Welcome to Veliraf Icelandic sheep.  We are currently a small flock, but with time and patience I'm sure we will grow.  Our original four Icelandic ewes all came from Nancy Pease at Glen Osprey Farms, and up until 2007 our rams have always come from Stefania Dingum of Yeoman Farm. Our herd health is taken very seriously, and when we do decide to introduce new animals into our flock they are quarantined in a pen far away from our other animals. We are currently free of OPP, scrapie, footrot, and CL, and we will do our best to keep it that way. We are also enrolled in the Voluntary Scrapie Flock Certification Program- Flock #50.

     Our lambing season is just around the corner for 2008.  We're hoping to see lots and lots of ewe lambs born here this year. (Well, even more than two would be nice!!!)   We already know what colour and patterns we'll be getting out of Arnold- as he only carries white and mouflon patterns.  He does carry black and moorit though, so lambs could be either of those colours as well.   So, the lambs born this year will be solid white, black or moorit mouflon, with or without spots.   Our two ewe lambs from 2007 are just gorgeous- they are twin sisters with very similar markings.  They are both black spotted mouflons.   We will likely have some gorgeous ram lambs available for purchase, since here at our farm it appears that we are quite good at making ram lambs!!!!
