@leahshomestead: If you think a sheep won’t give you enough milk… you might want to look a little closer. 👀 This is a first-time mama, and just look at that udder. Most people assume you need a cow to have a steady milk supply on a homestead—but that’s not always true. Eastern Friesian dairy sheep can produce a surprising amount of milk for their size, and for us… it’s been a much more manageable system. Less feed, less space, easier handling—and not 5 gallons of milk a day overwhelming your kitchen. Don’t get me wrong—sheep aren’t perfect. You do have to stay on top of parasite management and not overcrowd your land. But if you’re looking for a more realistic, sustainable way to get milk… A sheep might make a lot more sense than people realize. Sometimes it’s not about doing more… it’s about doing smarter.” #Homesteading #DairySheep #MilkSheep #EasternFriesian #HomesteadLife
Fascinating! We fixed my husband snoring by switching from cow milk to goat milk, so I’ve been tempted to raise goats for the milk. But never considered sheep!

I really recommend to get a milk goat, so the mixture of both milk is much better to drink and productions
