Great American Lone Star Ranch

Great American Lone Star Ranch raises Shetland sheep in Stephenville, TX, in Erath County near Fort Worth. Emilie Owen’s operation adheres to recognized association standards and includes routine veterinary health checks for every lamb. Records are kept for each animal’s lineage, ensuring clear documentation of breeding history and traits. Flock management blends pasture-based grazing with sheltered barns, giving the animals space to roam by day and a clean, secure place to rest at night.

Daily handling helps maintain a calm temperament, and lambs are socialized early to support gentle behavior. Local families often comment on the animals’ friendly nature during visits, reflecting the ranch’s long-standing commitment to animal welfare. This focus on well-being and temperament has earned praise from neighbors across north-central Texas. Fleeces are prepared on site and sorted by grade, suitable for home spinners and small-scale fiber projects.
