Van RoeKel Family

Van RoeKel Family is a Tunis sheep breeder in Wellman, IA, serving Washington County and the Iowa City area. Its farm has welcomed Tunis sheep for over a decade, and it holds membership in the American Tunis Sheep Breeders Association, following recommended health screenings for parasite resistance and foot health.

Lambs are born in a climate-controlled barn with attentive care and are introduced to rotational pasture grazing within days, promoting strong structure and digestive resilience. Daily handling from birth encourages a calm disposition, and its pasture-based system supports natural foraging behaviors and social bonds among the flock.

Owner Marty Van Roekel places emphasis on temperament and structural soundness, selecting breeding stock from lines known for ease of lambing and robust growth rates. One nearby farmer observed that these Tunis lambs adapt quickly to new pastures and blend well into small-scale flock setups.
