Recently I have been reading articles on sheep inbreeding. We have recently had several lambs, all of which happened to be male. Our last sheep is due and if she has a female, I would like to keep her purely for breeding sheep that we will eat. What are your thoughts on this? It is always giving me a yucky vibe but I know ppl do it. I don’t let my chickens even cross breed, but I know ppl do that too. I know it is an acceptable practice for some people, and I certainly am not breeding for show or anything like that. I just need another female Katahdin, and I’m having a hard time finding one locally. We would slaughter her lambs for food when they’re the appropriate age. Does it gross you out? Do you allow this?
