For the Boreray breeders
« on: March 15, 2017, 01:56:11 pm »
I have a favour to ask. I am planning a landscape quilt in which I would like to include a Boreray tup. I need to find a suitable photo and haven't had much luck searching online. I was wondering if any of you might have a photo that you would be happy for me to use.
Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.

Try Mrs Woolsack (Jane Cooper.). She has a flock of Borerays on Orkney and is an avid proponent of British sheep, wool and crafting.

Here's a link to her blog when she got the first of her Boreray boys http://mrswoolsack.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/the-boreray-boys.html
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
