Blondie Barnyard LLC

Blondie Barnyard LLC, Katahdin sheep, Livingston, MT, in the Gallatin Valley near Bozeman. It has been raising Katahdin sheep for several years with membership in the American Katahdin Sheep Breeders Association and routine health testing. Owned by Andrew Alberda, each sheep’s health receives close attention from birth through breeding with lambing seasons monitored daily, and lambs receive vaccination according to recommended schedules and are individually tagged for record keeping. Animals graze on rotational pastures, receive daily handling and socialization, and are sheltered in barn-run structures that reflect a rural family operation.

The focus on pasture-based husbandry and careful breeding records supports flock vitality and temperament. Visitors often note the sheep’s calm demeanor and sturdy build. The farm’s small-scale setting and regional pasture management aim to honor both tradition and animal welfare. Breeding decisions prioritize structural soundness and parasite resistance suited to the local climate.
