Our sheep
Club members
keep a wide variety of sheep – thirty different breeds plus crossbreeds. In
June 2004 the total Club flock numbered 1,844. Our smallest flock is one and
some members have no sheep at all! In terms of numbers
of individual flocks, the two most popular breeds in the club are Jacob with
twenty flocks and Shetland with thirteen. These are followed by Badger Faced
Welsh Mountain (10 flocks ) Southdown (9 flocks), Black Welsh Mountain (8
flocks). In pure
numbers of sheep, Jacobs top the list at 225, followed by Shetlands (164), See the next page for a full list of breeds kept by Club
