over the next few months I really hope that I will gets some tips and pointers from experianced shepards, all will be appreciated, ive had plenty of past experiance with dairy cattle, now with my own flooring business 20 years later and some land at my daughters stables that we are able to use with a holding number and 10 store lambs which will go to the abattoir this Oct, I am hoping to move onto the next step to gain a unique flock number from AHO, looking at southdowns.
Is there any local shepards in the maidstone/sevenoaks areas? if so look forward to some comunication.
One question to kick off would be should I buy a ram? what costs would I expect? I realise I need to remove him for a period so he doesnt get his wicked way with any ewe lambs, would anyone like to add anything?
all appreciated
Andy
