Hi
We rent some land for our small flock of balwens. Does anyone else out there keep this lovely breed?

Don't wrestle with pigs, they will love it and you will just get all muddy.

Let go of who you are and become who you are meant to be.

Hi,  We moved to Powys nine months ago.  We are planning to have a small number of sheep and are being drawn towards Balwens. Where abouts are you? We are halfway between Welshpool and Machynlleth.

the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.

Hello from mid-Devon.
We have a modest flock of Balwens - and we adore them!  Though they are pesky!

Hi from north Cumbria  :wave:

No Balwens here, but I spun Balwen for the first time on the recent Tour of British Fleece.   :spin:
