[QUOTE="Guiggs, post: 3260874, member: 5251"] I'd be worried about them inheriting his poor fertility issues, if indeed that is his issue, also the fact that he was sold by his previous owner for some reason, was that because he didn't do the job for them? Poor performance from the lambs he left? He also has this issue with cudding, could that be inherited? I know it's a tough choice with small flock numbers and it stings losing animals and you want to keep as many females as possible but it's also the best way of starting your flock with the highest quality breeding stock as you can by not taking a chance with second rate animals..I have learnt it takes more time and money wheedling out the crap than it does to get rid and only keep the best!
