TroisChatNoir Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Does anyone know where I can buy Ouessant sheep locally - dept 36 near to La Chatre - I have followed up a few adverts recently but they have all been several hours drive away. I would like a couple as pets and hear they make great lawnmowers - no intention of eating them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 If you don't eat them, TCN, they'll grow old eventually, develop arthritis and will need hip and knee replacements; so that will be 8 hips and 8 knees. Very expensive!Sorry, just having a joke with you and no, I know nothing about sheep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I looked after several "pet" sheep in a past life and they lived well into their teens, Sweet 17 (although you're right about the arthritis, oddly enough.) Hip replacements though, there's a thought!EDIT: You could try contacting this chap:http://pagesperso-orange.fr/gemo.info/site%20gemo/page%202%20sommaire.htmWho appears to run the breeders' organisation.
