Meet the Minds Behind VBN USA.
Valais Blacknose Sheep USA is among the first to import purebred embryos into North America. The subsequent embryo transfer resulted in the largest crop of purebred Valais Blacknose lambs in the country in 2021. This work continues with the largest purebred embryo implantation program in North America which took place in the fall of 2021. Spring 2022 has been exciting as more lambs have made their debut, doubling the numbers at Valais Blacknose Sheep USA!
