Title: Pet home/farm wanted.
Post by: dixie on April 19, 2011, 08:28:34 am

Hi I have a very small (castrated) ram lamb born last May. He is a jacob cross is all black with horns, a very pretty lamb that just didn't grow so was left to run with the ewes. It seems a shame to eat him as he is quite tame and really not big enough to eat so thought he would make a nice sheep for a pet farm or similar. I will try and put a picture up if I can remember how to! Although I can email pics if anyone is interested. We are near Maldon/Chelmsford, Essex, 07834 030560 thanks.
