Unregistered ram lambs for finishing.
These are full pedigree boys, but with incorrect markings, and hence not registrable with the breed society. (Like the little chap pictured above.) These ram lambs will be left ‘entire’ - i.e. not castrated - as (in my opinion) they grow and finish better that way. It is not recommended that these animals are kept as ‘lawn-mowers’ as, with maturity, they may become difficult to manage. Being mountain sheep, they are designed to be very thrifty, so thrive on good grazing, and do not require much in the way of proprietary feed to finish. However, they are not fast finishing, and will have to be kept separate from any females from August onwards.
