Sheep Feed Barrier Space Allowance

[Newby]

I have 100 ft of Sheep Feed Barrier just wondered if anyone knew how many medium sized ewes it would serve?

What are you feeding. We feed ad lib tmr to ewes and at start of lambing put 140 to 40ft of feed fence that's enough to feed a quarter of them at a time but the feed needs to be there and fresh 24/7 religiously or there will be problems

I didn't think of that, I'm not feeding a TMR will just be feeding nuts along length of it

The barrier is already up with troughs full length, I just wondered what the "guidelines" on space were
