Greenfield Pendragon
I am a believer in fate and at the time I was looking for a ram for our girls, Pendragon’s owner was looking for a new home for this lovely lad. He was everything we wanted….great temperament, nicely put together, he’s a big boy. He is from the prestigious Mansel bloodlines. He has proven himself […]
Baaaabara
I know I shouldn’t but I have to confess with the faintest hairs breadth Baaaaabara is my favourite. She came from the same flock as Gale and she is very much the matriarch. Not so much in an aggressive way, although she can head butt the others if they challenge her. But more so in […]

Dotty

Fudge
Fudge was one of the three girls we bought from near Abergavenny, Wales. Her colouring last year was so much lighter than the others and that was one of the reasons we were attracted to her. At their clipping last spring Fudge was the one who took on the greatest transformation – she went from […]
