Better using a Welsh mountain for that job if you don’t want mules… with the added bonus of keeping 4x as many as most of them will be grazing your neighbours…There are Swales and Swales sold plenty of full mouthed 6 crop ewes for breeding. With regards milkyness they seem to do lambs well there are always exceptions but I find having smaller ewes(ours tend to be around 50kg mark) they are more efficient. Can keep more to the acre and rear there own body weight easily when inbye on grass. They can far exceed it when put to large crossing breeds and on inbye grass. Very efficient sheep that easy to lamb and that can be cheap to buy and produce a premium lamb as well with the right tup.
