I am a 15 year old boy who has just started my very own flock.
Let me tell you a bit of history about my family. My granddad has one of the oldest Suffolk sheep flocks in England and I will be able to ask him for some advice even though he lives a long way away. I lived in Northumberland for most of my life and moved to Worcestershire 3 years ago as my dad changed jobs. My dad once trained as a Farm manger and then turned into a Professional Rugby player and now is a rugby coach.
I have bought 4 Suffolk gimmers this week. I was so excited when I got them on Saturday and I am checking them on the way to school every day.

My plans for the future include:
· Breeding ewe lambs so I have a bigger flock.
· Produce my own meat to sell and to eat.
· Finally the main thing is to have fun.
If there is anything else you would like to know about my sheep or anything about sheep feel free to send me a comment and I will try and answer it as soon I can.

Thank you
