There the ones.White faced Welsh Mules. Go for ones out of smaller, hardier Welsh ewes with less Cheviot in them.

Norfolk Horn bred originally on East Anglian heathland, I think?
I agree with this. You are better having 2 Welshies at 1.2 lambs than you are with a mule at 1.9 lambs. The welsh ewe will thrive on poor land and the mules with waste away. Mules are born hungry and need good lowland ground.Sorry but if your Welshies aren’t producing the numbers it’s for good reason. Either disease/parasites, stocking density or feed availability they are the most honest little sheep I have ever known and if it weren’t for the jumping ability I would have nothing else. You can run two welsh mountain for every 1 north country mule too so lambs can be got that way.

The BFL is the Ferrari of the sheep world. Fantastic performance if you have a good driver.
Expensive to keep & breaks down in real life.
Generally last at least four tupping seasons here I wouldn't call that sheep that "break down." Senior tup that was here last did five seasons and the record breaker from the past did at least six.Expensive to keep & breaks down in real life.
