The Boys!
Owing to our set-up, we only keep a small number of males.
​
We purchased Rigg Apache from Moira Morrison and John Bogue in 2016, and he has given us such a very positive start to owning a ram. His kindly, easy nature made him extremely easy to deal with - one of the many great attributes he passed on to his offspring! Sadly we lost Apache in Autumn 2020 however he will never be forgotten and his positive influence through the flock will continue through his many descendants for years to come.
​
Muncaster Felix joined Annavale in 2019. He was spotted in his pen at the Carlisle sale early in the day, and ended up coming home to Annavale that evening ... he clearly caught the judges eye too, as he ended up Champion on the day!
​
Moira & John very kindly allowed us to borrow Rigg Gilfrid in 2020. This ram was uniquely bred and we were allowed to use him on a small number of ewes. He too had a positive influence on the flock and we have retained nearly all of his daughters.
​
We look forward to welcoming a new ram to Annavale in 2023, and look forward to seeing how we can develop our coloured breeding program too.

Apache is our wonderful senior ram, who not only produced the goods but taught us so much about this wonderful breed. He produced superbly for us here at Annavale, whilst always being a gentleman to deal with.
SSS Approved Ram.

Felix added a different element to the flock and his first lambs hit the ground in Spring 2020 - a promising bunch indeed! He was used for crossing with more commercial types with huge success, passing on his strong wide frame and excellent depth.
SSS Approved Ram.
Felix was sold in 2021 as he had been used extensively throughout the Annavale flock.
