FOB Beyer Farm

FOB Beyer Farm, Katahdin sheep in Lodi, WI, is located in Columbia County and the Madison area. Patrick Beyer maintains membership in recognized breed associations and follows recommended health testing protocols. Routine hoof trimming and scrapie monitoring are part of the farm’s efforts to safeguard flock health and genetic quality.

Katahdin lambs graze on rotational pastures, adapting well to changing seasons and reducing parasite pressure. Sheltered barns offer year-round space for rest, and daily handling ensures the flock remains calm and adaptable. The farm’s pasture-based approach takes advantage of the breed’s natural shedding, minimizing stress from shearing and supporting low-maintenance husbandry. Visitors note the sheep’s robust build and gentle temperament, reflecting an emphasis on welfare and sustainable practices throughout the year. Breeding decisions focus on mothering ability and parasite resilience to support flocks suited to both beginner and experienced keepers.
