so, someone asked awhile back if merino sheep are good for mutton awhile back and GracePorter1 said that they aren't, but I suggest she does more research because there are different variants of merino sheep and South African merino sheep are specifically bred for their meat. I literally only created this account to correct the misinformation she spread on that question that this site deemed as expert level advice when if you look into the uses of the different variants of merino sheep, the South African merino sheep is raised specifically for mutton. It is extremely irritating when a website deems misinformation as expert level advice and I have a passion for agriculture, so this bothers me even more I suggest this website askes for people's information references or I will be correcting more answers like this
