Another Newbie
« on: May 28, 2021, 08:01:38 am »
I’m a total newbie to owning sheep and have just ‘inherited’ a couple of orphan lambs. So much to learn... I didn’t realise sheep keeping was such a complex affair... thought horses were bad enough 😬😂
I’m finding this site/forum incredibly useful, so much so that I had a relatively intelligent conversation with the vets I registered the lambs with.
Just need to train the dog to co exist with the lambs... not an easy one for a miniature schnauzer... but he lives with cats so will succeed eventually 🙏🙏
I’m in Suffolk 👍🏻

Hello and welcome to TAS  :wave:
Hopefully you'll have a long and happy sheep keeping career  :excited: Mind you, they can be addictive, so be warned. :)

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
