I have seven mutton wedders for sale looking for £20 each. Shetlands and one Shetland x Beltex. Aged from two to five year. Make good lawnmowers or for eating.

Hmm....I could bring the lot in my horse trailer :D  Any plans to come down to poultry sales in the North of England, Big Chicken?  Then it would be like killing two birds with one stone - not just a journey with the sheep!!

As a matter of fact I was thinking of going to York for the rare breeds sale on 24 April. Hows about that.

Well York is not far at all for me - or lets say a lot nearer than Fife :D   And I could go to the sale as well, couldn't I?

Have spent the last days thinking and discussing options and as much as we would love a couple of lawn mowers its one thing too many for my frazzled brain at the moment.  Hope you guys sort something out.

Hi Dougie,

if no one else is wanting first refusal, I'll take five of them. 

I'll PM you.

Bigchicken, if Fergie wants them, thats fair enough, as I would not be able to take all of them :)

Roxy,
I assumed you were just taking a couple of them.  Maybe I misinterpreted your message if you were thinking of more - I'll be quite happy to take the ones left over, however many that is.  I already have 44 sheep, so don't actually need them, but I've plenty space & can give them a home, and am fairly local.

Hi Fergie,  yes, I did only want two or three myself, but as Minimaran had decided not to have any at this time, I would have taken more if necessary, as bigchicken was travelling down to the poultry sale.  I am happy to have just two -but not sure how that will work transportwise for bigchicken.  That would obvously work ok for you to have your five wouldn't it!!!

Hi Roxy,

as I said earlier, I'm happy to take the remainder of the 7 sheep that Bigchicken is selling, even if that is only a couple or three.

Agree with Bigchicken on the number you want, and the transport arrangements, and I'll take the rest.  I wouldn't want to deprive anyone.

Right, I definitely only want two -if bigchicken does not want to transport just two down to the sale, that is ok by me, whichever way.  So you will get your five.  Likewise, if you wanted all 7, being closer, I would not be upset at all.
