Hi all,
I went to speak to my lovely neighbours who are nearing 80, I had heard from other neighbours that they have been struggling, especially feeding pet lambs, so went to offer my assistance and also see if they had a few ewes I could buy from them. We have just finalised our land purchase, so I told them the good news and they were made up for us. So much so, that I came away with 14 of last years ewe lambs for practically nothing. (Would have been nothing if they had had their way!!)
Long tale short, wondering what crosses well with Cheviots? Tup would also be going in with our Shetlands too. As part of our land expansion we will be venturing into selling lambs at market for the first time, so assuming something like a Suffolk should work well?
Thanks.
