Title: Looking for another pygmy...
Post by: gingercloverbramble on September 06, 2010, 09:48:31 am
Hi, We have an adorable castrated male pygmy called Scotty (about 8 months old) who happily lives with Ben and Jerry, our two orphaned pet lambs. 
Scotty and Ben and Jerry are very happy with eachother but we feel that now Ben and Jerry are getting bigger they could probably be allowed to go further afield out on the hillside to access more grazing.  However, Scotty could not do this - too many poisonous things - and of course, the risk of bloat!   So we are looking for another pygmy to keep Scotty company.  I am hoping to find someone nearer to home this time. We live on the west coast of Scotland (Argyll) but travelled to Aberdeen for Scotty.  Anybody have any contacts on this side of the country?!  Many thanks!!  ;)
