Lone Cottonwood Katahdins

Lone Cottonwood Katahdins, Katahdin sheep in Westphalia, KS, serve the Flint Hills region near Topeka. Wyan Bowman and Joanne Bowman have over fifteen years of experience raising hair sheep and hold registrations with both the American Katahdin Sheep Association and the National Sheep Improvement Program. Their breeding program emphasizes rigorous health testing for parasites and hoof health along with careful record keeping of lineage and weight gains.

They focus on rotational grazing across native pastures, supplementing with mineral-rich grains during breeding seasons, and ensure lambs receive early handling for calm temperaments. The flock includes multiple regional champion bloodlines and a subset devoted to on-farm lambing workshops for fellow breeders. Visitors and reviewers often comment on the Bowmans’ willingness to share knowledge and the consistently strong condition of their ewes and rams. As a multigenerational family farm, they apply lessons passed down over decades to maintain balanced nutrition and animal welfare. Pasture rotation on compact acres reduces parasite load naturally and supports soil health.
