There is such a thing as a free sheep.
Having been in the sheep biz for 20 years on my ranch out west and hosting 
many roasts I can attest that among the Greek community they always used 
their neighbors sheep. Their neighbors did the same so it all evened out. 
Sheep Ranches make good rhombic farms but once they fall down its a case of 
been there done that and back to the yagi or log periodic on the tower. Life 
is too short otherwise.
