BLB Ranch

BLB Ranch, Katahdin sheep in San Angelo, TX, thrives in Tom Green County and the Concho Valley near Midland. Bill and Linda Brown have bred Katahdin sheep for more than a decade, emphasizing flock health with routine screenings and parasite resistance assessments. They work with regional sheep groups to stay informed about sustainable pasture practices and breed selection standards.

Their sheep graze on rotational pastures where gentle handling starts at birth and hoof care is monitored monthly. The couple’s farmhouse setting encourages daily interaction, helping lambs grow accustomed to human presence before weaning. Some of their lambs have been showcased at regional agricultural fairs, reflecting the Browns’ steady commitment to sustainable farm practices.

They select replacement ewes and rams based on maternal traits and conformation, ensuring hardy offspring suited to Texas climates. Lambing is managed in spring and fall to align with regional forage availability, promoting natural growth and sturdy foundations.
