WHY OUR WAITLIST IS DIFFERENT

Why Join Our Waitlist?

We don't launch a waitlist lightly. We've been breeding fullblood Valais Blacknose sheep since 2022, and every lamb crop to date has completely sold out.

As demand for our fullblood valais grows, we're learning a waitlist is necessary so we keep the process fair and direct for everyone, no favorites, no guesswork.

 

Timeline & Pricing

Lambs are typically born Feb thru May. We evaluate overall health before we begin matching waitlist members to available lambs. Pricing generally runs [$5,000 - $25,000], depending on sex, bloodline, structure, wool and markings. Breeding stock and pet-quality lambs are priced differently. All of our sheep are registered. We're happy to talk specifics once we know what you're looking for.

 

Being on the waitlist doesn't guarantee a lamb.

No Deposits, Ever

We don't accept deposits or reserve sheep before they're born. Breeding livestock involves too many variables, and in good conscience, we won't accept payment for a lamb that's not yet on the ground.

Instead of holding your money, we hold ourselves accountable to clear, direct communication.

 

D​irect Access Before the General Public

We contact waitlist members individually via phone or email before making any announcements.

You receive updates on new births and available lambs before anything is posted to social media or sent in a general newsletter. We work with you one-on-one to match the right sheep to your specific goals.

How the Waitlist Works

Inquiries are logged in the order they are received. To ensure we connect serious buyers with the right lambs, priority contact is given to those who provide complete information.

What Makes A Serious Inquiry

  • Clear Goals: You let us know what you're looking for (e.g., specific traits, flock additions, or breeding goals).

  • Alignment on Timeframe & Pricing: You've reviewed our general timeline and pricing structure and are ready to move forward when lambs arrive.

  • Active Communication: You respond promptly when we reach out with availability.

Explore the Breed First

Before reaching out, take some time with the rest of our site and explore other breeders. Our Breed Standard page covers what makes a quality Valais Blacknose, Our Flock walks through the bloodlines behind our program, and our Guides cover what it actually takes to raise this breed well. The more informed you are going in, the better we can match you with the right sheep for your goals.

Join the List

No deposits, no spam, just a direct line to us when lambs are ready.
