We have 6 pedigree registered ewe lambs offered for sale, fully MV accreditated flock. Priced between £140 and £200ea
Fairly large breed of sheep but ideal for smallholders as they become very tame and easy to handle. The ewes have good maternal qualities, being very milky, prolifc and generally easy lambing due to their conformation. The lamb produces good quality lean meat.
We also have 3 nice crossbred ewe lambs (£100ea) and some purebred tup lambs.
pictures of the ewe lambs offered can be seen at http://zwartbles.webs.com/2010lambs.htm
We are in South Shropshire on the Welsh borders, delivery may be possible depending on distance/area

Hello Blacksheep might be interested in the cross ewes what are they crossed with
-
Hello Salopian
Thanks for your reply - 2 of the crossbred ewe lambs are out of a texel/mule cross type ewe put to a zwartbles tup and the 3rd is 3/4 zwartbles the 1/4 being the same texel/mule ewe. All are black/brown without the zwartbles markings, should make good future breeding ewes.
Whereabouts in Shropshire are you?
