Maple Hill Dorcas A100-06 |
![]() Huntsberger Deirdre FF045-05 |

(Skokan's Abner x Puddleduck Nell), Twin...Dorcas has lovely fleece, strong horns, had a really well marked, nice ram lamb this year.
|
Deirdre came
with Jamie to the AGM here in VT two years ago, and with her daughter,
Charlotte, stayed. Charlotte has moved on to a new flock. In '06 Deirdre
had a gorgeous 4 horned, black socked, black muzzled ram lamb who did
some work here and then moved on to another farm. Spring '07, from the
shape of her, I will risk predicting she'll have twins. A little standoffish,
but better than before. |

Maple Hill Benjie Lasseau FF017-07 |
Maple Hill Hannah A102-06 |
| (Puddleduck
Olivia and Marsh View Horatio ) |
Benjie is one of two ewes I purchased from a shepherd north of here,
who bought 5 Lasseau ewes and one ram 25 years ago, and who has added
no outside ewes, and changed rams 3 times...so I guess they are as pure
Lasseau as one can find these days. Very strong horns, despite the fact
that Benjie broke off the top of one of hers a year ago, great fleece,
nice twins this year. She's an old girl, not quite sure HOW old.. |

Maple Hill Caroline B072-07 |
(Southwind
Pied Piper x Unzicker Ava) I FINALLY got a granddaughter of one of my all time favorite ewes, Royal Unzicker's Avonlea, and she decides that TODAY she won't hold her head up like her Granddam does, deer like. Oh, well...Very friendly, very nice fleece |
(Tomasina
x Skokan's Abner) Named by my grandson, Peter, who is obsessed with
turtles. She broke off one of her laterals early on. She will have her
first lamb(s?) '07 as a yearling. |
(Maple
Hill Joshua x Maple Hill Elnora)...another of Elnora's progeny, who
also features Huntsberger blood in her veins, as Joshua's dam is Deirdre,
whom I bought from Jamie. One of my favorites despite her less than
cookie cutter perfect face. |
Maple Hill Jacqueline Lasseau FF016-07 |
Maple Hill Amanda B071-07, |
|
The second of the ewes I got from the Bartletts, from Lasseau lines. Jacqueline, unlike her older sister (we think), has become very friendly since she arrived here. She has very good fleece, has a little ewe lamb this year. Last year, twin ram lambs. |
(Unzicker Captain x Maple Hill Mimi), Amanda didn't get bred this year...She was one of five in with a ram lamb who didn't "get it" until the last three days of the breeding period; he bred three out of his five girls. She has lovely fleece, and her grandparents are Maverick Magnus, Joy Farm Stella, Marsh View Horatio, and Puddleduck Olivia, winners all! I look forward to beautiful lambs from her next year. |
