Liberty Acres

Liberty Acres, Shetland sheep, Selma, Indiana, in Rush County and near Indianapolis. The Becky Daugherty Lovett Family has been focused on Shetland breeding for several years, is an active member of the Indiana Sheep Association, and follows recommended health screening protocols including regular hoof trimming and fecal egg counts.

Their sheep rotate between open pasture and a well-ventilated barn with clean straw bedding, and lambs receive gentle daily handling to support early socialization. The flock benefits from rotational grazing across diverse grass and legume species to reduce parasite pressure and enrich pasture ecology. Feeding plans emphasize forage diversity supplemented with mineral blocks to maintain balanced nutrition throughout the year.

Several of their fleece entries have placed at the Rush County fair, reflecting attention to wool quality and consistency. Through careful record-keeping and selective pairing, they support strong maternal traits and a calm temperament suited to fiber arts and small-scale farms.
