I seem to get them donated to me each year, mum overheard someone last year talking about how they were giving me a lamb and I don't even know the person! Between my own kidding and lambing this year it could get hectic!
Someone who gave me a lamb last year was mortified when she heard me saying how tasty it was! Did she honestly thhink going to keep a wether for a pet? :innocent:

Current price in Dorset/Wiltshire/Somerset area is from £10 per orphan collected. Although lots seem to be advertising at £25 each.

They must learn early in your part of the world if they can complete the forms necessary to advertise themselves for sale!  :-J
