Title: Shetland sheep shearing
Post by: Shetlands on June 16, 2015, 09:54:34 am

I have four shetlands and i am based in the barnstaple area, i desperately need a shearer, i have tried the local farmer but he came when i was on holiday and was unable to catch them....long story lol. I have contacted a local guy but now his number is unobtainable, is there anyone who can help, i dont need a perfect fleece job, i just need them sheared, if any one can help i would be so happy. Thanks. Yes i am new to smallholding.

There's a excellent shearer in south Devon - - I'll pm you his details (not sure if Batnstaple too far though)...
