Buying an EasyRam
Buying an EasyRam - Follow our 6 step plan
1. Ring Robyn or Nick
or send us an email for a no obligation discussion.
Between us we have been selling rams for over 50 years. Since we started EasyRams, we have sold every grass fed ram ourselves to every individual client. We are a simple family business with no salesmen: no on farm auctions: no off farm auctions: no agents.
You tell us what you wish to achieve with your flock and we will advise you on the best ram to suit your needs.
We know our sheep and we understand the needs of customers throughout the UK.
2. You can either visit to select your own ram(s) or you can ask us to select on your behalf. Whatever you decide we will give you the following information.

We sell on a a first come first served basis
We take reserved orders through the whole year

3. Information you need to give us.
Do you want a shearling or a ram lamb?
Do you want a top 1/3 ram as assessed by figs for an extra £50/hd?
What breed are you requiring?
4. How many rams do I need to buy?
This depends on how many ewes you want to serve.
| 10-70 | 1 Ram Lamb |
|---|---|
| 100-120 | 1 Shearling or 2 Ram Lambs |
| 250 | 2 Shearlings |
If you run 1 ram (lamb or shearling) with a group, it is good practice to swap or to add a chaser after 1 cycle in the unlikely event that the single ram has not worked. This is very unusual.
5. You book a visit
Full Covid precautions will be in force to enable you to select in isolation and total security.
