Secondly, we have Contented Theobroma. To see his pedigree, just click here. Theo is a proven moorit ram. He's a gentle ram that understands his place around humans. We used him last year on two of our ewes (to figure out what they were genetically) and he threw twins both times. I just love the light patches he has on his face. Very striking. They were also visible when he was a lamb.
The third and final ram we have available is Contented #15. He's just waiting for the right home to name him. He is also unproven. He is unregistered at this moment, but is the offspring of Contented Theobroma and Islandfleece Rakel. He was born April 14, 2008. You can see Rakel's pedigree here. He has a nice intermediate fleece. At this point, I don't see any registration faults with him. He's got real nice looking horns and everything else seems to be in the right place. :-)
If any of these rams catch your fancy, just give us an email or post a comment to the blog and we'll get right back to you. Our prices are reasonable ($150 for unproven and $200 for proven) and we figure registration or transfer costs are ones that we should absorb. We do have a discount when you buy two or more. Lambs, like #15 also come with a horn guarantee. If for some reason, his horns turn wrong we'll refund half the purchase price.

hey that one ram looks to have moonspotting on his face! who is he out of?
I'm assuming you mean Theobroma, the moorit ram? I'm not sure exactly what that is, but he's always had it even as a lamb. He's out of Sabbath Farm Celebrian, a moorit ewe that I still have and Maple Ridge Wilkins, an Ag grey ram that I lost this year after shearing.
I've never been completely positive what moonspotting is, so I've never really paid any attention to his little "blinkers". They do make him look special.
If he's not the ram you're talking about, just let me know and I'll tell you about the one you are curious about.
