Hi
First time poster - be nice!
I've got a small paddock - 0.25 acre - that is too much (and too awkward) to mow, and we don't have anything like a topper... My wife and I are thinking of getting a couple of lambs each year, getting them to do the hard work, and having them slaughtered in the autumn so that (a) we don't have to overwinter them, (b) we don't get embroiled in long-term-sheep-keeping issues, and (c) we can fill up the freezer.
Does this sound like a realistic prospect? The paddock is already fenced. I am, of course, aware about the need to register CPH etc etc... If so, what breeds would anyone recommend (main criteria are good grass-cutters, manageable temperament, tasty)?
Thanks in advance,
- Tim
