Thought these were sheep, but the coat and color doesn't look like a normal sheep. Are they a different breed, or something else like a goat?

They're domesticated, were in a fenced field and when I stopped to take the photo they simply looked at me for a minutes then returned to munching grass.

I'm no expert, but maybe "badger face" sheep? Or Cameroon?

Timmo's right, they're badger-faced sheep.

David, "ram" is a generic term for a male sheep, not a breed.
 
Thanks guys! They looked enough like mountain goats that I thought they were cool. The fellow has a Llama too, so I'm not surprised these are a bit different than normal sheep.
