Sex injuries force Baz the ram into lounge room retirement after castration

Baz the ram is, or at least was, very committed to procreation.

Three years ago he was rescued by Steve Burt and Angela Hocking and now lives with them on a block of land in Helidon, two hours’ drive west of Brisbane.

“The people who had him didn’t need him anymore because he’d bred with everything he could on their farm,” Mr Burt said.

Since then, among a small flock of ewes on just 0.80 hectares, Baz has fathered 13 lambs in three years.
