| Welcome
to PTB Katahdins, owned and operated by Pat and Tina Broussard.
We are breeders of registered Katahdin Hair Sheep and our farm
produces superior genetic breeding stock for registered breeders and
replacement seed stock for commercial operations. We breed and
select for meat, large bones, fast growth rate, abundance of muscle,
milk and hair coat. Our program focuses on continuing genetic
improvement of the Katahdin sheep breed. Our breeding sires include 3 out cross ram blood lines. They are white with A or AA coats, polled, and Codon 171 genotype RR. Breeding ewes are also white with A or AA coats. We currently maintain two separate flocks, one which is USDA certified scrapie free. The non-certified flock has been enrolled in the Voluntary Scrapie Flock Certification Program since May, 2008. Our ewes "pasture lamb" from January through early March. We record birth weights, 60-day and 120-day weights. Lambs are weaned at 60 days, and are available for purchase after four months of age, usually beginning in May. All vaccinations are given and health records are available. We are members of Katahdin Hair Sheep International (KHSI) and the Southcentral Katahdin Hair Sheep Association (SCKA).
