 Mud Ranch Jacobs in Lewiston
offers a dual purpose heritage breed of sheep called Jacob Sheep. They are a multi-horned animal that come in a spotted
pattern of black and white, or the more rare color lilac and white. Both ewes and rams can have two to six horns,
two and four being most common. We generally lamb in February and have registered breeding stock available, as well
as locker lamb. The Jacob's meat is very lean and full of flavor! We used to not like eating lamb until we
had Jacob, now it is our favorite meat. Also available is hand-spinning fleeces, yarn, and roving for spinning, and
washable pelts sheepskins. We have a website at www.mudranchjacobs.weebly.com, as well as a Facebook page at www.facebook.com/mudranch, and an Etsy shop at www.mudranch.etsy.com. All animals are raised without the use of pesticides
and chemicals. Please contact Joan for more information at MudRanch@gmail.com.
