ADO Sheep

ADO Sheep raise Katahdin sheep in Singer, LA, serving Beauregard Parish and southwestern Louisiana near Lake Charles. Darrell and Jean Adams have developed their breeding program over more than a decade to emphasize parasite resistance and suitability for low-input systems, participating in national registry programs while maintaining routine health screenings to support genetic diversity.

The flock grazes on rotating pastures enriched by native grasses, and lambs receive early socialization through gentle handling on a small family farm. Their approach to sustainable pasture management and attentive care helps sheep develop calm temperaments suited for both homestead flocking and small-scale production.

Visitors note the Adamses’ open exchanges about breeding goals and day-to-day operations, reflecting a deep respect for livestock welfare and regional farming traditions. They collaborate with local extension agents to refine pasture rotation plans and monitor flock health through seasonal checkups.
