Is this the movie I'm trying to remember?


I have vague memories of a western I only saw part of when I was a kid. I know it had sheep in it and a female lead. At the end the woman may or may not be getting together with a comical male character who demands that she give him ten sons. If she wants a daughter or two that would be okay with him, just as long as he gets his ten sons.

I'm not sure the ending I'm remembering is consistent with a film with a feminist bend to it, but from the description, this has a) a woman lead, b) sheep and c) the west, so I thought it was a fair possibility.

I'm watching it now, there is Doris Day who is the lead and she does buy sheep to get some money and this causes outrage as she is farming in cattle country. Yes it is a western.
