With a house?£15 an hour if he can be left to get on with it
What do you think a good one is worth per hour?
On the edge of being ok I think. It’s asking a lot of someone to commit 6 days 7 at lambing and give up time with their family.£12 plus the house. What would it be 50 hours a week? That’s 30k plus the house
I’m no expert. When my dad was shepherding he always kept 50 ewes of his own in the flock as a bonus. Did didn’t have to pay anything to keep them but wasn’t aloud to go over 50. I meant mum and us kids helped a lot at lambs because we thought we where looking after our holiday money.On the edge of being ok I think.

I often wonder if just enough always ends up being nowhere near
It depends on what you expect them do do as well. If they are just shepherd then it’s an easy job in the summer but if you expect them to go corn carting as well then that changes a lot.On the edge of being ok I think.

I think that would be a good idea , keeps them interested and go the extra mile when they have involvement in the job,I’m no expert.

Mixed in with the rest of the sheep so there are 5/10 ewes in each group. Other wise the shepherd might tend to spend more time on his group.I think that would be a good idea , keeps them interested and go the extra mile when they have involvement in the job,
That would bring the overall wage down I bit to on paper, but may look more attractive overall

What size flock out of curiosity?I may have to employ a full time shepherd soonish and was wondering what’s the going rate atm.
house with job, needs own good dogs, 6 day week. I think they are usually underpaid?
What size flock out of curiosity?
Got to 9000 if they are going to pay for the £52k flock.About 5000 ewes if it's going to generate enough profit to pay a shepherd £30k plus a house.
