I've started researching sheep, this is something I want to consider in the next 1-2 years. From what I can gather we have plenty of room to support a small flock, I'm really only interested in having 2. These are the ones I like best so far, Babydoll Southdowns. They are a bit on the expensive side and if I do want them in a couple of years I'll probably have to start looking very soon in order to be placed on a list, so we'll see.
They'd make great natural lawnmowers and possibly a source of home-made sheep's cheese although to be honest, I'm pretty sure I don't want to deal with breeding and all of that. Anyway, as I mentioned, this is all research for the future. We still need to get our chicken coop built and stocked and worry about them first! There are a few chicken breeds that look interesting, I'll write about them as soon as we've made some decisions!
