Benz Rambouillet ewes pictured in mid January
OUR
MISSION:
 Our goal is to raise big framed, correct,
fast growing Rambouillet sheep with a
good fleece. We hope they work in the show ring but our goal is to raise the
kind of sheep that can live on grass and survive in nature's conditions.
Our
60 ewes are all DNA tested and are expected to lamb by themselves and get
their lambs up and nursing without assistance.
The ewes
pasture and are expected
to breed on native North Dakota grass. We think Rambouillet sheep can be "pretty" as
well as tough.
We have a high percentage of scrapie resistance in our flock
and normally have a number of RR rams and ewes for sale.
If you have any
questions about our operation or the sheep pictured below please
contact us.
OUR NATIONAL SHOW & SALE ENTRIES

Lot 11
This is a big, stout
QR ram. He is sired by our Cunningham ram and out of a daughter of the
Viet ram. His 2009 sister will be kept in the ewe flock as a replacement.
He was third place spring ram lamb at the 2008 NAILE. To top it off, his
granddam had the 2nd place ewe fleece in Roswell. |
Lot 12
This RR ram is very
correct with a huge hip. He has been the favorite of most visitors since
he was a lamb. Sired by the Cunningham ram, his dam is out of the Viet ram
and the mother of our Reserve National Champion ram in Buffalo, WY, .
purchased by Ron Sutherland. |
|
Lot 13
He is long, very
correct, and has a lot of bone. This RR January born ram lamb is sired by
the Cunningham ram. His dam is by the Reserve National Champion Ram in
Buffalo purchased by Ron Sutherland. |
Lot 14
This ewe is out of a
ewe we purchased at Lynn Frey’s dispersal sale. The Frey ewe dammed the
ram that is at stud for the University of Wisconsin. She is sired by the
Cunningham ram and is at least QR. |
|
Lot 16
She’s very correct,
thick and has a great fleece. Sired by the Cunningham ram, neither of our
fall ewes will have to spend their life with their heads in a feed bucket
to stay in shape. At least QR. |
Lot 17
Another sound,
square, extremely heavy muscled daughter of the Cunningham ram. Both of
our fall ewes entered should make outstanding brood ewes. She’s RR. |
|
Lot 18
A super fancy,
long-bodied Jan. ewe lamb from the top of the keeper pen. She’s a full
sister to Champion Ewe at Louisville last fall. We don’t sell ewes like
her very often. She too is RR. |

A well balanced,
correct late Jan. ewe lamb sired by the 2nd place fall ram at
Louisville last fall. Her granddam had the 3rd place fleece
ewe’s fleece in Roswell. At least QR. |

This January
ewe lamb is sired by Benz 2284, the big ram we had at the national in

2284. Look for lambs like this from them in the future. She’s RR. |
