The rams (and pony) have a new home-built shelter! It has been in the plans for a couple of years and is finished and ready for use. The pony was the first to try it out and I doubted for awhile if any rams would actually get to use it. I have seen sheep droppings in it although no sheep yet. In the mid-late 90's when I only had a couple of rams and we had no pony, the rams had a calf hut for shelter and the ram flock has been without since the numbers outgrew the hut. In really bad weather I have brought the rams in a few times a year since they are upland a bit and in the wind. Jim built it and it is on skids so it can be moved.
