tame sheep
« on: March 14, 2010, 06:21:49 am »
I'd like to find a new home for Sprocket, he is a one year old castrated sheep who was bottle fed and so is very friendly.
I used him to keep my ram company whilst the ewes were housed for lambing and now he is redundant.
£20 will secure him. You will need a holding number and a trailer to collect him from his home near Stansted Airport, Essex.
Please call me 07768 368053  :wave:

By the way he is a Wiltshire Horn but because he is a wether ( castrated) he has girly horns rather than the huge horns of an entire ram. He sheds his fleece, like all Wiltshire Horns, and he has just started this year's moult.

I have a pet sheep called  Bertie, in with the goats and small pony and llama. He was bottle fed too.  Only thing is he prefers humans to animal company now!!!  Must say he is easy to handle and catch which is good.  Pity you are so far away ....it would be nice for Bertie to have company of his own kind.
