Visit Our Flock

 

 

 

 

 

My name is Isaac. I'd like to introduce you to my flock.

 

Our shepherd's name is Mickey. She is a fiber artist and uses our wool to make hand-felted hats. Her hats have spots -- like us! Mickey makes baseball caps, fedoras, ladies' hats and cowboy hats. Her business is called Spotted Fever.

We (see our pictures) belong to an ancient breed called Jacob Sheep. We have a polycerate gene which means we have multiple horns. We have as few as two and as many as six. Most of use have either two or four horns. Both Rams and Ewes have horns.

We originated in the Middle East over 3,000 years ago. Our fleeces are piebald - white with dark spots. We are very handsome! We produce a medium wool that is great for hand-spinning, weaving, and felting.

Each of us has spots that vary in color from greys to browns to black. That's what makes Mickey's hats so interesting. Each one is unique in color and pattern.

Each hat bears the name of the sheep who supplied the wool. It even has our picture!

Ball caps have adjustable straps.
One size fits all.

Fedoras and ladies' hats have grosgrain hatbands, flexible brims, buckles and bows.

Cowboy hats feature conchas,
stampede strings
and flexible brims that can be styled anyway you please.
