What I Wish I Knew Before Starting a Valais Blacknose Sheep Farm

So you want to raise Valais Blacknose sheep? Here's what I actually learned in my first few months running Wool & Wonder Farm — including the stuff no one talks about. In this video I cover: 00:00 – Intro 00:45 – Bedding & straw: deep method vs. shallow method 02:00 – Why sheep are picky eaters (and why the boys are the worst) 03:10 – Parasite management & fecal egg counts — what you need to know 04:00 – Valais genetics and why every pairing decision matters 04:45 – The real labor of farm life (it's not what you think) Wool & Wonder Farm is a registered Valais Blacknose sheep breeding program in Connecticut. We're building a small, intentional flock and will have lambs available.
