[Jacob-list] Opinion regarding "true Jacob"

[Marguerite Van Beek]

Well that was last year's argument.  I breed two and four horn.  Four horn sheep do sell better but there are some people that prefer two horn sheep.  I have no idea where all of this is coming from.  I was told and read that Jacobs are not cookie cutter and do come 2 or 4 horn, leg marking, no leg markings, black, lilac. Where is all this talk of cross breeding coming from?  Did you ask that man why he thought that?

  Peggy - 

  I had a gentleman who wanted all my ram lambs this year - until he learned they were all 2 horns.  Not sure how we managed to get only 2 horned rams this year, but it happened.  He argued with my husband and said that true Jacobs should have 4 horns.
