Most impressive sheepFor me has to be the Blue Faced Leicester because its head is sort of peanut shaped. Does anyone else know of an animal that is shaped like a nut, I wonder?

WordThe head of Blue Faced Leicester is nuciform.
Nuciform is a good word I reckon.

dude,much respect for your sheep of choice.

DramaticIn my very first job we had a poster of sheep breeds on the office wall. The Blue Faced Leicesters were pictured on top of a small knoll looking herorically in the middle distance their nuciform heads held aloft, whilst a shepheard waved his arm in a seemingly futile act of sheep herding. Oh yes dramatic sheep images indeed.
The prawn was inevitable.

Mister Crab?Can nuts be nuciform, or is that just tautological?

Nuciformmeans in the shape of a nut, so i suppose all nuts are inherently nuciform, although of course there are various shapes of nut, so I suppose that covers quite a lot of things
