Maybe we've just been lucky with ours then but we run them on a big area of lowland moor so they can rake about where ever they like.We’ve had herdwick draft ewes in the past, grand sheep. Put too the texel and kept plenty of ewe lambs back. The last bunch I had wouldn’t stop anywhere, they were that busy rambling they wasted their lambs too nothing. When I shut them up too settle them they just stopped eating. That was the final straw, they all went on the fat and I never bothered replacing them.
It's pretty much like where they've come from - only 1000' lower, hardly ever snows and doesn't rain half as much. I guess they just think they've died and gone to heaven
