Title: The problem with small ewes is ............

That their lambs take longer to mature for meat.  This means you need to feed them over the winter whilst keeping them well away from the tup.  I have the answer - for sale - texel/beltex cross tup lambs (£100).  This combination means that your lambs will put on plenty of weight over the summer, be double muscled on the rear legs (big legs of lamb a favourite with butchers), and be ready for slaughter by the time that the grass runs out (in my opinion grass fed lamb tastes better).
