Title: Ram swop anyone??
Post by: gapcap on September 16, 2011, 04:32:46 pm
[](http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv94/gapcap/IMAG0055.jpg) I'm hoping someone might like a swop,This is "Jackson", born 15 April this year,as most of my ewes are texel/texel x, therefore white,I was hoping to swop him for a white ram,he would need to be a fairly biggish type as they are "large" ladies!! He is well grown fit and healthy,heptavac'd and wormed,will follow a bucket,and would be up for some "work" this year. ;) We are in Herefordshire,willing to travel to surrounding counties (within reason)Any ideas or offers most welcome. Thanks

Try a Ryeland, I have a texel cross ewe and she is covered by a ryeland the lambs are strong and fast growing and the meat is lovely.

I have an unregistered ryeland shearling ram available
