[QUOTE="Crofter64, post: 5281424, member: 87060"] Same experience here. I did a major cull a few years back, set out criteria for keepers and try to stick with it. I find that keeping a couple of bottle fed ewes that trust you does a lot for calming the flock .The trusting ones don’t flee and come when called. Always helpful. I had a North Country Cheviot ram for a few years and kept many of his daughters. That is when my flock went bonkers - everyone fleeing for their lives whenever they caught sight of a human.They are almost all gone now, happily. [/QUOTE]
