Rooster Ridge Ranch
Rooster Ridge Ranch, Shetland sheep, Edgewood, IA, is located in northeast Iowa near Dubuque. The ranch follows established herd health practices and maintains regular veterinary checks for parasite control and nutritional balance. Their breeding program prioritizes flock genetics to maintain wool density and calm temperaments across generations. Lambing takes place each spring with careful support for mothering instincts and early socialization.
Animals graze on rotational pastures and spend their days in open fields with access to barn shelter, supporting both wool quality and natural behaviors and offering shade in summer and wind protection in winter. Walter and Sandra bring daily handling routines to their flock, which helps young sheep become accustomed to gentle care and fosters a calm herd dynamic. Their approach to sustainable grazing supports land health, contributes to pasture biodiversity, and promotes consistent animal welfare. Seasonal shearing is scheduled for optimal fleece condition and clear weather coordination.
