John captured this video while moving the sheep the other day. We move our sheep to fresh grass every 3-5 days. This process is called: rotational grazing, and you can read more about it on my husband's Blog post here. I love watching the sheep go into a new paddock. I also love, in this video, how the completely disappear into the thick of the grass. This process allows them to get fresh food and to not be in their own poop for very long at all. We have NEVER had to supplementally feed our sheep. And we have NEVER had to give our sheep ANY medicines for things that many farm animals get because they are in such close quarters with each other and their poop for too long.
This video ... makes me happy.
