Man shared house with 77 sheep
"Sheep owner makes court appearance

By Michael Biesecker and Toby Coleman
APEX - The suburban shepherd who shared his downtown Apex house with 77 sheep spent the night in jail Tuesday and made his first court appearance this afternoon on 30 counts of cruelty to animals.

David Watts, wearing jail-issue gray and white stripes, was brought before Wake District Court Judge Jane Gray. His attorney, Josh Hansen, asked the judge to release Watts under his own supervision pending trial."

...

"As Watts was led from the courtroom, another inmate awaiting a turn before the judge loudly bleated like a sheep, earning Gray's ire."

I've heard of little old ladies keeping dozens and dozens of cats, but sheep? How do you even fit 77 sheep into a suburban house?
