Hello, I'm an incidental sheep farmer from the Netherlands. Why incidental? Because I own 1 sheep and she runs with the flock belonging to good friends. We help them with their sheep where ever and when ever. I also take care of the bottle lambs for them, usually special cases( born with twitches, too weak).

I find information about sheep and raising lambs very thin where I live as sheep don't have the status they do elsewhere in the world. They're 'disposable'......I know right.

Any way, I hope to find more info and help with one of my fosters.

Hello and welcome to the forum from Wales  :wave: . Mad goatwoman of Madeley and I are both doing the Dutch course but it's only for 3 weeks so don't expect too much.
My father was Dutch and I am ashamed that I never learnt any previously.
