Here is the latest picture of my ram.

Isn't he gorgeous? He makes beautiful babies too :thumbsup: The last lamb born this spring had 6 horns, but he has been sold to a very nice lady.

if a lamb ever ends up with 6-8 of them and they are mostly on top, i'd advise naming it Medusa after that one methology "god" that had the snakes for hair lol

How old is your ram?
How commonplace is multiple horns like that?
Is it considered a positive quality or a negative quality in the animal?

What is his name?

Wow! He is gorgeous, but he looks like someone you would not want to mess with. I hope he's gentle and not they kind of ram that likes to ram you from behind. I had to care for a ram like that once, without horns. Yikes!

He's a very gentle fellah, but I still don't ever turn my back on him :eek6: He's not a large ram which is a plus when it comes to handling him.

He's about 16 months old I think Kevie. I got him last October and he was 4 or 5 months old. The multiple horns is a positive quality :thumbsup: He's half Jacob. half Icelandic .
