im new to this site and was recently considering getting a few sheep as pets. What is the friendliest breed and what gender should I get? Also how much space do they need? Any information is appreciated:)

Greetings and welcome to BYH :frow Sheep are actually livestock, not "pets" although many who own them do consider some pets. Here's a couple of sites put together by one of our long time members:
http://www.selectsmart.com/plus/select.php?url=sheepbreed http://www.selectsmart.com/plus/select.php?url=uncommonsheep
http://www.selectsmart.com/plus/select.php?url=uncommonsheep
They aren't really designed for folks looking for pets, but all the important aspects of sheep are included to choose from. There's also all kinds of information and knowledge available in the multitude of threads here on the site. In addition, we have an really great group of active Sheeple here that offer help when someone has an issue or problem/question. Browse around and make yourself at home. If you have other questions, just go ahead and post them.
