you have sheep as pets, fab. We were thinking of getting a lamb (i knw they grom into sheep) but then worried about the dipping drenching and shearing, so decided that they were pobably a little too complicated for us, plus i would be worried about them escaping into a nearby flock and ending up with a side dish of mince sauce! do they come to you for a scratch?

Also remember the first sign of illness is sheep is Death!

We kept some down by a river so they were ready minted and tasted delicious. I would never hold them as lambs as I knew they were going to be eaten. Our horses used to try and stomp on them if they got in the way or were in the wrong place. When we first got them didn't realise one had flystrike. That's not for the squeamish. Oh the tales you can tell about sheep.

fly strike, thats going to involve maggots isnt it. I think that the fields that we have would benefit from being grazed but i think that I am going to have to ponder for a while longer and look into it a bit more. What i will do is ask the farmer next door what he does with his orphans and maybe next year after thinking a bit more have one.

(who am i trying to kid, i have already thought of its name Tuffty, and i am also trying to talk Mr Spudley into letting me have a goat too, that i shall call Boo ((Short for Boudica)) or another dog if I cant have a goat that I will call Boo instead. I think that he will probably go for the lesser of the 2 evils and have a pup.....

Goats don't make very good lawn-mowers.
Hedge trimmers, maybe.

Do you have enough land that the farmer might want to put something on it now and then? Or cut some silage, while doing his own?
