Byler Family Farms

Byler Family Farms, Katahdin sheep, Munfordville, KY, Hart County and the Green River near Bowling Green. They have been raising sheep for over a decade and are members of the American Katahdin Hair Sheep Breeders Association, with regular health screenings for parasites and hoof care.

Lambs are born and raised on rotational pastures, where daily handling encourages calm, cooperative animals suited to small farms and homesteads. A focus on maternal traits and hardiness has led to ewes that consistently wean robust lambs, a quality noted by local flock owners. Their farmstead includes shaded shelters and mineral troughs to ensure year-round comfort and nutrition.

Ben and Susan Byler carry on a family tradition of livestock care, combining hands-on experience with sustainable pasture management at their century-old barn. Their breeding goals prioritize efficient feed conversion and adaptability to local climate, traits valued by homesteaders and smallholders alike.
