Burbrink Show Stock

Burbrink Show Stock raises Katahdin sheep in Columbus, IN, serving Bartholomew County and the Bloomington area. They have built their flock over a decade of selective breeding and maintain membership in the North American Katahdin Hair Sheep Association, with regular health screenings to ensure vitality and adherence to breed standards.

Their sheep are managed through a pasture-based rotational grazing system that promotes natural foraging, enhanced parasite resistance, and strong hoof health. Lambs receive regular handling from birth to develop calm temperaments suited to both show rings and homestead settings. The Burbrink family homestead serves as a base for careful selection toward structural soundness and uniform coat quality across generations.

Their lambs consistently display strong maternal instincts and adapt readily to performance evaluations. The flock sheds naturally each season, reducing handling stress and labor for caretakers. Many owners note the breed’s resilience and ease of care in varied climates.
