Prized ram flies Oregon to Wisconsin in blizzard trauma

A 300-pound registered Shropshire ram shipped from Oregon faced a 24 hour layover at O’Hare during a mid April Wisconsin blizzard. Tom Goerke and Jim Kipp, UW River Falls and Loyal breeders, paid about 450 for the trip. The ram, once in the crate, settled, weighing over 300 pounds, and joins a growing show flock while shifting toward breeding.
