Does a ram have horns?
Let's be a bit more precise: a "ram" is a male sheep, a female sheep is a "ewe" so technically there is no such thing as a "female ram". To answer the question that I think was meant to be asked is "Do female sheep (ewes) have horns?"The answer is: it depends on the breed and sometimes.Horned vs. Polled (hornless)While originally all rams had horns, sheep can have horns or not, depending upon their breed, sex, and genetics. In some sheep breeds, both sexes are horned. In some breeds, only the rams have horns. Rams usually have larger, more striking horns than ewes. When neither sex is horned, the breed is said to be polled or naturally hornless.Some sheep breeds have both a horned and polled (hornless) strain. Partial or undeveloped horns are call scurs. While horns are sometimes removed from cows or goats for safety and management ease, horns are seldom removed from sheep unless they pose a danger to the animal.
