I don't know if anyone else feeds treats to there sheep or lambs . We have
found that our sheep really enjoy bread but find that if lambs are not
raised eating it with mom they don't usually take to it. But I have several
bottle babies that have found that they love round nacho chips. Just the
Vanilla Wafers! Probably not the most healthy thing for them, but ours sure
loved them.

Rams that share a fence, especially if there are ewes on either side of the
fence, will demolish a fence. Having their own gals isn't sufficient. Each
ram wants ALL the gals. I create a neutral zone of at least 25-50 feet
when I am forced to put ewes and rams within visual range of each other.
Sharon, to what do you attribute not having a single dominant/aggressive
ram in your flock? Do they rotate their pecking order when reunited? You
have so much more experience than I do with rams -- I only have three, and
because the senior ram has always been the dominant ram, any new rams are

figure the amount based on the weight. Ivermectrin is hard to really
overdose.. Injectable is supposed to be given under the skin, But I have
used a short needle and injected it however I could when I had to worm 100
