Holy basil cortisol
The fleece is dual coated, with a fine, soft undercoat called thel and a longer, coarser outer coat called tog.
We are located in the farmlands west of the Cascade Mountains in Washington State. Tog is a true wool, and is not a kemp or guard hair. It is lustrous, strong, water- and wear-resistant, and sheds off the rain and weather. We process the fleece ourselves or at a small local spinning mill. Producers often shear their Icelandics twice a year. We keep our flock small intentionally, selecting only the best breeding stock to continue. Tog grows from the primary hair follicles and the thel from the secondary follicles. To advertise in the sale catalog, submit this form via mail.
The average adult yearly fleece total weighs 4-7 lbs. The sheep are sheared again in the fall to harvest the fleeces before the animals go on hay for the winter. Thel is very soft and downy, with an irregular crimp and can be used for baby garments, and for the fine shawls in the style of the Wedding Shawl.
Stay tuned for another possible litter summer 2021. Every July, we hold a Ram and Ewe Sale. We are currently comprised of three separate small family farms within a few miles of each other who support each other in our goals to raise happy and healthy Icelandic Sheep. Due to Covid-19 limitations, our Annual Ram & Ewe (in-person) July Sale was cancelled. The combination of the two fibers on the sheep gives superb protection from the cold and wet. With the combination of the economic and market advantages of grass fed farming, and with the appeal of the delicious flavor, the Icelandic breed is a natural for direct-to-consumer marketing."
We raise Jacob sheep and naturally Colored Angora Goats. Nestled in the foothills NE of Ellensburg, Washington at just over 3100 feet, the goal of Starshire Ranch is to humanely raise quality breedi.. Starshire Ranch is a farm located in Ellensburg, Washington owned by June and Erik Aploks. With the leaner, European style carcass, and the mild flavor, Icelandic lamb can appeal to the palate of even those consumers who avow they "just don't like lamb." The weight loss when washed is significantly less than many other breeds.
The animals produce lovely soft wool and mohair. According to the Icelandic Sheep Breeders of North America: "The Icelandic breed is considered a mountain breed, and historically mountain breeds have been milder in flavor, and leaner than the lowland breeds.
We call this picture "shearing a dalmatian".Rio is a tri-colored English Shepherd, from Nelson and Annie at Blueberry Hill English Shepherds.
