Raising Sheep - How We Do It And More [Kindle Edition]

T.A. Pruitt (Author)

Book Description

I love sheep. I love all breeds of sheep (some more than others). We have put this book together for those people who are wanting to either get into the sheep business (or are at least thinking about it) or for the veteran shepherd who is just looking for some new ideas.

This book discusses the way we do things, our flock, how we manage them and a whole lot more.

I really think that you will enjoy the "Resources" chapter. Everything in it should help improve anybody's livestock business.

There are also a handful of pictures in the "Pictures" chapter.

The contents includes the following:

Intro
About Us and Our Sheep
Questions to Ask Yourself
Where to Find Sheep
Ewes
Rams
Lambing
Health Care
Feeding Sheep
Fencing
Income Ideas
In Closing
Resources
About the Author
Pictures

So if you want to learn how to raise sheep then this book should be of some use to you.

This is a pretty good book. I have been in the sheep business (we only have about 60 head) for a couple of years now and was just looking for a few ideas that might improve our operation and there are a few things in this book that I am sure will help us out.

I really got allot out of the resource chapter. Thanks for adding that.

Easy to read and understand. Liked that while this is how he does things many sheep farmers do not do things the same way. I like the low maintenance approach.

This book is a nice overview for someone interested in starting a low maintenance sheep herd. The chapter with resources lists many websites to help you get started. This book offers some ideas about raising sheep that are different from the main stream.
