Crossword Genius

Take advantage of sound sheep (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ewes

'sheep' is the definition.
(a ewe is a female sheep)

'take advantage of sound' is the wordplay.
'take advantage' becomes 'use' (I've seen this in another clue).
'of sound' shows a homophone (sound like) (I've seen 'sound' mean this).
'use' sounds like 'EWES'.

(Other definitions for ewes that I've seen before include "She-sheep" , "Females in the flock" , "wool producers" , "Sheep (females)" , "Adult sheep" .)
