Most breeders have some sort of program they are working on as far as what they want their sheep to look like so their are many rams out there that are perfect for a specific flock I don't think there is 1 ram that would be the perfect ram for every flick so I'm not sure if you would be able to gain anything by asking this for yourself but if you said what you were looking for I'm sure there would be some input

I agree totally with emsoff if I bred ewe lambs before they would lamb at 13 months they milk very poorly and 13-14 months were almost as good as aged ewes so I would give them an extra month or two

Never heard of using it we used the iodine or la 200 method with great success once the lambs are fully mature we haven't seen any issues again
