American Toby Jug Museum 

Lamb toby jug produced by W. Goebel Porzellanfabrik of Bavaria, Germany, circa 1960. Sheep are domesticated, ruminant mammals typically kept as livestock. Although the term sheep can apply to other species in the genus Ovis, in everyday usage it almost always refers to domesticated sheep. Numbering a little over one billion, domestic sheep are also the most numerous species of sheep. An adult female is referred to as a ewe, an intact male as a ram, a castrated male as a wether, and a young sheep as a lamb. The sheep's tail forms the handle of the jug.
