Romney Pelts
(After all, they can't ALL be breeders!)

This page last updated December 5, 2009
When we do decide to cull our lambs, we try to make the most of this unfortunate reality. The meat is, naturally, the most immediate and delicious product of these decisions, but the pelt provides a more long term return. All of our pelts are from unshorn lambs with 3"- 4" of fleece, tanned washable by Bucks County Fur Products in Quakertown, PA. They have not been hot-combed, so the Romney crimp, lock and luster is preserved. They make the best and most unique baby shower gifts ever -- babies just love them! Other uses include car seat covers, wheelchair seat covers, throws for sofas and chairs, wall hangings or other display uses, and more. Some even purchase them to cut up and use to make doll hair or Santa beards. All processed pelts are stored in a smoke-free household. Any flaws are noted and pictured. Holes are 1" or less (butcher cuts) and are not visible from the top. Measurements provided are the longest and widest dimensions of the pelt. Shipping and insurance (via USPS Priority) is extra. Laundering instructions are provided. We currently are just one small but very soft lamb pelt, perfect for a baby's crib - $60. We have four larger pelts in for processing (2 white, two black) - they should be ready around the end of February. They will likely range in price from $90 to $125. Photos will be available. The photo above is representative of a typical Pitchfork pelt.
