[Jacob-list] Jacob sheep: St. Jude's Farm flock dispersal

[Rich & Sue Martin]

So sorry to hear you are ending your shepherding career - but that time does come for each of us.  You have contributed so much knowledge over the years regarding these wonderful sheep and  you were always willing to share that information with fellow breeders.  Thank you, Fred and Joan -- every one of us has benefitted from your efforts and we thank you also for your contribution to research.  We wish for you pleasant memories of your St. Jude flock and the many friendships you've made with fellow Jacob breeders.

  Dear Listers - Time and temperature have conspired to set an end to my shepherding and our flock.  We have a flock of about 100 but roughly half of them are reserved for research.  About a dozen of our sheep are going to a veterinarian next week (parasite research), nearly 2 dozen (G444R carriers) have already gone to a university.   Departing stock trailers is a time of sadness but some of the departing sheep will leave a continuing mark as their departure means the warehouse of knowledge will be larger.

  We still have some of our pure bred Jacobs (both registered and unregistered and all with pedigrees) which will be available to interested breeders.  We are sorry it has come to an end for us.  If you are interested in any sheep or curiosity has bitten you; you can see our sheep at www.stjudesfarm.weebly.com  

  St. Jude's Farm and the flock here in Lucas TX will be gone in about 30 days;  If you want you can call Joan or me at 972-727-0900 or send an email.  

  Regards = Fred Horak
