What's a average size shed?

 

[Timbo]

£2-3 per sq ft

 

[Fendt516profi]

£2-3 per sq ft

60x30 = £3600 - £5400
£72 - £108 per head don't think there'll be much profit in the sheep

Not really the fault of the shed owner though ? Commercial rents would be double that.

Never done it before don’t know how to go about it

40x20 square feet for 50 ewes. 6 lambing pens, bigger pen for bonding and another area for storing stuff maybe another 20x20 total 1200 square feet.
Depends if ig just a hay shed with water or a custom built pad fully kitted out with mod cons. If basically a roof then offer so much per head per week, remembering that after 3 weeks you should have 60% outside. Start at £1/ewe/week for 8 weeks. Total £400.
Rental of £3 /foot I would want it for a year.

You might not have, just make sure you buy some sheep that have done it before, lamb in April when there is grass and the sheep do it automatically!!

It has bugger all to do with economics. You need to find an owner of a shed who supports what you are doing. Good luck with that.
