Two years ago I took over a 44h permanent pasture farm in Devon. Because of other commitments I have let the grazing for the past 2 years. I am now in a position to focus on the farm and want to start my own flock. I have a great deal of "book" knowledge having read widely on the subject, and a little practical experience. I already have my SBI and CPH numbers. My questions are: A. What would be the best breed for me to buy initially, baring in mind I intend to sell to the end users as prepared meat. I already have access to this market.
B. I'm planning on starting small with 20 ewes, giving that I will be doing this full time what would be the max number I could grow the flock too.
Thanks
