In Memory Of Gladiator | THE BEST RAM EVER!

Video: In Memory Of Gladiator | THE BEST RAM EVER!


This video is in memory of my favourite ram of all time, our Suffolk ram Gladiator who was, and will always be, the best ram ever! He had a huge impact not only on our flock by producing so many replacements for us and was our most asked for ram as a sire for both ewes and rams going to other farms. He was also popular with visitors who were amazed by his size and kind disposition. He truly was a gentle giant who people liked to get their photos with. He passed away at home at seven and a half years old. We vowed he would stay here forever and he did. He will be greatly missed and he is irreplaceable in my eyes! Love you Gladiator
