My neighbor called us up on Saturday and asked us if we would like 3 ewes and a ram. He knows a lady who has a newborn baby and is getting a divorce so she can't take care of the animals anymore. She gave him 6 ewes and a ram. The ram wasn't related to 3 of the ewes so he gave us those as he already has a ram.
He was told they are Barbados sheep(which I've never seen in person) but after doing abit of research they seem to be a hair sheep like the Katahdin which I have seen. These are not those!!

They are short-legged and only come up to upper mid-thigh. Not a sound from any of them! Mine were always talking, very strange!

Any ideas?!

Thanks, Sue
