Title: Ryelands wanted West Yorkshire
Post by: Bullseye on April 13, 2012, 09:45:02 am

Still looking for Ryeland sheep to join us in Halifax, registered stock preferred but not essential. Having exhausted the list of breeders on the flock book website I'm finding they're like gold dust! Any help welcome, would love coloureds but not fussy. Looking for around 3 ewes  :sheep:

Bullseye, how far are you prepared to travel?

This is a tricky time of year to source sheep - you may find it better to wait until later in the season when breeders will have sorted out what they have to sell and which animals they want to keep.

Willing to travel up to around 100 miles, thanks for your advice  :)

Hi
We are in Kelbrook, Lancashire approx 30 miles from Halifax. We have a pedigree Ryeland flock (all registered) and  are currently changing our breeding stock. We have currently ewes with lambs at foot who will be ready to be separated next month, also 3 gimmers and a ewe lamb. Please get in touch if your interested.
