===Biography===
[[Percy (T&F)|Percy]] once encountered the ram on the line, but his [[Firemen (T&F)|fireman]] lured him away with some cabbage. When Percy arrived at [[Maithwaite]], one of the [[Stationmasters (T&F)#The Maithwaite Stationmasters|stationmaster]] stated that the ram had a knack for always being hungry. When Maithwaite was vandalised, some [[Children (T&F)#The Station-damaging Boys|boys]] were held hostage in the waiting room by the ram who was thought to have caused the damage but was actually trying to stop the boys from causing anything more, as Percy's [[Drivers (T&F)|driver]] and one of the stationmasters found out. At Maithwaite's "Best Dressed Station" ceremony, [[Sir Topham Hatt (T&F)|Sir Topham Hatt]] gave the ram a pumpkin as a reward, but his top hat was blown off by [[Harold (T&F)|Harold]] and quickly eaten by the ram.

===Biography===
When Farmer McColl's sheep started lambing one winter day, he required a [[Minor Human Characters (T&F)#The Vet|vet]] and [[Duck (T&F)|Duck]] was sent to take the vet to McColl Farm.

When [[Thomas (T&F)|Thomas]] was taking chickens to market, sheep to McColl Farm and [[Children (T&F)#The Dark Uniformed Children|children]] to [[The School|school]], he accidentally told the [[Farmers (T&F)|farmers]] at [[Wellsworth (T&F)|Wellsworth]] to unload the sheep at the market instead of the chickens, due to his lack of sleep, and the sheep caused a ruckus at the market.

Stafford once scared the sheep with his makeshift whistle noise when he was sent to collect them, but luckily he found them.

When [[Percy (T&F)|Percy]] was taking Farmer McColl's new spring lambs and ewes to a spring fair at [[Maithwaite]], he accidentally damaged the [[Livestock Wagons (T&F)|livestock wagon]] and the lambs and ewes escaped when he was travelling down the line, however, Thomas' crew picked them up and they delivered them to the fair onboard [[Annie and Clarabel (T&F)|Annie and Clarabel]].

}}'''Percy''' is a newborn lamb that is owned by [[Farmer McColl (T&F)|Farmer McColl]].

===Biography===
[[Percy (T&F)|Percy]] once took one of Farmer McColl's ewes to a vet's house during a rainstorm, as the ewe was about to give birth, however, while on the way, Percy had to stop due to a landslide blocking the line. Farmer McColl ran off to get the vet and Percy's [[Drivers (T&F)|driver]] comforted the ewe until she gave birth to two lambs. Farmer McColl and the vet then arrived and the vet examined the two lambs, which he both determined as being healthy. After Farmer McColl thanked Percy and his driver, he picked up one of the lambs and stated that he was going to name the lamb "Percy", much to the tank engine's delight.
