That's fantastic! We only have a few acres, or I'd consider at least a few sheep. I really enjoy your posts. Know that I pray for my favorite Linden Family!!!!
Thank you so much! It's taken us 5 years to make it this far and we have dreams to go farther! Thank you for the sub and I hope you will stick around for our journey. We have tried to show everything from the beginning of our fencing, building our barns, growing our flock, cutting our hay, etc. I know our earlier videos the audio and video quality were rougher but we have better cameras and sound quality on our newer videos to make it easier to watch and help others learn from our mistakes!
@@FreedomFarmsMo Your videos look great to me! Much better than my cellphone shakers. 😀 Your farm does look amazing and I can see all the hard work you've put in. I wish you all the best, never quit dreaming!
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying the channel! Our flock is made up of katahdins mostly, with a couple mix breed dorper katahdins, and a couple misfit that were rescue situations. Currently we do not sell breeding stock as we are keeping all of our ewe lambs every year until we grow to 350 ewes we are almost halfway there at 160 ewes currently. Once we reach that milestone we will begin to sell breeding stock.
We made them ourselves. Our waste is minimal. We went from needing 1 bale per ewe for 3 months of feeding when we use to unroll bales in the pasture, to when we moved in the barn and wrapped bales with cattle panels using 1/2 bale a ewe, to now with our feeders we made we use less than 1/3 a bale a ewe for the same 3 month time frame.
That's fantastic!

Excellent information, can't get enough of your content. What is the genetic makeup of your flock and do you sell breeding stock 🤔.

Thanks for your quick response, hope you realize your goals quickly.
Thank you!
How do you like those round hay feeders? Any idea what % the sheep waste with them?
We made them ourselves. Our waste is minimal. We went from needing 1 bale per ewe for 3 months of feeding when we use to unroll bales in the pasture, to when we moved in the barn and wrapped bales with cattle panels using 1/2 bale a ewe, to now with our feeders we made we use less than 1/3 a bale a ewe for the same 3 month time frame.
Looking good
Thank you!
