Winter SHEEP SUPPLEMENTATION with No Grain | Winter Sheep Farming on Pasture

[@adammz08]

hay rings are great, just keep moving it each bale,so as to spread the waste hay over the containment area.

Letting the sheep trample the hay down will help improve your pasture as long as you get enough rain 👍

We kind of do it the opposite. We feed grain but don't feed hay in the winter. Granted the cake, grain mix we use is about 50% alfalfa. I don't really understand the "no grain" trend except and unless, your customers are only interested in the 100% grassfed. (Well I should clarify, we don't feed hay unless it is -20 and there is two feet of snow.)

Yeah I understand what you mean with the no grain. We are trying to take the approach of low inputs with our sheep which is why I put that in the title. I'm always amazing at how there are so many different ways to raise sheep and cattle. It's all about what works best for your situation and operation.
