RFK 2007098 “Mia”
katahdinsforsale2019-01-19T18:04:59-05:00RFK 2007098 “Mia” Arguably the hardest working ewe to date at Waldoview Farm, Mia was often referred to as “the little ewe that could” in reference to the children’s story about the train engine that climbed the mountain.

She really didn’t hit her productive stride until age 6 when she began a succession of triplet births. Her triplets were especially large, about 11 lbs on average, and importantly, they were uniform [...]
