Ballyhoo Farm

Ballyhoo Farm is a Shetland sheep breeder in Bagdad, KY, serving Bullitt County and the Louisville metro area. They follow guidelines from the American Shetland Sheep Society and carry out regular fecal egg counts and hoof inspections to maintain flock health. Their sheep graze on rotational pastures with shelter available year-round, and lambs receive daily handling to encourage gentle temperaments. Ewes and rams reside in sturdy barns with fresh bedding, and pastures include native grasses tailored to the breed’s dietary needs.

One recent visitor noted the calm nature of the flock and the farm’s welcoming atmosphere. They offer guidance on wool care and breeding practices for owners seeking robust genetics and friendly dispositions. The farm’s small flocks allow for personalized attention and sturdy health outcomes in this heritage breed.
