I've yet again just retrieved my book by Tim Tyne "The Sheep Book for Smallholders" from the shelf and spent a pleasant half hour just going over the "Autumn" section to remind myself about allsorts  .    I love this time of year as there's such a lot to monitor and get rather excited about what with all the pre-tupping MOTs and then getting those tups in there and noticing how much they've worked     

For no other reason except that if anyone wants ideas for Xmas presents etc....this book is just BRILLIANT.  It gave me the confidence to Tube feed a lamb for the first time...which I'd always been tentative about...and its my absolute Bible for all things SHEEP.    HIGHTLY recommended reading and VERY EASY to read to.   

Thanks again to Tim for increasing my knowledge and confidence over the past couple of years.....and for years to come no doubt

If you're a sheepkeeper....you won't regret it.    It now stays by my side until after lambing next Spring  ....then it may move a few yards away....but be referred to again and again.

Thanks Baz. 

We hoped the books section would take off so good to see those Google results already.

Anyone who has read this book (or any of the others we list) please add your comments to the relevant pages on TAS too, it really helps others find the best books on the major topics - and Amazon as well since that's where VSS and other authors will see most benefit.

another big thumbs up from me for this book. i've got two copies, one clean one that stays at home and one with a rainbow (a rather dirty rainbow!) of coloured finger prints all over it which is in a shed on farm. brilliant book for info and just a good read over a cuppa.

I bought one for a friend of mine (Dot got Tim to sign it as Carol is a big fan (as we all are, of course)) - I had a sneaky read before I wrapped it but I've now ordered my own copy.

My OH wrote it - but there was quite a lot of researching and picture work done by yours truly. The next book wil be a true joint effort with both our names on the cover.

So glad everyone is finding useful - Tim's aim was to write the book he wished he had had when he was starting with sheep. Sounds like he might have succeeded.
