I've had a Ryeland ram for the last 7 years and have had the most fab fat lambs, from my mixed flock of mules, crosses and Charollais. I lost poor Jasper last year but replaced him with another Ryeland, this one has been put to Charollais, a mule, a cross, Zwartbles, Gotland and Herdwick! So will be interesting to see what I get this year lol.
