Eh? What are you on about? Where did I say anything about your sheep breeds?
You were the one that talked about sheep running away then coming back. If you choose to run sheep in that system that's your choice. It's not mine. I have Spring work to do and Spring calving cows and I don't want to waste time watching ewes run away from lambs to come back again.
I described my two separate flocks, one doing the 'running away' thing and one the opposite. As I pointed out, I would not consider those 'running away' genetics in the dam side of a commercial flock. I am busy on other Spring work over lambing too, so I wouldn't tolerate anything that runs away from it's lambs either.
My point was that it has nothing to do with whether I walk through them regularly or use a quad, the difference is in the genetics/breed.
