hello all,
first of all what a fabulous site, I have been following posts for a wee while but haven't yet introduced myself although I did get advice from Rosemary at the Forfar Poultry sale recently and I recognised her without the bottle of bud!!!
I wouldn't describe myself as a smallholder but I became involved with pygmy goats and now have 14, for theraputic reasons, I work with children who are developmentally delayed or have behavioural issues and the difference the goats have made to their live has been immense. I started off with 6 goats and before i knew it was addicted and got some more. And some ducks and chickens. My hubby cut the field yesterday hopefully for the last time this year (the goats eat everything but the grass!).
I am now thinking about getting a few sheep, am not bothered about type as they would be lawnmowers but due due my work with the children they must be tame, they would have a forever home, and wouldnt be eaten
please keep me in mind if you need to rehome any pet sheep. I am in Arbroath NE Scotland
thankyou
