    any Lleyn sheep producers, on boards?

    was thinking of purchasing a few breeders and wondering if anyone has experience of them?

    seem to be a good breed. they are very prolific.
    nice size and easy to feed, best left for late spring lambing im told.
    nice batch on done deal about 3 days ago, crossbred ones

    thanks,

    yeah look a nice clean sheep,
    however if they are late season breeders, they may not suit our system, we tend to lamb about 40 ewe lambs each april and move them towards early spring after that,

    will have a look on done deal
