Eubank Acres

Eubank Acres, Barbados Blackbelly sheep in Dunnellon, FL, serves Marion County and the central Florida region near Ocala. Joan Eubank has been raising Barbados Blackbelly sheep for over a decade and maintains registry associations with recognized breeders, following performance evaluations and comprehensive annual health testing.

The flock grazes on well-managed pastures with shade structures, allowing lambs to thrive under attentive care from lambing to maturity. Several ewes have placed in county livestock exhibitions, reflecting careful selection for health and vigor. Breeding stock is selected for maternal instincts and parasite resistance suited to humid summers.

During lambing season, each ewe receives individual attention to ensure healthy starts, and lambs are slowly introduced to open pastures. The farm’s sustainable practices emphasize rotational grazing and minimal chemical interventions to support environmental balance. All lambs depart the farm after health clearance and proper acclimation.
