 Do you have any handy pictures of the adults who were bred this year? Can you still get four-horned lambs or is it much less likely with Isadore having two horns?

Reba looks so prim and proper!  And Nimrod almost reminds me of Twofer, with those giant horns!I think we need way more pictures of the last round, though. I kept patiently waiting for more pictures.

Thank you!  Your flock is so much fun to see.Did you decide not to dock some of their tails? I remember you once talking about experimenting with not docking tails, and it looks like this group has a mix of short and long tails (or the tails are just more hidden on some of them).

I sat on him for a while so he could re-evaluate his life choices and he seems to have got it out of his system now. He's 2 and in a new place and trying to impress ladies so I won't hold one rear end in a top hat day against him but if he tries again it won't matter how pretty he is, he will be on an all expense paid trip to freezer camp.  Did he charge you? Even with handles on his head, I'd think it'd be easy for a ram to knock down a person. If he does it again, would you consider selling him to someone who doesn't care about well-behaved rams? Would the person you got him from be offended if they knew?

Instant Jellyfish posted:Personally I think there are too many pretty rams in the world to keep ones that as also douchebags, even if it turned out to be a very expensive stew. My health and safety is worth more than any purchase price. I wouldn't sell an actually aggressive ram to anyone but a slaughterhouse. I would feel awful if an animal I sold went on to hurt someone and most other buyers would be hunters who would want to turn him lose and have people pay to hunt him down for his horns and I wouldn't do that to Glen. His breeder would understand if I made that choice, sheep people are nothing if not practical. Some nasty rams do pass on their aggressive personalities and I wouldn't breed from them but I don't think that's the situation here. People hunt sheep? They're livestock! I don't even see where the sport could be in that. Thanks for the explanation.  It's interesting to hear how you deal with rambunctious rams. Hopefully Glen settles down with training!Do they still expect you to pet them when they're all covered in pee?
