Practical Sheep Keeping

by Kim Cardell

Overview

Practical Sheep Keeping (new paperback edition) explains everything you need to know to manage sheep and keep them healthy. Aimed particularly at the keeper of the small flock—say around thirty ewes—the principles nevertheless apply to flocks of all sizes. From choosing and buying, through housing, feeding and routine management, to breeding and lambing, Kim Cardell offers sound advice based on many years' experience.
