Important points? Have good fence and shelter, water available first before getting any. If you can"t watch close- get something like Shetlands as Fawteen has or something close to "primitive" breed. For a starter trial- suggest a couple weaned wethers for summer lawnmowing duty, then butcher in late fall. If you want to try keeping over winter after this you can get a pair of ewes. Single sheep gets lonely and can cause trouble, a pair of sheep will have a buddy, stay a bit calmer.
