Well if you have a little room, a few HERS might fit in, you know his and hers RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, And for information sake, Katahdins are known for being naturally polled (hornless) it is one of their traits, But when they were first developed by Micheal Piel of MT Katahdin he crossed several breeds to get to what he was looking for and along the way several of the original stock did produce lambs with horns and can still be found today. They do curl back they don't stick straight up or out. They will not work for the show ring as they don't want to she horns in the ring. But they are still out there to be had if you really need horns. But I would talk him into a few hers with no horns as these are easier to find. But everyone is right with time and patience you can calm your babies down and make them tame..... ;)
