Are these your sheep? Flock makes home in Dunkineely garden

A FLOCK of sheep has made home in the garden of a Dunkineely family, who are attempting to track the owner.

The eight sheep – two rams and six ewes – arrived into the garden on Wednesday.

The sheep have distinctive orange and green paint marks on their backs.

“We know absolutely nothing about sheep and we need to get them safely home,” concerned resident said.

“They arrived on Wednesday morning and have made themselves at home. We have tried the local community groups and farmers and we can’t find out who they belong too.

“A farmer kindly looked at them for us and said they were in good condition and that they were about a year old.”
