Peterson Tunis

Peterson Tunis, Tunis sheep breeder in Brantwood, WI, sits in Iron County and the Lake Superior region near Ashland. Owner Alexandria Spenst has spent years raising Tunis sheep under national registry guidelines and conducts routine health evaluations. The flock is registered with recognized sheep associations and all breeding stock undergoes annual wellness exams.

Sheep are managed on open pasture with access to shelter year-round, and daily handling promotes calm temperaments among lambs. Some ewes trace back to regional champions, bringing hardy genetics suitable for small homesteads. The farm embraces sustainable practices rooted in local traditions and values clear communication with interested keepers. Young sheep share a bright, well-ventilated barn during harsh winters, with straw bedding and protected yards for their steady growth. Alexandria is happy to guide new and experienced keepers on breed-specific nutrition, pasture rotation, and overall flock management.
