Daigle Ridge Sheep Shearing

Happy New Year to all of our clients!

2025 was wonderful. I was able to add several new clients and the weather cooperated to get everyone sheared in a timely fashion. I did have a few that had to be pushed into mid summer but those just found our services late into the season.
I will again cover the same area. South Louisiana and most of Mississippi. From Lake Charles and Deridder, La across to Wiggins and Hattisburg, Ms as far north as Oxford and Batesville,Ms.
It’s a large area but I hope for good weather, a strong back and clean shearing sheep.
Please feel free to comment or inquire about service and pricing.
I will not begin scheduling until late February and hope to start shearing early March.

Scheduling has begun for the 2025 season. I hope to again cover most of Louisiana and Mississippi.

This season will begin my 30th year shearing. Last year my son and I combined to shear sheep in the Deep South and a small handful of camelids. We shear for small hobby farms, large club lamb operations, university’s and even a Zoo. Never would I have imagined to not only still be shearing but there be such a demand for this craft!

With that I’m doing something a little different and posting publicly my rates.
