I don't know where you are, Lynda, but I urge you to take a good luck  
at what other locals are farming.

I was all about having wool sheep until I experiemented and found I  
really couldn't use them in the summer, they got heat stressed easily.
If you are in the South, the Icelandics might have a tough time.

I'd love to be running nothing but Corriedales, because I think they  
are the cutest things ever, but I was reluctant to deal with them here  
in Virginia. Just too much maintenance for me.

Cheers
