The Abacus Shetland Flock

Our mission

 

Our mission is to breed the best quality spotty Shetland sheep in Great Britain outside of Shetland. That is flecket, ilget, yuglet, the Shetland description for this marking. We also have horned ewes, very rare in Great Britain, outside of Shetland. Friendly, calm temperament is another feature we focus on.

The flock here at Abacus Acres are founded on Shetland sheep that were brought down from Shetland. They were inspected before they could be registered and entered into the Shetland Sheep Society flock book.

 
 

Lambs for sale - available around August every year. Ewe lambs and tups for breeding, wethers (castrated males) for pets, grazers and conservation grazing. Occasionally ewes for sale for breeding or barren as pets, grazers.
