Aside from being the only Jacob we have who will come up and grab a treat from anyone who shows up with a box of treats, Tabitha's main claim to fame is her horns.
Jacobs are a polycerate breed, meaning they have multiple horns. For the breed standard they have to have at least two horns, but they can have up to six. Tabitha has five. They aren't show worthy horns, but they've served her pretty well and have the scars to show for it.
Looking at the first picture it appears that she only has three horns, but here's a better view. There are actually two nearly fused upright horns on the top of her head along with another upright and two lateral horns, one on each side.
She's not afraid to use those horns and while the sticking up horns aren't good for direct punching, she can give you a bottom hook and flip or a top down smack. She's not a mean sheep, but she's also the only Jacob we have that can battle her way to the front of the cookie mosh pit ;-).
