[QUOTE="JockCroft, post: 8073537, member: 166068"] Never say never. I'm on 5th lambing after 25 years break without sheep. (Because of employment requirement). Pensioner now. Started of with a small number 5 years ago. Right mixture of ewes, some good, some bad and some terrible. Mastitis not been biggest problem. Just starting lambing 140, mainly NCC and Texel crosses of them, aiming to be a closed flock from now on. Question about Romney, have they got much smaller in recent years. Had one in early 70's, was a big framed very well fleshed with lambs having a better "get up and go" than the Cheviots. Think he was over 200kg when sold at 6 years. Would like to try one again for better selling weights of smaller ewes. [/QUOTE]
