This is what they graze mostly as up until this year we only had this field that was livestock proof.
I’ve a few contacts and might be able to get some for not silly prices.
I keep getting differing views on keeping wethers.
Op 1:great lawnmowers…sell them when you’re done.
Op2: make the flock fussy, pain to manage.
Currently got 3 and would get more as not looking to increase my ewe numbers massively. Do people keep minimal numbers and Mart the rest?
