One must bear in mind when reading the chapters on disease that as in a human health care book numerous diseases are mentioned, but very few affect a person. The same can be said about sheep. The information contained in this booklet draws your attention to several problems that may or may not occur just in case you need to know supplementary information on how to deal with a specific illness. Raising sheep has many benefits, not just financial but also the satisfaction of seeing the hand of Allah in yet another aspect of His wondrous creation. Al Hamdulillah!
For the most part sheep are nice gentle animals. They provide an economical efficient source of food, warmth and fiber. There are many kinds of weeds and vegetation that other livestock will not touch that they will eat, and they are also relatively inexpensive to begin raising. Not only that, they reproduce quickly so just a minimal capital outlay can turn in to a good sized flock within a short period.
Sheep are really good choice of animal for those who are small property owners and don't have much space to raise cattle. Up to seven ewes and their lambs can be raised on the amount of land that just one cow and her calf!
We advise you to read this booklet in its entirety to get a better understanding of how raise sheep, learn about their behavior and so on, rather than relying on the 'Quick Index Reference' at the end of the book alone.
