One day her husband went out to feed the ram that they kept in his own pen (nasty disposition) and he pushed the gate in instead of opening it out and entering...the ram saw the bucket of grain and charged the gate. Her hubby got a finger amputated between the gate and the post...
He called the guy that butchered small animals (goats and sheep) and told him he was going to shoot that damn ram and would the guy still process it if he brought him a dead animal....he shot the critter after bandaging his hand and had a couple of neighbors load the carcass into his truck....
I don't know why he got mad at me when I called him lefty four fingers, but I only did it once.....I thought he was going to shoot me too..
The friend who taught me to spin (the one who hates to ply) kept angoras until she got tired of the nasty disposition. Bad attitude must be one of the breed standards, LOL.
She still has a hundred head of ewes on her family farm, mostly Romney, with some merino, cotswald, lincoln, dorset and texel for variety. She keeps 7-10 bucks in a seperate pen and most of them are total sweeties.
Some old ladies collect cats, we collect sheep!
