Sheep Breeders in Kentucky?

[CountingChickens]

Hey y'all. I want to start raising sheep in 2023, so I am on the hunt for all the information I can gather before then. In other words, I am trying to get my "sheep" in a row haha. I have looked around on the internet and can't really seem to find any sheep breeders in my state or around. I am hoping to find a breeder who raises East Friesian sheep or any other diary sheep.

Thanks!

Welcome To BYC!

I don't know a thing about sheep. Sounds exciting for you though
I'm not sure how many folks on BYC raise sheep, but you may want to check out our sister site BackYard Herds. https://www.backyardherds.com/

Good Luck!

Contact the breed associations. They ought to be able to help you.

I don't have that breed. When I was looking to add sheep that was one of the breeds we were looking at getting into. We ended up with Shetlands cause I could not find any East Friesian in or around Kentucky.
