in the world, with references to the breed found in the literature

of the Middle Ages. 

It is still as important today for modern agriculture as any other

breed, they are the foundation stone of the sheep industry in 

Wales. They are an economical and hardy breed, are good grazers

and the ewes make excellent mothers and are protective of their lambs.

Other advantages are that they are relatively inexpensive to purchase,

they lamb outdoors easily and they require little additional feed which

equals Low Input - High Output

This figurine from 2002 was a part of the very successful sheep breeds

series by Lesley McKenzie, this particular Ram is one of the lesser lights,

not in terms of quality, but that it is not often seen. It is in good condition,

no damage, clean and fresh in appearance. I have a good and richly 

varied collection of figurines on Ebay, they cover all the interest areas, something

to cater for all BFAs tastes, please browse through them and thanks for looking.
