Goats or sheep?

    Hi,
    Last year I moved into a house with a few acres of land which I have since rented out to a neighbour farmer. I hung on to two small patches about a half acre each. I am growing fruit and veg and keeping a few hens on one and the other is growing wild. I also a couple of pigs arriving for a seperate area so am. I am thinking of getting a couple, just two, of sheep or goats to keep the growth in check for the half acre. I need refencing anyway so no problem there. I have heard that sheep take alot of care for illnesses and that goats do escape alot. I am leaning towards a couple of pygmy goats as there is also alot of briars etc. on the land. I am not sure if there's enough space or eating for a couple of sheep year round. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thanks.
