can you claim the 'running' costs of the sheep as expenses?

I'm assuming that people who buy their fleece in to spin claim the cost of the fleece as materials so if you're spinning the fleece from your own sheep can you claim the feed costs etc against tax?

Don't forget fencing, dog feed (Working sheepdog -earns his keep.)

If you have more than ten sheep (not goats unfortunately) then you may be eligible for farming grants.

Most importantly Stacey register for VAT.

Aaaarrgh! Forms!

I'm only in the early planning stages right now but I'm going to see if I can get some professional advice. We're an Objective One area so there's a fair amount of funding around. There's an agency caled Cartwheel who keep sending me grant application forms and apparently I may qualify for a one to one consultation with one of their consultants.

I just have to be careful that I'm ready and recovered enough so that it doesn't all go ***'s up before I've even started.
