Hi There

I am in the process of searching for a ram for my 2 ryeland ewes and have  found a local farmer with a suffolk ram!!

Will he be too big for my 2 fat ladies??? is my question

Cheers

No, he won't be too big.

Whereabouts are you? Can you not find anyone with Ryelands near you?

Have pm'd you with a suggestion of a local ryeland breeder who might be able to help.
