80% Mat-U 80%  Mat-HP 67% Mat-UHP 73%  *Ultra Loin is in the 93rd percentile.

 On loin scanning day, 490N was the heaviest of the five 233K sons, and in fact of the whole group of 15 ram lambs, only two ouweighed him. He is a bit of a bruiser, great heavy bone and loads of muscle. (Please take note, in the photo where he looks hump-backed, he is busy bawling, they always look humpy when they're bawling, the photo was bad timing on my part.) This guy knew how to grow, and that is not just a testament to his sire, but also to the great milking of his mother. The 15H daughters are a maternal line, and good milking means growth- his 50 day Gain is in the 96th percentile. Add in the 233K ram as a sire, and you can't really go wrong- his 50-100 day Gain is in the 97th percentile. (His twin sister was no slouch, either.)

490N GenOvis- Gain 97% Carc 98%  Mat 87% Mat-U 91%  Mat-HP 82% Mat-UHP 89%  *Ultra Loin is in the 93rd percentile.

He is my top ram (and the top Canadian Arcott  ram) on Genovis for carcass on the Top Rams In Proof list. He is also my highest on the Gain list.

Though technically available, this ram is going to make an impressive yearling. Therefore I am happy to keep him for the spring Badlands Select in 2026. I am not trying very hard to sell him, but if you think this is the ram you want, let me know.

Finally, I have a group of 161L sons to offer. Of the 15 January ram lambs selected to keep or sell for breeding, five were sired by Luke 161L. That ram was my chosen 943G son, and I have never regretted that decision. 

The Sky Blue 4211J ewe is a bit of a sleeper, she is one of those ewes you don't notice, she just sort of sits in the crowd, doing her thing. She likes to have singles, though she has had twins, and she doesn't like to lamb out of season, so I found myself not expecting great things, and then she did this. His 50-day weight (atrributed more to the dam's milking) was in the 84th percentile. This lamb grew like a weed, and you couldn't help but notice him. He is super smooth, has great bone, and a really nice loin and hindquarter. Type-wise he follows in the footsteps of his sire and grandsire, looking just like them. HIs 50-100 day Gain (atrributed to genetics and sire influence) is in the 90th percentile.

**UPDATE-watch for the maternal numbers to take a nice jump on this guy. His dam, Sky Blue 4211J, after I posted the comment about her not having a lot of twins and not liking to lamb out of season, just decided to prove I was a bit hasty. She had triplets in August.

I love everything about this ram. He may not be the biggest, or the heaviest, but when you look at the overall animal, it's the smoothness and correctness that strikes you. Conformation and structure matter too, and his percentiles are still good even if they are not in the high 90s. There are other things in life besides numbers.

If you like a ram that is built like a tank, this may be the one for you. In the photos, you may think he is short, but he isn't. He is so thick that it visually shortens him up a bit, but if he was unusually short, he wouldn't be here (we won't keep and sell something we wouldn't use ourselves). The thickness on this ram is unbelievable. He is built like a brick (expletive deleted) house.

One of the lighter lambs on loin scanning day, he was also the youngest of the Canadian Arcott ram lambs. But his loin measurement was great (back fat a bit high). The first thing I notice on him is the bone. This ram can go out for pasture breeding and travel for miles. He could take a concrete barn floor, too. Some of his growth can be attributed to his dam being a 15H daughter (my maternal girls); they milk well and his 50-day weight is in the 82nd percentile. The 50-100 day Gain is in the 87th percentile, and that is more attributed to genetics and the sire's influence. There is no doubt the 161L sons know how to grow. He has the muscle and thickness we hope to see on Canadian Arcotts.

Here is a nice fall born ewe lamb who traces back on the sire side to British ram Sandy Knowe Trent, through 300L who was the high selling Suffolk ram in the 2024 Badlands Select Spring Sale. The dam 276K, is sired by Semiahmoo Jacob who was purchased through the online Classic sale. This ewe lamb was going into my replacement pen, but when we decided to come to the Classic, I thought I should bring a top representation of my small Suffolk flock, so here she is.

THANK-YOU TO (Loading...) FOR PURCHASING MIA 451M!

This is a fall-born ram that had some kind of injury, probably from a fight, so I decided to pull him out of the Badlands Select Sale. However, he seems to be completetly recovered. The concern is if his fertility was affected by a combination of discomfort, stress, and heat. So he will be semen tested this fall before he is available for sale. **UPDATE- this ram was semen tested on Aug. 30, passed and all good. 

A pedigree chock-full of the foundation and first-generation AI sires. I can't go wrong when I breed a Canon to a Polly (or a Pol to a Candy), and this ram's sire, Canon 941G, is knocking it out of the park consistently. 941G is the sire of the Champion Canadian Arcott Ewe at the 2025 All Canada Classic in Brandon, making this ram her half-brother. Forgetting who his sire was, I took one look at his photos and I knew, this is a 941G son. Which translates to thickness, muscle, and a top like a table.

There are certain breeders who prefer a larger frame with longer legs, and there are breeders who prefer a more moderate sized, heavier-boned, low-slung, shorter-legged style of Canadian Arcott. This guy is the latter, so if that is your type, this could be your ram. His 50-100 day Gain is in the 88th percentile. His dam was the mother of the high-selling ram in the 2024 Badlands Spring Select.

*Update,- this ram's sire, Sheep Trax Canon 941G, is slated for semen collection this fall. Before export-eligible semen can be collected, all rams have to be MV-negative. I am holding this ram until we know the sire is MV-negative. If he happens to be MV-positive, I will collect him for owner's use only, and then ship him. If that should happen, I am keeping 439M. So for now he is on hold. But please remember we have tested several sheep for collection and for export, and haven't had any MV-positives yet that have lived their whole life in this flock. Rams that have been away and brought back can potentially be a different story, but 941G has been here since birth.

Bailey had triplet boys on July 15th. One is already spoken for. The second one had a VERY mild case of Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome. He is doing well, but I am not going to try to sell him until after his vet check and vaccination. FCKS kittens who recover (FCKS is all or nothing, they almost always either recover or die quite young) often have a mild heart murmur (which is almost always gone by 6 months of age). So until he has the all clear, I am holding onto him for a bit. And of course, best laid plans... that kitten is now spoken for.

But this fellow is ready to be spoken for!  They are all now at the stage of: eating, playing, sleeping, running amok, and getting into as much trouble as possible.

Ready the first weekend of October! Get in touch asap if you are interested.  sheepncats66@hotmail.com will bypass the Junk folder!

They are so little I figured I would start out by posting the whole litter. There are five of these little beauties; there are four boys and just one girl. Three males are spoken for. The female will be color tested as I am looking for a dilute carrier (mother is a dilute carrier) to keep, so until I have results I won't know if she is available. 

sheepncats66@hotmail.com will bypass the Junk Folder, contact me asap if you would like to speak for the remaning male!

Ready mid-November.
