Lot 1 - Tag: 26008
Sire: RAD (Father Figure x "Janet" Hippogriff x El Chapo)
Dam: "Donna" (Giraffe x Hot Mess)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

We start out this sale with three full-sibs to Sydney Brader’s 3rd Overall SE IA Final Drive wether last year. This guy is the thickest one in the line-up and a nice place to start!

Lot 2 - Tag: 26009
Sire: RAD (Father Figure x "Janet" Hippogriff x El Chapo)
Dam: "Donna" (Giraffe x Hot Mess)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

Although his twin took most of the milk from their recip this one still hangs with the best of them. A green one with all the right features. He doesn’t take the best picture with his open fleece but if you stopped by to see him it is easy to find the good in him!

Lot 3 - Tag: 260010
Sire: RAD (Father Figure x "Janet" Hippogriff x El Chapo)
Dam: "Donna" (Giraffe x Hot Mess)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

If you told me at two weeks old this one would be in our sale line-up I would have told you no way. His recip got sick and he and his twin looked ROUGH for quite some time. This one has just continued in a positive direction since finding feed. I debated holding this one off the sale to let him keep improving but my Dad is ready to sell these things. If this one keeps trending in the right direction like he has, it only gets better from here!

Lot 4 - Tag: 26014
Sire: RAD (Father Figure x "Janet" Hippogriff x El Chapo)
Dam: "Esme" (Mythical x Unicorn x DeJaVu)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

Super easy to appreciate this guy if you see him on the move. Has that cocky walk, huge feet and tops it off with an awesome handle!

Lot 5 - Tag: 26015
Sire: RAD (Father Figure x "Janet" Hippogriff x El Chapo)
Dam: "Esme" (Mythical x Unicorn x DeJaVu)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

This Mythical donor gave us three males with a lot of good in each one but each with their own look.
This is the big hip, expressive muscled one in the trio.

Lot 6 - Tag: 26016
Sire: RAD (Father Figure x "Janet" Hippogriff x El Chapo)
Dam: "Esme" (Mythical x Unicorn x DeJaVu)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

This one is the cool fronted, stylish one in his flush. Definitely going to have that flashy white feature and show ring presence.

Lot 7 - Tag: 26018
Sire: RAD (Father Figure x "Janet" Hippogriff x El Chapo)
Dam: "Capresha" (Unicorn x Birthday Pony)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

Full-Sib to the 4th Overall Market Lamb - 2024 IA FFA Show. He isn’t the first one to catch your eye when you walk in the pen, but neither was ‘Winston’. Don’t overlook this one!

Lot 8 - Tag: 26022
Sire: Perry (Father Figure x "Blind Betty" (Unicorn x Zoo Creature)
Dam: "Marley” (Hippogriff x Zoo Creature)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

If you went to Kirkville America to check out Middlesworth’s early December lambs I know you heard Perry x Hippo over and over. This combination works! This lamb is out of the damn to our 2025 Blue Bloods consignment purchased by the Neal Family that just won his class at San Antonio. A moderate package with a lot of goods packed in!

Lot 9 - Tag: 26025
Sire: King Kong (Mythical x Drop the Mic x Beast)
Dam: "Hollywood" (Gorilla x "Donna" (Giraffe x Hot Mess))

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

We move into four lambs out of our King Kong x Gorilla flush. This is the big bloomy single that is easy on the eyes. Big feet on this guy!

Lot 10 - Tag: 26027
Sire: King Kong (Mythical x Drop the Mic x Beast)
Dam: "Hollywood" (Gorilla x "Donna" (Giraffe x Hot Mess))

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

Ask us which one of these King Kong’s we like best and our answer changes by the day. This one has found his way to the top of the list from time to time. Each of these four offer a little different look but packed with quality.

Lot 11 - Tag: 26028
Sire: King Kong (Mythical x Drop the Mic x Beast)
Dam: "Hollywood" (Gorilla x "Donna" (Giraffe x Hot Mess))

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

The greenest and most moderate one of the King Kong’s but don’t let that fool you - he has a big hip and is shallow chested - he has a bright future ahead!

Lot 12 - Tag: 26029
Sire: King Kong (Mythical x Drop the Mic x Beast)
Dam: "Hollywood" (Gorilla x "Donna" (Giraffe x Hot Mess))

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

The fourth and final King Kong wether from this flush. Runs uphill with a nice level top and puts down some big, fuzzy feet. Not one to shy away from!

 

Lot 13 - Tag: 26031
Sire: Perry (Father Figure x "Blind Betty" (Unicorn x Zoo Creature)
Dam: "Ronnie" (Gorilla x Giraffe)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

I love looking at the front ⅓ of this sheep in his picture. If I could tuck them all up in their chest floor and have them tie into their neck and front end like this one I would. He adds to that enough power at the ground and sets down his feet nicely.

Lot 14 - Tag: 26040
Sire: Unicorn (Drop the Mic x Hot Mess)
Dam: Blue Line x Urban

DOB: Late December
Wether

This one's mother raised Karlie Einck’s Northeast Iowa Showdown Champion last year. Switched her up and bred her to Unicorn this year and it did not disappoint.

Lot 15 - Tag: 26048
Sire: Perry (Father Figure x "Blind Betty" (Unicorn x Zoo Creature)
Dam: “Stephanie” (Dark Rider x Giraffe)

DOB: Late December
Wether

Dark Rider is a Hippogriff son so really close to another Perry x Hippo so you see those bloodlines continue to pair up nicely. This guy and his brother got into separate barns since this one went to find a little more milk from a new mom. He lagged behind a little comparatively but still has the build and look that everyone falls in love with his twin.

Lot 16 - Tag: 26049
Sire: Perry (Father Figure x "Blind Betty" (Unicorn x Zoo Creature)
Dam: “Stephanie” (Dark Rider x Giraffe)

DOB: Late December
Wether

This one is a standout in his pen that is easy to find the good in. Not much needs to be said here.

Lot 17 - Tag: 26050
Sire: Unicorn (Drop the Mic x Hot Mess)
Dam: Father Figure Son

DOB: Late December
Wether

A cool, tight hided, groovy muscled blue one that packs a punch!

Lot 18 - Tag: 26061
Sire: Fire Away (RAD x Father Figure x "Bonnie")
Dam: "Tatianna" (Gorilla x "Donna" Giraffe x Hot Mess)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

This was the first one to hit the ground and raised a single so he is a big boy ready to rock. He is sired by our RAD son that we own with the Middlesworth family back on a Gorilla donor.

Lot 19 - Tag: 26069
Sire: Fire Away (RAD x Father Figure x "Bonnie")
Dam: Giraffe

DOB: Late December
Wether

This is one that you may not appreciate the good in running around the pen but when he gets stuck he offers a nice look and awesome handle. He has gotten a little smarter since picture day so his picture doesn’t serve him the best.

Lot 20 - Tag: 26161
Sire: Friendly Fire (Mythical x Popcorn)
Dam: "Tammy" (Dark Rider x 13)

DOB: Mid-December
Wether

We move into three lambs sired by Friendly Fire. We have been pleased with how this buck has done for us and we got him lined up even better this year to get his lambs a little thicker and rounder. This guy is a testament to that!

Lot 21 - Tag: 26164
Sire: Friendly Fire (Mythical x Popcorn)
Dam: Dark Rider

DOB: Late December
Wether

This guy and the next one are actually a little younger than the flush set but you can’t tell it in the pen with them. The Friendly Fire’s grow well, have big fuzzy feet and are built well on their feet and legs - he is no exception.

Lot 22 - Tag: 26165
Sire: Friendly Fire (Mythical x Popcorn)
Dam: Father Figure Son

DOB: Late December
Wether

Flip a coin between these Friendly Fire’s. They have a lot of similarities and a lot of good to offer. Take your pick Monday night!

Lot 23 - Tag: 26204
Sire: Duke (Unicorn x DeJaVu)
Dam: “Tweety” (Blue Line x Unicorn)

DOB: Early Jan
Wether

We round out the sale with the youngest in the lineup and out of all of them his pictures do him the least amount of justice. He was the last one pictured of the bunch and we may have rushed the job. He is a maternal sib to the Skinwalker sheep Claire Martin has been finding the backdrop with down south!
