[QUOTE="Nithsdale, post: 6117414, member: 17508"] Before I stopped lambing the ewe hoggs (was lambing 150 of them each year at the end) I had tried various breeds... a Lleyn tup beats them all for me. The hoggs were pure Lleyn. I also convinced a good friend to move from using a Charollais to Lleyn. First lambing he did he said he wished he had switched years ago. Only ones I had to help were the monster singles if I'd been too kind to them that last couple weeks before lambing - and that was my fault, not the sheep. Agree with others - far too much variation within the Lleyn breed (because of the rapid growth in popularity of the breed they were bred up from anything and everything!). Same with [I][B][U]EVERY[/U][/B][/I] breed - you've got to buy the right type. [/QUOTE]
