Elkhorn Flock Farm

Elkhorn Flock Farm, a family-run operation breeding Barbados blackbelly sheep in Franktown, Colorado, serves Douglas County and the Denver area. Rebecca and Jay Lukes have been raising this hardy breed for over a decade, hold membership in regional livestock breeder associations, and follow recommended health testing through recognized veterinary labs.

Their flock grazes on rotational pastures bordered by native grasses and wildflowers, and lambs spend daily time with the family to encourage gentle, curious temperaments. Sturdy shelters protect the sheep from Colorado’s variable weather, while routine hoof trimming, tailored mineral supplements, and regular veterinary checks support strong health.

Visitors to the farm can observe daily chores in a restored barn dating back to the early 1900s, gaining insight into sustainable sheep husbandry rooted in the Lukes’ respect for pastoral traditions. They regularly showcase select individuals at county fairs and educational events to promote awareness of the breed’s adaptability and meat qualities.
