Hi There,
Im Kevin and have a small 5 acre piece of land at Memsie near Fraserburgh,
I have a small flock of Wiltshire Horn sheep which are all registered and pure breds,
Also have a few hens ducks (keeps the wife happy) ,
I chose the wiltshires as they shed there own wool so no need to shear also a nice looking breed,
Anyway dont want to bore everybody,
Get in touch for a chat,
Thanks,
Kev

Aberdeenshire, right on the north east coast, major fishing port. :)

Hi Kevin and welcome to TAS - hope you enjoy it  :wave:

You might not have picked it up yet, if you are a newbie, but we're organising the very first Scottish Smallholder and Grower Festival at Forfar Market on 30th September www.scottishsmallholdershow.co.uk (http://www.scottishsmallholdershow.co.uk) - we have sowing classes for sheep specially set up for breeds like the Wiltshire Horn. It would be great if you could enter some - we'd love to see them! Schedule and entry form is on the Festival wesite and closing date for entries is 7th September.
