Gorgeous and SO tiny! 

After wrestling with some young Swaledale tups today, I'm sorely tempted to "downsize"!

They are certainly a joy to work with and seem to enjoy human company. If we go out and sit in the field, we are instantly surrounded by the group and they will allow us to scratch them forever. The odd oat cake in a pocket is never missed  :thumbsup:

If I was to ever get sheep, this would be the breed! Adorable!
