Thanks Donna-Marie,
I appreciate the input. Most of my fencing has been tested by the
goats, but I tried putting up something makeshift to separate the boys
until I could figure out what to do with them. They took it down pretty
easily :-) For their paddocks I have some close railed pipe

There are only 2 real down sides to the breed-their small size, and their
flighty temperament. The second can be ameliorated somewhat, but only the
bottle babies have any chance of being docile like a Suffolk or Dorper.
regarding bottle-fed American Blackbellies
My
I would definitely recommend Blackbellies for new sheep owners. I am
sure there are some in Alberta, look a the breeder list, or do a google
search for Blackbellies or Barbado or Barbadoes or Hair sheep, would be
my suggestion. Welcome to the list...
