Intro for our ram - Casanunda

We've been thinking about breeding our sheep for a while since we like the thought of mutton and the wool is awesome (even though Ivan hasn't given me enough time to actually start processing it). Well, I found a 4 month old Shetland ram on craigslist for a very reasonable price so I went to go pick him up. The thing is... he's Shetland which is one of the smallest breeds. Mind you they are endangered and they are a heritage breed so we thought it was a win for us to help the species on a bit. Well, when I brought him home my first thought was... I'm going to need a step ladder for him. Really, he is that short. About 1/2 the height of the other sheep, granted that he is not full grown yet but if he does not put on few inches the other sheep will have to start laying down to breed. On the plus side he has a calm demeanor nice wool and cool black curly horns. Due to his short stature and his adoring affection he showers on the sheep we decided to call him Casanunda, after the dwarf character from Pratchett. If you are a disc world fan you will understand. So with any luck (and perhaps a step ladder) we will have some baby lambs running around the farm in the near future.
