Brilliant set up David! So adaptable & a clear span design when not being used for sheep can allow for machinery storage & workshop as you suggest. Your payback for lambs saved is indeed justification for the shed's costings if only others looked at it in this light.

Catching up on your videos as I missed a load. I love the way you chat about stuff, it feels like I'm just having a nice wee wonder about the farm with you, relaxing and so informative. I wonder if having the birds in keeps flies down? I'm wanting to have a smallholding myself (presuming no farmer falls madly in love with me & lets me raise sheep), and stuff like this is so helpful for helping work out what you need, even though it's much bigger than I'd need!

Will you be putting the lambing pens down the middle? that’s what we did. A bit more effort putting the feed around but very easy access to the lambing pens and easy to clean out thoroughly between occupants. We also made up dividing hurdles with a solid face which helped them mind their own business.

Thanks for the overview. Did you consider slatted flooring ( plastic or wooden) to save on bedding, healthier and easier to clean/ collect manure?
@sheepschool365
@sheepschool365 Год назад
I did consider slats but because I only house sheep for a short period (4-6 weeks) it would leave the shed unfit for other purposes.

Your presentations are so great and are paying it back by Sheep School. Are they in any way connected.? (Maybe answer on future video). We had the rain/snow mix in Oregon yesterday. At our farm we used to lamb in winter but with so many coyotes see less of this outside.
@sheepschool365

Thank you very much. Do you use guardian/protection dogs in Oregon? We have problems with foxes that can kill young lambs up to 10 days or so. Uncontrolled domestic dogs cause more trouble.

Great video and great set up ! If you put the second bar in front gates, you would have to remove it for meal feeding ewes so probably just as handy to put on the straps when feeding a few lambs What size are the pens ? Is there any falls on floors/run off collection if housing sheep for winter ?
@sheepschool365
