Some sheep tips:

* Sheep move like a herd (when they are comfortable.) They will try to stay together rather than wander off on their own. If they are stressed they will scatter and good luck getting them back together again.
* Sheep can be pretty smart, but that works against them. For instance, if you try to herd them, and they figure out where you want them to go, they'll go the opposite way.
* You can lead sheep and they will follow. I rotate my sheep twice daily to fresh pasture and they follow me around (at a distance.) The Bible has some interesting notes on good shepherds and hirelings.
* Here in NE Texas, I lost a lot of sheep in winter. Hay isn't enough for them, or maybe my hay was bad. I'm thinking of feeding them over winter, more than just protein supplement. I don't know what to do actually. When I figure it out I'll let you all know.
