Bonnie

Bonnie is a Katahdin sheep. Katahdin sheep are a type of hair sheep domestic to the United States. These sheep shed their coats and never have to be sheared.

Bonnie was born March 21, 2022, on a sheep farm in Virginia. She and Clyde were both rejected by their mothers. This required the two lambs to be bottle fed, which calls for a lot of extra work from a farmer. A nice lady agreed to keep them alive until someone would rescue the babies. NarroWay heard about them and was quick to step in.

Bonnie and Clyde came to their NarroWay home on April 30, 2022. At barely one month old, they were bottle fed 5 times a day until they were gradually weaned.

Raised together from birth, Bonnie and Clyde share a stall and are most often seen with each other in the field. They have a fickle friendship with the goats, especially Pepe and Blanche. They all squabble among themselves unless another member of the herd gets involved. Then they band together.

Bonnie and Clyde are terribly co-dependent on one another. They can never be separated on stage so their handlers must remember not to walk in different directions. Bonnie is more gentle than Clyde and though they aren’t large animals, they can pull a strong teenager across the stage like a kite if they think food is waiting.

Bonnie has a solid white coat that is very soft to touch. She is friendly and energetic. She and Clyde are always ready to meet new friends!

Bonnie is in all the biblical shows at NarroWay. She and the entire flock help create authentic biblical scenes on stage and are featured in “Jesus, the Teacher” and “The Real Christmas Story.”
