in addition to our chickens and pygmy goats, we have 3 Texas Barbados sheep coming tomorrow. Never had sheep don't know a lot about them. Anyone out there have any Barbados sheep and advice?

You are going to feed them separately from the goats right?
All I know about sheep is,They cant have goat feed due to the copper in it.Its very toxic to them.

I don't have sheep but post pics when you get them,have fun.

yeah we have them in seperate pastures and most certainly feed them seperately. they do make a feed with no added copper for both sheep and goats. haven't tried it, for now I use seperate feeds. thanks for the warning however!
