    We are getting sheep soon. Looking by at Babydoll sheep. Just purchased the electronic, movable fencing so we can graze them. We have 20 acres and most all other barnyard animals. But I want lamb!!!!! Yum!!

    Hi, interesting discussion. Can you answer the question on digging out of the tractor? We use chicken tractors quite a bit for the birds but not yet for the rabbits. Do you think they don’t dig out because you move it twice a day? What about at night? Has it been an issue at all? Thanks for any thoughts!

    I joined a couple FB groups to see what I could see. Not much so far on purchasing reputable breeding pairs. If you could provide a lead, that would be very appreciated. Thank you!

    I’m a Cracker from way back. That’s where I’d love to start for anything. Do you sell breeding pairs or know who might? In Polk County.

    I am not interested in the milk as we already gave milk goats and a dairy cow . But I DO want lamb for meat. Are crackers the way to go? Or what are your thoughts on best breed for Florida for meat? I gave a lot to learn on sheep.
