Sheep forum?

Conmaicne Mara

Is there scope for a sheep sub forum? Might just be me, sheep related threads seem to get pushed down the list kind of fast. Maybe a sub forum would generate more sheep discussion?

Yea I agree. Every time we set up a post it gets taken over by cattle stories

Since rancher is on of the few full time sheep farmers and has a vast knowledge I propose he be mod of the forum.... where do go we from here about getting this up and running?

might head for roscrea in a while,

@ Glenco , speak to Mike Harty at the mart he may be able to arrange transport

AFAIK, that's not how it works. I started this thread to gauge interest here from actual sheep farmers. Next step is to put in a formal request in the proper forum.

Leave this thread run another day or two maybe and then I'll do that and provide a link tot hat thread as we'll need supporters to post "+1" in that thread. Needs 25+ members to unconditionally support (meaning "+1", not "+1, but only if condition X,Y&Z are met" it, then there's a 6 week window of consideration for the admin who will say yes or no. It's most likely that the existing F&F mods would also mod a new sheep sub forum.

See if we can get a few more on board in this thread first then I'll open the formal one.
