Bold Cold
The sheep are not deterred by snow; we’ve had them sleeping on it - when they could have retreated inside a barn; one ewe even birthed her lamb out on the snow several winters ago. So to convince the sheep to take a little shelter, we put hay bales under their open-sided pole barn (instead of out in the field as usual). The sheep certainly show interest in munching the hay. If the weather prediction holds, on Tuesday we will see if they stay under roof during snow!
