I am thinking about raising haggis.

Can anyone give me some hints on how to take care of them?

If its the one i am thinking of, its something us scots made up to make haggis sound intresting & funnny. Its oats and some other stuff mixed together not an actual animal. Sorry to dissapoint you.

Ah, well, you need to cater for the fact that the legs on one side are shorter than the others to allow for the running round hills thing. Oh, and they’re covered in ginger hair…

Yeah, Loudoun’s right. It’s made from all the bits of sheep that haven’t been used (liver etc), oats, onions, suet all stuffed in a sheep’s stomach and steamed. You can get vegetarian ones, which are rather nice actually!

Rules of Haggis Care from Haggis.com

Haggis must be given single malt whisky at all times - 3 x a day.
Haggis have only 2 names Jeannie for female and Rab for male
Haggis must not be taken to school - as we know they bite
Haggis must not be sent to America - they have special Haggis security there
Haggis cannot fly 0 Americans made up this myth
Oh and Brigadoon is not a real place
Sorry for shattering that illusion

Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o the puddin’-race!
Aboon them a’ ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy of a grace
As lang’s my arm.

The groaning trencher there ye fill,
Your hurdies like a distant hill,
Your pin wad help to mend a mill
In time o need,
While thro your pores the dews distil
Like amber bead.

His knife see rustic Labour dight,
An cut you up wi ready slight,
Trenching your gushing entrails bright,
Like onie ditch;
And then, O what a glorious sight,
Warm-reekin, rich!

Then, horn for horn, they stretch an strive:
Deil tak the hindmost, on they drive,
Till a’ their weel-swall’d kytes belyve
Are bent like drums;
The auld Guidman, maist like to rive,
‘Bethankit’ hums.

Is there that owre his French ragout,
Or olio that wad staw a sow,
Or fricassee wad mak her spew
Wi perfect sconner,
Looks down wi sneering, scornfu view
On sic a dinner?

Poor devil! see him owre his trash,
As feckless as a wither’d rash,
His spindle shank a guid whip-lash,
His nieve a nit:
Thro bloody flood or field to dash,
O how unfit!

But mark the Rustic, haggis-fed,
The trembling earth resounds his tread,
Clap in his walie nieve a blade,
He’ll make it whissle;
An legs an arms, an heads will sned,
Like taps o thrissle.

Ye Pow’rs, wha mak mankind your care,
And dish them out their bill o fare,
Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware
That jaups in luggies:
But, if ye wish her gratefu prayer,
Gie her a Haggis!
