Any preference on type/breed? Will you want to get them in-lamb this autumn?

I have a couple of Suffolk crosses which are very tame.  For the right price and an exceptional home I would let them go.  They are running with Suffolk tup but not yet covered.  Both produced lovely lambs last year.  They are 3 years old

Hi pastie4x4,

I have PM'd you.  I only have 3 adults, 2 Suffolk x and 1 pure pedigree Suffolk.  However all 3 will be tupped and consistently produce twins so likely to get another 4 ewe lambs (1 always has girls, other 2 tend to have one of each).
