Valais Iowa’s GOAL is to BREED, RAISE, AND SHOW ELITE VALAIS BLACKNOSE SHEEP, adhering to the SWISS breed standard.
The genetics we have chosen are from leading breeders. Our lambs are from carefully selected matings with different sires and exceptional pedigrees loaded with maximum points genetics.
As an early US breeder of Valais Blacknose, we have built and retained a flock of ~20 elite and high-quality ewes as our foundation flock. For this reason, we can now make more high-quality lambs available for sale to you.
To purchase upcoming lambs, call Scott at 515-509-4333.
Valais Iowa offers FROZEN SEMEN from our purebred rams. Our elite rams’ frozen semen is available for purchase for AI (artificial inseminaton) or IVF (in vitro fertilization). Frozen semen can be purchased online or by calling Scott at 515-509-4333. See photos, details and pedigrees of the rams we are currently offering.
For our customers, we also offer BREEDING SERVICES to our purebred rams. We will give the ewe owner an easy-to-follow protocol for breeding preparation, to complete prior to the ewe’s arrival. Ewes must be in good health with up-to-date vaccinations, and shorn ~60 days before arrival. We expect the ewes to stay 30-60 days and we guarantee a confirmed pregnancy prior to pick-up. Breeding Services can be scheduled by emailing or calling Scott at 515-509-4333. Complete the Breeding Services Contract.
