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.
Now you tell me.
It is from the old sod. It is called Haggis.
That recipe works for sheep or beef.

That recipe will work for those deer that are eating your plants. Do a neck shot or haunch shot to keep from ruining the haggis vitals.
