Red Barn Katahdin Farms
Red Barn Katahdin Farms raises Katahdin sheep in Manly, IA in north central Iowa near Mason City. Steven Bull and Melissa Bull follow established breed guidelines and participate in regional sheep associations while ensuring routine health screening for foot rot and other common conditions. Their flock grazes on rotational pastures and receives daily handling, which encourages calm temperaments and supports strong maternal instincts.
They emphasize sustainable practices, using mobile fencing to evenly distribute grazing pressure and improve pasture health over the seasons. Lambs spend winter months in well-ventilated barns and enjoy open pasture as weather allows, promoting healthy growth and sturdy leg structure.
Local farmers appreciate the Bulls’ clear communication about flock management and the consistency of their lambing results year after year. Occasional participation in county fairs offers feedback on wool quality and confirmation of conformation standards.
