Title: Castlemilk Moorit wethers etc. Sheffield
Post by: Fieldfare on May 13, 2014, 09:05:36 pm
4 Castlemilk Moorit wethers for sale. 2013 bred. They are ready for slaughter from now (the meat from this breed is excellent!). They would also make really nice, relatively easy to keep, lawnmower pets. £50 each. I also have a pedigree 2011 ewe which proves difficult to get into lamb- but would make a nice lawnmower...or mutton £40.

I have a livestock trailer so could possibly deliver if local-ish to Sheffield for cost of diesel.

6x ewe lambs, 5x wethers and loan of a superb Castlemilk ram later in the year

These are all from a very low input system.

Thanks,

we had some last year and the meat IS super,
I would have some more if our house move would hurry up.

Hi there....I might be interested in the loan of a tup later in the year if he is still available.... I am just about to start with this breed but cannot do anything for another 5 weeks due to hernia operation, also might be interested in the wethers too and even the ewe lambs if they are still for sale at the beginning of July...although if you could deliver then maybe earlier?.... are your sheep registered by the way?... I am 4 miles from J28 of the M1.
Many thanks
Brian
