Why Rideau Sheep?

[@canadianguy1090]

thank you for the video, i noticed a lot of open pasture grazing and not so many temporary fencing, is this a preferred method? i am considering a start up and will be looking at more of your videos.

[@rideausheep]

our paddocks are around 4 acres made with Gallagher high tensile fencing and the whole farm is surrounded with 5 strand fence. When we have a lot of growth we will use a temporary real with 2 strands of polly wire and push in posts to divide the paddock in half.

The carcass have long loins and low fat with good colour and decent muscling the carcasses are all very consistent at 26kg dressed wt. or 50kg (110 lbs) live wt. achieved in 110 days on a full grain diet.
