Flying Pig

Flying Pig raises Katahdin sheep in Alto, TX, East Texas and the Piney Woods near Tyler. Sarah Cogdill has spent several years refining bloodlines through registry memberships, collaborative breed evaluations and regular health screenings. Each lamb grows up on rotational pasture under open skies, receiving daily handling to build calm temperaments and familiarity with farm routines.

The farm blends rotational grazing with simple open shelters, encouraging natural social behaviors, robust growth and improved soil health throughout the year. Routine hoof trimming, parasite monitoring, dental checks and nutritional assessments help maintain flock health through fluctuating weather and pasture conditions. Breeding decisions prioritize maternal strength, parasite resistance, adaptability to local pastures and ease of lambing for a balanced flock dynamic. Several offspring have joined family herds seeking a hardy, low-maintenance meat breed with consistent performance and calm dispositions. Sarah provides transparent lineage, health records and pasture management tips to stewards new to sustainable sheep care.
