Agnes
Foundation ewe in the Monterey Valais breeding program.
The Flock
Fourteen sheep. One Salinas flock.
These are the fourteen sheep that make up Monterey Valais. We brought this 100% purebred foundation flock together carefully and made a home for them in Salinas. Some are here to raise the next generation; others are companions. We list the paperwork exactly as it stands, even when a transfer is still in progress.

A note about the paperwork
The records stay with the sheep.
- · Already issued: MegaMan is VBSS#006526 and Murci is VBSS#006530.
- · Still in progress: A few younger sheep are waiting on transfer paperwork. We call it pending until it is finished.
- · Identification: The flock uses AR001020 / AR1020 identifiers, and the right movement paperwork goes with any sheep that travels.
- · Genotype results: When an animal has a result on file, we share it privately with a qualified buyer. We never fill in a blank just to make a page look complete.
