We here, at B&S Club Lambs, currently farm

Suffolk, Hampshire Sheep and Karakachan Livestock Guardian Dogs.

Suffolk Sheep are found throughout the world's sheep producing countries. In the United States, they are by far the most popular pure breed of sheep, accounting for more than fifty percent of purebred sheep registrations. In the British Isles, they are the leading terminal sire breed. The Suffolk breed originated almost 200 years ago on the southeastern coast of England as a result of crossing Southdown rams and Norfolk Horn ewes. Originally Suffolk Sheep were called Southdown Norfolks or just "Black faces."

The first Suffolks arrived in the United States in 1888. After the second World War the sheep industry moved towards a larger, meatier, open faced sheep and that's when Suffolks gained in prominence. Suffolks have bare heads, black faces, and bare black legs but no horns. They breed aggressively and have upstanding carriage, an active nature, the capacity for rapid growth, and a good mutton build; they are, however, relatively light fleece producers. Suffolk lambs grow faster than any other breed and yield heavy, high cut-ability carcasses which is in high demand by today's health conscience consumers.

We protect our flock with the Bulgarian, Karakachan, Working Livestock Guardian Dogs. There are only approximately 700 of these pure bred dogs in the world. Two are on our farm and we will have full bred pups for sale to working farms in 2014.
