Title: SHEARING
Post by: bocky on March 17, 2014, 10:21:12 am

I hope everyone has had, or is having a trouble free lambing, but shearing season will soon be here again :sunshine:

I'm a shearer based in the Vale of Glamorgan who shears the small flocks the big contractors don't really want.
I will travel to you and set up my own gear and patiently shear your sheep.
No flock is too small or too big and nowhere is too far.

I am also available for crutching, foot trimming and grinding combs and cutters.

Contact Andrew on 07980 159593

I will PM all enquiries

Hi Andrew, I have a very small flock of 4 (although I'll probably keep some of this years' lambs so will have more next year!). Could you let me know your charges etc for coming up to shear them? I'm just outside Shrewsbury, in Shropshire

Hi Kelly 58

Id love to come up to Caithness, but with a 1400 mile round trip I'd fear that they would be the dearest sheep that have ever been shorn.

Regards

Andrew

Hi

I have 6 shetlands that need sheering in Gloucestershire. About 15 mins from the M50. They have sharted shedding so are looking pretty scruffy. Could you give me a rough cost

Kind Regards

Emily
