This one clearly has no bra.
I just want to know why they keep it in the kitchen.

APEX (AP) — A man who kept 77 sheep in his downtown Apex home was charged Wednesday with 30 counts of misdemeanor animal cruelty.
David Watts, 47, was being held at the Wake County jail in lieu of $30,000 bond and was to appear in court Wednesday afternoon, Apex Police Detective Joey Best said.
Watts surrendered the flock to animal control officers Monday after police found some sheep grazing in the town cemetery. Watts kept some of the younger sheep on the ground floor of his suburban Raleigh house and kept the others in pens in the yard.
In an interview with The News & Observer of Raleigh, Watts said he was overwhelmed by the number of lambs born this year.
"It was just bad timing for me," Watts said. "I just got hit with the extra animals this year that needed extra supervision."
Thirty ailing sheep were euthanized. Kelli Ferris, a veterinarian who examined the animals, said rehabilitation would have caused the sheep too much pain.
A veterinarian was expected to examine another 60 sheep owned by Watts in Chatham County.
This one clearly has no bra.

Ray Davies ping!
He looks a little like Al Gore. Minus maybe 200 lbs.
Yikes! 2.97 miles from my sister.......
Looks like a sheep brothel to me..
Me too. I wonder if he's going to try to sell his
'black book' to the tabloids...
Heehee, those are great!
What? He didn't expect them to breed? This was a surprise for him?
Not me. I prefer goats.

Hoot Mon, Laddies and Lassies, its time for Haggis:
Ingredients:
1 sheep's stomach
1 sheep heart
1 sheep liver
½ pound suet, fresh (kidney fat is preferred)
¾ cup oatmeal
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne
½ teaspoon nutmeg
¾ cup stock
Procedure
Wash stomach; rub with salt and rinse.
Remove membranes and excess fat.
Soak in cold salted water.
Turn stomach inside out.
Boil the heart and liver in water, and simmer for 30 minutes.
Chop the heart and grate the liver.
Toast the oatmeal until golden brown.
Combine all ingredients and pack into the stomach, leaving enough room for the oatmeal to expand.
Press excess air out of the stomach and sew it up.
Simmer for three hours in a pot of water, pricking small holes in the stomach so that it doesn't explode.
Serve on a hot platter.
Enjoy with a case of Scottish Ale or a fifth of Good Scotch.
I will never again eat shepherd's pie.
The scary part is shepherd's pie doesn't have any sheep in it.
I live 5 miles from here. Didn't smell a thing. [Used to live 30 miles from Secacus, NJ. Good smell that, from 30 miles when the wind was right].
