  • All about the Lleyn sheep breed
    In the video today I'll be talking a bit about lleyn sheep and why they have boomed in popularity over the past 20 years. Here on the farm we breed pedigree lleyn ewes and have a flock currently standing at 150 ewes with 45 ewe lambs to come into the flock as replacements.

    Great video, what are their feet like, are they good on soft (wet) ground?
    Do they suffer foot rot?

      Sounds daft but I’m picky and go for ewes with black hoof as it’s harder and don’t get problems

      Hi Jock. Yes they are a maternal, easy lambing breed designed for higher lambing percentage and good as a commercial ewe for crossing

    I'd say a good texel would put length height and weight into lambs.

    I can't watch when you keep calling us 'guys'. It's not a British word and annoys me immensely. Everyone, folks even would be more appropriate.
