I have Torddu Badger Faces and they’re a bunch of hooligans. As roddycm mentions, buying them off the hill is asking for trouble. I know because that’s exactly what I did! They were skitty, jumped everywhere like springboks, and liked to headbutt each other. They’d rather try and run through a fence than go through an open gate. When we saw the guy we bought them from and mentioned they seemed a little nuts he said “no, no; they’re just healthy!” On the plus side they are lightweight, good on various types of terrain, happy to forage, and as you say they are beautiful! Even though they were hard work I went back and bought more from the same flock.
After spending time with them sat in the field, bribing them with ewe nuts, and getting them in and handling them, they are slowly improving. They still act like a**holes sometimes but now it just makes me like them more; it’s all part of who they are.
Like any mountain sheep (or just any sheep!) if you can get them well-handled/bucket-trained it would obviously be a bonus!
If you wanted them to produce commercial lambs I know someone that used a Charollais tup and reckoned it threw a good lamb without the potential problems something like a Texel may cause.
I reckon you should go for it, and your other half will probably love them
