Bluefaced Leicester Sheep

We breed and sell registered Bluefaced Leicester (BFL) wool sheep and lambs and are located northeast of Denver, Colorado. We are selectively breeding for high-quality, soft, fine fiber with long staple length. We aim for fleece that are soft enough to be made into clothing items that will be up against the skin. We are also selecting to keep the traditional attributes of the BFL, and good conformation in healthy, hardy sheep. We have both white, and naturally colored BFLs. Our BFLs twin and triplet. The mother’s are good at lambing and bond well with their lambs and mother well. To learn more about the BFL breed, go to the BFL Sheep Registry.

We also breed and sell landrace wool sheep. Some of our favorite wool that comes from our farm comes from the BFL/Finewool cross-breed sheep. In the cross breedings we are selecting for softer fleece with a longer staple length. The wool is the main focus of these breedings. The cross breeds can include BFL, Australian Bond, CVM, Merino, and milk sheep breeds.

We seasonally have adults and lambs available for sale.  See below for details of what we have available at this time.  We suggest contacting us ahead of time to be put on the wait list as they tend to sell fast and sometimes don’t even make it to this page. Contact us at willowcreekfarm12@gmail.com if you have questions or are interested in buying some of our stock.

Fiona – $500

Fiona was born on our farm spring of 2023. She is a registered, purebred white BFL yearling ewe. She was a triplet born to our ewe Bunny by our ram Wallace. She has a super-fine BFL fleece that is oh-so-soft and was noticeably softer than the rest of the lambs that season. We kept her with plans to breed her in the future, but as our plans shift and change and we need to cut back the flock, we have decided to sell her. She has not be bred yet and is available to go home immediately.

Kendra – $450

Kendra is a registered, purebred BFL ewe lamb that was born as a twin on 3/23/24 to Agnes by Wallace. She has nice conformation and her fleece is looking to be a beautiful, fine, fleece with BFL qualities just like her parents. She is available to go home at weaning (3 months old) at the end of June.

Ailsa – $400

Ailsa is a registered, purebred white BFL ewe lamb born 4/6/24. She was born a twin to Bunny by Wallace. Ailsa has beautiful conformation and a very promising, fine, quality BFL fleece. The coloring on her head and ears is not solid, dark skin as is preferred for a BFL, thus her price being slightly lower. She is able to go home at weaning (3 months old) at the end of June or first week of July.
