An Irish farmer who claims to have bred a cross between a sheep and a goat is launching a charity competion to find a name for the rare creature.
Paddy Murphy, who also runs a village pub in Ballymore Eustace, County Kildare, has been overwhelmed by the interest after a YouTube video of his new arrival went viral.
The hybrid – sometimes referred to as a geep or a shoat – is believed to be extremely unusual.
Murphy said he delivered the animal late at night, and it was only the next morning that he realised it was a bit different.
