Ia Field & Flock

Ia Field & Flock breeds Barbados blackbelly sheep in Mingo, IA, central Iowa near Des Moines. Ia Field & Flock participates in regular flock evaluations and abides by standards set by the Barbados Blackbelly Sheep Association, prioritizing health testing before breeding. Established on 50 acres of rolling pasture, the farm uses rotational grazing to promote pasture health and offers barn shelter during extreme weather.

Lambs are socialized from their first week with gentle handling and regular exposure to farm life to build trust and resilience. Its flock benefits from parasite-resistant genetics and a docile temperament that suits small-scale operations, show entries, and youth-led agriculture programs. Each sheep is tracked in a pedigree registry, and updates on breeding outcomes are available through farm newsletters and on-farm visits by appointment. The farm’s proximity to Des Moines makes weekend visits accessible for those interested in seeing the flock in person.
