Shelter Essentials for a Sheep Flock Barn
Prof EH Hackedorn of Missouri College of Agriculture outlines key shelter goals for breeding flocks. He recommends 10 to 12 square feet per sheep, a dry floor, good roof, ample fresh air, avoid drafts, wide doors, and sufficient feeding trough space. A shed 26 to 80 feet wide and as long as needed works well with south opening and a north feed trough. Movable racks increase rack economy, and a five foot loft provides winter hay storage. if loose hay is used, loft space should be larger.
