Post by: country soul on February 09, 2010, 02:30:52 pm

I ve been looking at this forum for a while getting the odd tip here and there,so thought I should introduce myself.
We have a small holding in West Yorkshire ,it would be good to know if anyone else  is from round these parts
We keep Hampshire down and charollais sheep which are sold either for breeding or to supply lamb for the freezer
If anyone was looking to start a small flock we have some bonny and very calm  Hamp x charollais ewe lambs for sale.
We also have light sussex large fowl and a greenhouse to keep us occupied
Like everyone else I suspect we are looking forward to spring!

Hi from Warwickshire. It was gorgeous here today, and it was lovely being outside and tidying the veg beds.

Hello, from the Scottish Borders, where it snowed again this morning, but fortunately the sun has melted it all!

I am looking for a charrollais tup lamb this summer as terminal sire for my Shetland/TXL crosses to produce fat lambs! What would I need to put in the piggy bank for an unregistered tup lamb?
