Rasing Sheep The Modern Way

This is some serious book, no wasted pages here. From chapter 1 to the end is a steady flow of information. The Pictures are clear and plenty. This book is an excellent book.

GREAT!

I got this book to read and STUDY before we made a decision to get a sheep. (1) as a pet. Now, I want to get 2 for breeding. The book has everything you need to know. We are waiting until we get everything set up like the book says. I highly suggest you read this book BEFORE deciding to get a sheep.

Excellent for begginning shepherds!

A must for anyone who is starting up a sheep herd. It is a must before you purchase your sheep as it tells you about breeds and what the breeds primary use is. Gives you basic vetinary help and a list of basic supplies you need for lambing season.

An excellent primer on the subject of sheep.

Raising Sheep the Modern Way covers everthing from breeds of sheep to recipes. It is a must read for anyone new to raising sheep, and is a good reference book for the experienced shepherd as well. I have been in the sheep business for 14 years. I purchased the book when I bought my first ewe, and I still refer to it a couple of times each year.

easy quick referance for everybody!

I give this book to every person that I sell one of my miniature sheep to It saves the new owners a lot of time and frustration with with their new pet sheep.I was told about this book when I first started looking to purchase miniature sheep. It saved me money on everything that I needed for the mini's.It gives a good over all on everything from buying thru birthing,feeding,fence types,shelters,and covers most of the breeds.It also includes some medicine advice.
