Ag teachers - and families showing sheep - are you looking for spring born lambs to jackpot or for late summer fairs??? Online project lamb sale April 25-26 at https://www.integritylivestocksales.com/! Follow the Chico State Sheep for more details!
Chico State is offering 20 lambs this spring for jackpots or county fairs (or both). All lambs are February and early March born. Lambs are vaccinated for CD&T, soremouth, respiratory issues and will be dewormed prior to pickup. Lambs are on an 18% protein lamb pellet and receiving Rule Supplement's "The Formula". Lambs are green, weather has been up and down, but that just means more compensatory gain for buyers. There are purebred Southdown wethers, crossbreds (Southdown x Wether dams), and wether sheep. All lambs will start at $300 and sell on Monday April 25 through Tuesday April 26 on Integrity Livestock Sales website. There is a screenshot of all lamb information in this album as well.
