Anyone know anything about Leicester sheep or know any good breeders. I am from Indiana, but am willing to drive into Michigan or Ohio for them. I like the heritage breeds, and already have some Jacobs.
Thanks!
I have never posted a pic here before, so here goes.... Hopefully this is a picture of my Jacob ram eating out of my hand....
Please let it work, please let it work....
Hi Bil~ I just got Jacobs about 4 weeks ago, before that I only kept Chickens. So the thought also crossed my mind about how scary the horns could be!
After 2 days with the 2 sheep (male and female) that I got, the female was eating grain out of my hand, and very friendly. After 1 week...
I have Jacob Sheep, and their temperament is wonderful. It took me only 2 days to get them to come to me when I talked to them, after 2 weeks they would see me a RUN to me. Their fleece is excellent for spinning and knitting/ weaving.
