Our flock of approximately 100 brood ewes has evolved through a strenuous selection process, which emphasized structure and genetic predictability, as well as balance and muscle shape. We've also tried to include a few "bells and whistles" such as tight front ends, neat chest floors, flat loins and big hips, with hopes of pleasing even the most critical of evaluators.

This line-breeding program was generated through the use of Cabaniss and Hancock genetics. Each breeding piece was critically selected for our flock with specific traits in mind. From those few rams and ewes, a very dominant group of ewe families have surfaced dating back to an old, line-bred Cabaniss 212 ewe, to some more current lines which revolve around our original Hancock Ram "Broker" (31 x 411). You can find Time, 801, 31, 411, and "Stopwatch" many times in our pedigree's. These revolutionary sires are the foundation of our program.

"Trademark" (31 x 411) and "Patent" (Rupp x Broker / 801) are once again the featured sires for our 2004 crop. We have found these two proven rams to be the epitome of consistency within our program. In their first year of production,  "Trademark" and "Patent's" lambs were very well received, not only from elite feeders, but judges alike. In their second year they have established themselves as two of the most powerful Hampshire stud rams in the industry. Both of which have generated champion wethers and produced ram lambs that are at work in some of the most notable flocks in the country.

Due to our aggressive pursuit to breed "the great one" we have invested in two, partial outcross rams. The first, "2100", is the ram lamb we purchased half interest in from Mike Hancock. He is by Miller "244" on the top side and a "31" daughter. We feel this guy can add a new dimension to our program without sacrificing the muscle and pattern that we have labored over. If you like them stacked with muscle, coupled with and awesome touch and extremely wedge-like pattern in there top design, then he should please even the most skilled evaluator. He will be utilized on both  "Trademark" and "Broker" daughters primarily. With his first crop on the ground we've noticed a definite trend in his offspring. awesome rack, loin and hip shape with that little extra kick down low.

The second addition is an RRNN ram from the Cabaniss flock. "Timber is an April 12th son of "Cash" and dammed by a "118" daughter, thus he is tightly linebred and truly exotic visually. He offers the most dynamic combination of pure muscle shape and elegance that can be achieved in one specimen. Our expectations of this sheep are lofty and we think you'll see why. The 2004 crop will be heavily influenced by Timber.

We have also retained the services of two "Trademark" sons from the 2002 lamb crop. Both lambs are dammed by tremendous "277" daughters, and since we feel strongly about the quality of the "277" line, we thought it necessary to allow both of these rams an opportunity to mature. "Protocol" and "Icon"  have evolved into two of most promising young rams in the industry. Each bringing to the table traits that are demanded by elite breeders and feeders alike.

The flock is maintained in the beautiful Uintah Basin of eastern Utah. John and Jeane do all of the management, lambing and daily care, while Clay and Lili do most of the marketing and take care of many decisions related to breeding and genetics. If any questions arise, please feel free to contact either family.

You will find that we are very critical of our breeding program and make rigid decisions regarding our ewe flock and their production. We expect our females to be neat uddered, highly maternal, and low maintenance. The ram's that are produced, and offered for sale, are those that we have kept to watch for use in our own breeding program. They are obviously from proven ewe families that we have faith in, and only the elite remain intact. Because of our stringent selection process, we feel that our customers can purchase stud rams with confidence.

It is because of our fierce quest to produce complete, high quality, predictable show lambs and breeding stock that we can offer genetics that we're proud to promote. We wish all of you the best of luck in your sheep related endeavors and sincerely hope we can work with you in the future.
