Truth About Sheep

 I read this the other day in an old smallholding book and I thought it summed up keeping sheep perfectly.

  1. First: I LOVE that this book cover is vintage Britains. I have a couple of the ones on the cover in my dining room collection!
    Second: I am continually amazed that sheep as a species have made it this far. From everything written about them they are prone to dropping dead, wandering off, getting stuck in fencing or exploding at a moment's notice. Really makes you wonder where they would be if they weren't so useful for meat, milk and wool. BTW have you ever done anything with the milk?

    1. Sheep are a special animal! If they didn't taste so good I'm sure there would be very few around!
