Rare Breed Sheep

[Estate fencing.]

The problem with primitive/hill breeds is they’re MUCH more intelligent than your average sheep, if they don’t respect you/your dog they will literally run rings around you. But they look after themselves, and are generally very healthy and can be very cooperative as long as not left to go feral, I really like my North Ronaldsays and the crosses have proved to be fantastic sheep.

I always say my welsh ewes are all brain and no body, where my Suffolk’s are all body and no brain.

I use the term a 'scatter of shetlands' as it describes rounding them up quite well.

Heb's... the reason I hate shearing sheep for other people. My neighbour has 5. I get 5 minutes notice when she has managed to trap them and before they escape again. They usually draw blood.

They'd be easier to do if they were sheepskin rugs?
