At Iron Maple Farm, our Gotland rams are selected for structure, temperament, and fleece quality. Each ram in our breeding program represents the best of the breed — combining quality genetics with strong conformation and consistent silver-gray or black fleece.
We use our rams to strengthen breed characteristics, improve fleece quality, and ensure calm, productive animals for future generations.
Our Breeding Goals:
Our breeding program is focused on producing:
- Fine, uniform fleece with a soft hand and beautiful luster
- Rams with balanced structure, correct feet and legs, and sound movement
- Calm, confident temperaments that are easy to manage
- Quality genetics to support a sustainable Canadian Gotland Sheep population
All our rams are healthy, pasture-raised, and handled regularly for cooperative behavior.
