Babydoll Sheep

Everyone who sees the wooly teddy bear faces of our Babydoll Southdowns has to smile!  Each year, we welcome 6 to 8 new lambs to the flock.  Most years, we re-home all of the lambs to loving farms around the country. If you are interested in getting on the waiting list for a future lamb, please email us at heavensbales@gmail.com.  


The original miniature Southdown sheep originated on the South Down hills of Sussex County, England in the 1700s. In 1986-91, after becoming almost extinct, 350 sheep with the original bloodlines were located and a registry was formed to keep the line pure.. The lambs are registered with an ear tag number, which you can see in photos of our sheep. 


Babydolls are outstanding pets that produce fleece that is in the class of cashmere, a hand spinner’s delight. They provide organic weeding and make excellent companion animals. Their gentle nature makes them a joy to own!

Care of Babydolls:

Babydoll sheep are "Easy-Keepers" but they do need care and attention.


What are the basic needs of babydolls?

  • Babydoll sheep need good quality grass or grass/alfalfa mixed hay or secure area to graze
  • Access to fresh water at all times
  • Room to exercise
  • Secure shelter or secure area at night to protect from predators / shade during the day / wind block
  • Sheep mineral offered free choice 
  • Salt block (copper free) may be needed depending on salt content of mineral


Things to consider:

  • Babydoll sheep need sheep friends (sheep are flock animals and do not do well alone)
  • Hooves will need to be trimmed several times throughout the year
  • Annual shearing in the spring is a must for the health of the sheep. (I prefer to hire a professional sheep shearer to do this.)
  • Annual vaccinations of CD&T keep the sheep healthy
  • Worm treatment given as needed to keep the sheep healthy
  • A good veterinarian who knows sheep

  

Disclaimer:    

In order to reserve a lamb, we do require a deposit. Once a deposit is received, your name will be put on a waiting list.  The order of the waiting list is based on when the deposit is received.  If we don't have the desired lamb as requested, the deposit will be returned or can carry over to next breeding season.  We do have right to refuse sale to anyone and Heaven's Bales Farm does have first pick on lambs born.
