Wooly Bee Farm

Wooly Bee Farm, Leicester longwool sheep, Caledonia, IL, serves Northwest Illinois near Rockford. Susan B. Ziller has been raising these gentle sheep for over a decade, participating in the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy and conducting regular health screenings.

The flock grazes rotationally across pastures bordered by wooded shelter, blending traditional pasture management with daily hands-on socialization to prepare lambs for family farms. All breeding stock undergoes annual scrapie testing and parasite screening under USDA guidelines. Their soft fleece attracts weavers and spinners seeking long-staple fiber.

Each lamb is born on a bed of hay in a licensed birthing stall, ensuring early exposure to calm human interaction. Over the years Wooly Bee Farm has welcomed visitors to walks among breeding ewes, illustrating its commitment to transparent breeding practices. The farm’s focus on genetic diversity supports both fiber quality and flock health, reflecting respect for heritage breeds.
