Miniature Sheep


Zippity Zoo is a USDA Licensed Exhibitor and Breeder:  #55-C-0158


2008 Spring Lambs Now Arriving!!
We are selling all of our sheep at this time...
Ewes will not be sold until they lamb...

At this point we do not register any of our sheep...We are trying to develop a naturally polled, small framed, pet quality sheep that has a gentle temperament and a great wool type for hand-spinning...We are using a combination of many breeds including:
Shetland, Babydoll Southdown, Mini-Cheviot, Tunis, and Jacobs

All of our lambs are handled daily to socialize them with people, so they make great pets even if they are not bottle-fed...
However, if you wish to get a bottle-fed baby you must notify us before the 'last date to put on bottle' that is listed...

The following fees will apply for bottle-feeding:
$50 Extra - To start each lamb on a bottle for 3 - 5 days before the new owner takes over... (Note: We reserve the right to refuse this option to anyone that we feel lacks the experience needed and/or is not capable of being able to bottle-feed adequately.)
$200 Extra - For us to bottle-feed to the weaning date

Status Explanations:

Retained
