I was wondering when some "dueling" comments were going to pop up!!:D :D

It took me a couple reads through actually in the beginning to pinpoint what was wrong with the title...:p :rolleyes:...

Maybe some Ninja Turtles too? :weee They are my favorites!

Just looking at them, I would say the Jacobs come pretty well equipped for sheep ninjas.

Nah ! them thar horns are no match for a solid hornless forehead... I had a Suffolk ram that kicked butt on 5 fully matured curled horned Ramboulet rams. He even killed one by lowering his head on a butting match and broke the Ramboulet's nose , who then bled to death.:ep I was there when this happened. :th

pfffffttt you don't need to produce purebreds! :p Crossed stock is where it's at ;)

But if I were you I would decide if you like long wool or fine wool and then choose your ewes for that (long wool - border leicester, romney, lincoln longwool, etc; fine wool - rambouillet, delaine, etc) and then buy a terminal sire for market lambs (ie suffolk, texel, any blackface breed, etc) that way you can have fast growing lambs you can eat plus since your ewe flock has the type of wool you desire, you will shear lots of fleeces that you want. JMO.
