Registered Shropshire Stud Rams





Sugar Ridge 20-101 Super Tramp RRNN

Sugar Ridge 20-101 Super Tramp RRNN

Sugar Ridge 20-101 Super Tramp RRNN

 Super Tramp, our top 2020 fall ram lamb has had quite a show run. In a quest to ever improve our flock, we were impressed with his massive twist & heavy bone as a little lamb & he just continued to get better with age. His 2022 lamb crop is already showing heavy muscling and great feet & legs. If you are looking to add lambs that can compete near or far, Super Tramp is your guy. 

Sugar Ridge High Voltage RRNN

Sugar Ridge 20-101 Super Tramp RRNN

Sugar Ridge 20-101 Super Tramp RRNN

High Voltage, pictured above as a  super growthy spring ram lamb, is the product of breeding some of our very oldest Poker Joe ewe lines back with Super Mario lines.  We anticipate he will work well to add a bit of size & "fancy" to our more heavily muscled ewes. High Voltage was bred to a select group of ewes for 2022 lambs. We are excited to see how they grow!


Sugar Ridge Fancy Pants RRNN

Sugar Ridge Fancy Pants RRNN

Sugar Ridge Fancy Pants RRNN

 Fancy Pants is exactly what his name says. He struts around like he's wearing his fancy pants every day! Extended, shaggy and upheaded. What's not to love?  Watch for his lambs in 2022!

Sugar Ridge Easy Money RRNN

Sugar Ridge Fancy Pants RRNN

Sugar Ridge Fancy Pants RRNN

Easy Money sired by Sugar Ridge Heat Wave (Reference Sire pictured below). This guy was the pick of Heat Wave's final lamb crop.   Heat Wave was consistent in producing high quality show lambs, and we expect the same from Easy Money.  Easy Money was bred to a select group of ewes due to lamb in 2022. 


Sugar Ridge Newsworthy RRNN

Sugar Ridge Candy Crush RRNN

Sugar Ridge Candy Crush RRNN

Added to our ram lineup in 2019: Grand Champion Ram, 1st place Fall Ram Lamb at 2019 Kentucky State Fair. We love the breed type and muscling this ram has. Newsworthy did not disappoint & sired several of our lambs in our 2020 show string. 

Sugar Ridge Candy Crush RRNN

Sugar Ridge Candy Crush RRNN

Sugar Ridge Candy Crush RRNN

Candy Crush has had a great 2019 show season - 2nd place January ram lamb at the All American, 2nd Place Indiana State Fair, 1st Place KY state fair. We only bred a handful of ewe to him last year, but his 2020 lambs were loaded with breed type, eye appeal & show ring quality. Watch for more of the same in 2022!


Sugar Ridge Jawbreaker RRNN - Sold- Thank you Rossi Family, Minnesota

Jawbreaker brings beautiful breed type to the table - short ears, correct head color and shape; leg, head and face wool galore. In addition to all the "pretty" he stands on a great set of feet and legs and has super hip and flank shape.  


Sugar Ridge King Tut RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Poker Joe RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Poker Joe RRNN

King Tut added tremendous bone and mass to our lambs when we used him as a lamb to breed a small group of ewes. He really grew into himself as a yearling, (pictured above). King Tut has been a proven stud for us year after year.  Watch for King Tut lambs in 2022!

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Poker Joe RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Poker Joe RRNN

Poker Joe, what a stud! The power and twist that this ram throws into his lambs is amazing. We have retained several of his daughters over the years. He's not a spring chicken anymore but he still gave us a great set of lambs in 2020. As of 2022, Pokie is still hanging around here, but spends his time in with the lambs now. His arthritic old bones, won't let him breed anymore, but he enjoys laying in the sunshine & napping. His final days will be lived out here. 

Sugar Ridge Huckleberry RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Poker Joe RRNN

Refernce Sire - Sugar Ridge Heat Wave RRNN

Huckleberry made his debut in our 2018 Shropshire show string and did not disappoint. We love his clean front, nice long neck and super top line. He was bred to a select group for 2019 spring lambs. We were so pleased with his lambs, we used him again for fall 2019.  Huckleberry sired a select group of lambs for the 2022 crop.

Refernce Sire - Sugar Ridge Heat Wave RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Super Mario RRNN

Refernce Sire - Sugar Ridge Heat Wave RRNN

Heat Wave really turned it up for us! He added the hip we needed to add to some of our older ewes, without losing the "pretty" or sacrificing too much size. Heat Wave is still in service here and was used for a good percentage of our Shropshire flock's breeding in 2018.

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Super Mario RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Super Mario RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Super Mario RRNN

Mario Time! Mario truly left his mark on our flock, hands down, unmatched. Bone, twist, wool and top! This good old guy is now retired. He will live out the last of his days enjoying the good life here. The majority of our current ewe base is sired or grand sired by this great buck. He still settled a handful of ewes in 2017 for us. Those daughters remain in our Shropshire flock.

Reference Sire - Avery's Octane RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Super Mario RRNN

Reference Sire - Sugar Ridge Super Mario RRNN

A huge Thank You to Dennis Avery for making WI State Fair Grand Champion Ram "Avery's Octane" available to us. Octane brought beautiful breed type and power to our ewe base.  His genetics carry on in our Shropshire flock.
