Shun T

Shun T Shetland sheep in Woodburn, OR are bred on a family-owned farm in Marion County and the Willamette Valley near Portland. With years of selective breeding experience, they adhere to Shetland sheep registry guidelines and follow breed health testing for parasite resistance and structural soundness.

Lambs are raised on rotationally grazed pastures where they receive regular handling, nutritional monitoring and shelter in a barn during lambing season. Co-owners Kathleen Meeks and Darcy Perry coordinate daily care routines and pasture planning to promote grassland biodiversity and provide attentive lambing care. Visitors often remark on the calm temperament of the lambs and the farm’s commitment to sustainable husbandry across generations.

Their entries at local livestock exhibitions have highlighted the fine fleece quality and hardiness that are hallmarks of Shetland sheep. Wintering takes place in sheltered paddocks with conserved forage, ensuring consistent nutrition and hoof care throughout colder months.
