Title: Small Flock Shearing
Post by: OneManandHisMocs on March 14, 2010, 06:37:02 pm

Hi my name is Adam, I live in Dorset and i am offering my services, shearing small flocks (100<) Dagging, crutching and routine foot trimming/vaccination etc.
Don’t get charge a fortune by big shearing gangs for shearing a few.
I have very competitive prices and very kind and cautious for the sheep.
I will be available in Dorset and possibly the surrounding counties depending on number and distance.
I have a portable shearing stand along with a 12 volt machine and battery, so any remote areas i can reach.
Ideal for those without barns or power.

For more information please contact me on 07794593483

Looking forward to shearing your sheep.

Adam

Have you advertised on River Cottage forum, there have been  quite a few enquiries and moans on there over the years about not being able to get small flocks done. Dont know what areas though. Hermit

You will be a Godsend. We've been lucky to get a really nice bloke up here. I wonder if he fancies a wee holiday in Carnoustie...

Hi welcome, as the owner of 2 and 1/2 sheep I do know how hard it is to get a shearer, luckily we have a Yorkshireman to shear ours, odd really as we are in Southern Brittany. ::)
