Hi,
I have a 7yo Shetland Ram. I lost his friend Hugo on Friday, as he had broken his shoulder and had to be pts.
He is currently out in a field with a friends horse and has goats as neighbours. My horses generally pick on him a bit. I worried about him being lonely, so potentially looking at getting a couple more sheep to keep him company.
I was wondering what to get. I don't think I want ewes as don't need any lambs, but don't want to get rams as the last lot, specifically Ted who is left is pretty bosterious and likes to chace and headbut, unless you have a stick with you.
Therefore I was debating getting a couple of castrated males. Would this work? Also Ted has an impressive set of horns, would I need to get others with horns?
Or is there anyone who I could loan a couple of sheep from, if that is actually a thing?
Thank you for reading
Regards
Emily
