Without knowing his parents, we can't know if he is a Barbados
Blackbelly or an American Blackbelly. He is probably a cross-bred.
The blackbelly color trait is very strong and can express even when a
blackbelly is bred to a white sheep, such as a Katahdin or St. Croix.
But as I stated before,

the "Barbados" as people call them here in California, are fairly plentiful as
weed control and in my neighborhood of 1-10 acre semi-rural plots, there a few
to a small flock on every street. i usually don't pay more than $80 for a fully
grown animal, since there's no papers and/or control over
Yes, I think you're right. But $200 for a ram isn't bad, even if he's

and American blackbelly.
