Dear All
thank you for all the welcomes and info.
We are loving the farm so far but need sheep asap on the land. I am finding that farmers are trying to sell they c*** to us!! as we are newbies!! As if we are stupid!!! We ofcourse at least we can read up on the breed standards!! and know what to look for. I hate to be taken for a ride so bit worried now how I will get my sheep without the wool being pulled over my eyes. excuse the pun!!
Kanisha can you give me access to ouessants.ning.com - I have filled in my info but cannot get in.
Does anyone know what the deal is with getting ouessants from France?? Is Gemo the French equivalent for breed society
sorry for ignorance!!
Woolyshepherd any contacts in my area will be great. I am finding Uk has mainly black ouessants. Since I am getting black welsh mountain sheep I wanted something different thats all.
In reply to are we starting a rare breeds farm. no just want hard breeds that have good meat. ouessants are for pets. But sheep and cattle for meat. converting farm to organic.
re chickens. one of my chickens feathers are coming off and she is pecking herself. puff orpingtons. Is she moulting as it is autumn but my other chickens are not???
