Susannah Binaris, Tunis sheep breeder in Hunt, NY, practices hands-on care across Steuben County near Elmira. She has raised Tunis sheep for several years, follows established breed registry standards, and schedules routine health exams to support flock well-being. Her flock grazes on managed pasture throughout the growing season, and lambs receive daily handling from birth to build calm, confident temperaments.

The farm environment balances open fields for grazing with sheltered barns stocked with fresh bedding, helping sheep adapt smoothly to shifting weather. She works closely with local veterinarians to develop vaccination protocols, manage parasite control, and follow hoof trimming schedules. Fleeces from her flock are prized by fiber artists for their consistent staple length, fine crimp, and smooth handle in both natural and dyed shades. Detailed records accompany each lamb, covering lineage, birth weights, health history, and wool evaluations for buyer confidence. Prospective owners often note the sheep’s gentle nature, sturdy conformation, and adaptability to varied farm settings in this rural landscape.
