Shetland Sheep at Fibre Works Farm

We have had purebred Shetland sheep at Fibre Works Farm since 1998. Shetland sheep are ideal because:

Shetland sheep are hardy, low maintenance animals, easy lambers and good mothers that fit with our 'no fuss' philosophy of animal husbandry,

Shetland sheep produce a high quality fibre in many attractive natural fleece colours, that has a ready market and is also useful for our own fibre works,

Shetland sheep can be used as dual purpose meat and fibre producers if required,

Shetland sheep have distinctive personalities,

Shetland sheep have a well run North American Registry (NASSA), and

Shetland sheep hark back to our own Celtic/Viking roots.

See the buttons on the left for more details. Our Shetland sheep breeding stock is registered with NASSA. For an update on sheep for sale, email shetlands@fibreworksfarm.com or check our current Step by Step page. Sale fleeces are listed at the Gallery.
