They have been working with Shetland sheep for several years and follow guidelines set by national sheep breeding associations to maintain health and genetic soundness.

They keep their sheep on rotational pastures with access to sturdy shelters and fresh water year-round, and lambs receive daily handling to build gentle temperaments. As a family operation run by Connie Kutzleb and Kenneth Kutzleb, they emphasize sustainable grazing practices and low-stress animal care. Their breeding program focuses on preserving the breed’s compact size and versatility for small-acreage farm operations. The farm’s fleeces are known locally for fine fiber quality and consistent staple length. Visitors often mention the calm, trail-friendly nature of the sheep during routine walks.
