Slack 8222 "Dreadnought" is a prepotent sire, stamping his virtures - muscle, bone, square hips, and clean fleeces - on lambs from a wide variety of ewes. Very square on his corners, he is extremely wide and thick in his hindquarters while maintaining extension through the neck and front end.

8300 is an extremely well-balanced ram, combining thickness, structure, and profile.  Very neat and clean through the chest floor while deep in his rear flank, he is square in his rack and thick through the leg and stifle. He has sired these traits on in his offspring.

Baglien 9566 is extremely long and balanced in profile, with great bone.  He has exceptional breed character -- very pink-skinned, and carrying a beautiful fleece (when was the last time anyone talked about fleece quality on a Suffolk?  I can't remember, either!). leased to Kimm Suffolks for the 2012 lamb crop.

With 9566 'Wales' at Kimm Suffolks this year, we kept two outstanding Wales sons. The December ram lamb, Baglien 11465, is out of the twin sister to Kimm 2048 'Cael', a ram that sired several carcass champions at the National Lamb Show. With outstanding thickness, length, and bone, 11465's virtues mirror those of his grandsire, 'Dreadnought'. We are using him on a large number of mature ewes, and a select group of 2011 replacements.

The February ram lamb, Baglien 11474, is a pretty-patterned, clean-fronted, long-bodied ram who is correct in his hip design and stands square on his corners. We are using him on most of our 2011 replacements.

(* The maternal great-grandsire of 11474, Shell 355, is known to have a bogus pedigree. Although 11474 carries a 'white' (i.e., purebred) registration paper, according to his true pedigree he's a 7/8 blood. However, bred to our fullblood ewes, his lambs will be 15/16 and therefore legitimately considered purebred according to the standards of the United Suffolk Sheep Association.)
