As a fan of American as well as Barbados Blackbellies, the horns on your sheep 
are FABULOUS!  My sister has started breeding Painted Desert sheep, there are 
two things that are a must for painted desert sheep, 1 is Horns like these and 
2 are American Blackbelly sheep.  My American Blackbelly ram is going to sire 
Painted Desert babies and I can only hope he has a rack like these rams!  Well 
done.

Subject: [Blackbelly] California Rams May 2011

My sister brought her DSLR camera over and took some nice photos of my
5 intact rams. 2 of them are yearlings from my 5 rams born last May.
Only two made it this far intact. The other 3 were wethered.

No captions on any of the pics yet. There's two pages, but you should
be able to just click on the pictures you like best and not have to
slog through all of them

enjoy!

The pictures are lovely, and they have beautiful horns, I am curious as to what 
weight and muscle they are?  Do you keep track or are you breeding for their 
horns only?

I don't keep track of their weight. They are mainly pets and lawnmowers.

I have 10 other American Blackbellies as well, 7 ewes and 3 wethers.
