Christopher Boday

Christopher Boday, Tunis sheep breeder in Marshall, NC, works in Madison County and the Blue Ridge Mountains near Asheville. He has bred Tunis sheep for more than a decade and holds membership in a national sheep registry, conducting annual health checks for parasites and foot health. His flock grazes on 50 acres of rotational pasture, with daily handling to build a calm temperament and early socialization. Christopher focuses on conserving heritage bloodlines and has supplied breeding stock to small farms across the Southeast.

Lambs receive supplemental bottle feeding and turnout from the first weeks to support growth and resilience. His approach balances traditional husbandry with eco-friendly pasture management, fostering a healthy environment for both sheep and land. The flock has access to weatherproof run-in shelters and fresh water year-round, and they are fed a balanced diet that includes mineral supplements and oat hay. Regular veterinary visits and parasite monitoring help maintain flock health and quality.
