Before I put my ewes on our maize stubbles that were combined yesterday, is there anything detremental to the health of our sheep by grazing them ?

No no problem, they might be a bit loose though if there's a bit of forager over shoot here and there which there usually is.
but they will be fine and like it, a grass or greened up stubble run back would be best as well.
