Mema's Inclination

Mema’s Inclination, Shetland sheep in Gilmanton, New Hampshire, operates in Belknap County and the Lakes Region near Laconia. Its flock is registered with the American Shetland sheepbreeders association and lambs undergo routine health screenings before joining the grazing rotation.

All lambs are born and raised on site, allowing breeders to monitor maternal welfare and early growth milestones. Sheep are raised on rotational pastures with daily interactions that encourage early socialization and resilience. The farm follows guidelines for parasite management and nutritional programs tailored to Shetland needs.

Pasture layouts are designed to rotate flocks through mixed grasses and legumes, supporting soil health and diverse forage. The farm’s family-oriented care ensures each animal receives individual attention between weaning and adulthood, fostering consistent wool quality and gentle temperaments. Practices reflect a balanced blend of traditional husbandry and ongoing well-being monitoring, with barns offering sheltered bedding and natural light year-round for a calm environment.
