Thank you for sharing your knowledge of slaughtering the animal humanely and with what I thought was a lot of dignity. I would like to learn more of your chosen path as I believe it is noble and good. On the subject of sheep. The sheep we slaughtered today was a St.Croix/Dorper. As it grew it was relatively easy to care for. All we did was worm it once with nasty commercial chemicals about 10 months ago. After that we used diatomaceous earth. It seems to work very well as our sheep had a bunch of fatty tissue and seemed to be very healthy. One note is that with sheep or goats the black hoofed animals do a lot better and need less attention in care of their hooves. Excellent animals and I plan to get more to feed my family and circumvent the cow and chicken culture we are raised in. Scott,

It's been a real good introduction to the subject. We'd just been wondering what we'd do about keep all the land we plan to purchase trim and neat. It was a good time to come across your article. Thanks again for all the insights for us beginning farmers! Hey Scott, Thanks for the primer on tropical hair sheep. It’s been a real good introduction to the subject.
