Sometime after 1540 when Coronado brought many sheep to what is now New Mexico. Or after 1598 when Juan de Onate brought 3,600. They probably got those through treading, raids and wandering or abandoned sheep. They probably got a lot more in the aftermath of the Pueblo Revolt in 1680 when the Spanish were forced out and left behind all their livestock.
