Can anyone recommend some good Katahdin breeders in the north East ? Would like to get some Show quality Ewes at some point and I don't even know where to start looking.

I don't personally know any but I'm guessing you looked at the KHSI website?
Everyone that I know is in the south.

Do you use Facebook? There are some decent forums with a good mix of people - Katahdin Sheep Breeders is one and Katahdin Sheep Producers is another. What I would do is browse those for a bit and it's pretty easy to see who are the good guys and you can check them out without really contacting them. I have one contact that is one of the bigger breeders that I know and will see if he knows anyone in your area. It would cost more but a lot of the breeders ship their animals.
We network a couple of Associations and it seems those that have been doing it quite awhile know folks from all over.

Im not opposed to shipping depending on cost, I know in the horse world shipping can get a bit crazy. I know there is one breeder near me that shows and I have seen them do quite well at the shows, but I would like to look at others as well. Im just trying to put together a good group of quality Ewes together , its hard when your not super familiar with the industry. Thanks for the help ! much appreciated
