kelpiecuddles Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 I had another thought, I wonder if I could find someone that might hire me 4 sheep out of a large flock that I could swap over every now an then. They would recieve excellent care while with us and could go back for shearing, etc. I will have the trailer so transport for a small number would be easy.

herding_guy Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 When you do move down come and visit me and run your dog on the sheep. Hopefully I'll have the dorset crosses by then as well and maybe even ducks. Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjk05 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I wonder if I could find someone that might hire me 4 sheep out of a large flock that I could swap over every now an then. I asked the resident farmer, and that's actually what he suggested... said if you lived near here, he'd loan you some. So you could probably find someone not too far off who'd lease you some sheep, and will swap them when you need to. He also said go for young lambs, early shorn if possible, and don't worry about breed, but try to turn them over. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
