clydesdaleclopper - I might be interested. I am looking to raise a few for meat and nice sheepskins. Yours sound like they would have good fleeces. I am just outside Aberdeen, near Westhill. I haven't got any fences yet, so would need to get going with that in the first instance but August would give me time. I haven't kept sheep before so would try and find a course or a mentor too. Will they need to be indoors in winter months?
