Dear all, I'm sorry I haven't been around for a bit. Life has been hard and is about to get harder. I have to sell all my sheep.
So - I have for sale the following Shetland sheep. I would like to sell them in 'families' if at all possible. They are all good quality, I have bought stock from highly regarded breeders. Many are 'feed from hand' tame, some are stupidly 'will be stroked' tame, and all will come to a bucket. I'm looking for £40 for a ewe, shearing or hogg, £30 for a gimmer lamb and £25 for a tup lamb - discounts for quantity!
Gimmer lamb, gimmer hogg = young females. Moorit - dark brown at base, 'sun-bleached' caramel at top, katmoget = badger-faced and dark underneath, gulmoget = mirror image of katmoget.
The numbers are ear tag numbers, for my reference. The tup lambs are all entire, and will need separating from their mothers/sisters in the next 3-4 weeks, so I'll consider selling them separately, or a family group without them, if necessary. The ewes are 2-4 shear.
Please PM me with your email, if you're interested in any particular sheep and I'll send you more photos of the relevant ones, and I can give you better details of the individual sheep.
