Anything Acres

[birchl]

Thank you very much. It looks like we maybe could support a couple of lambs. Most of this ½ acre is now a mix of grasses, orchids and ferns. I have attempted to landscape around existing plants and most has been hand cleared. this now all requires weed-whacking as the ground is to uneven for a mower. For such a small space I seem to produce endless amounts of grass cuttings, culled bamboo orchids and uluhe. Although cut grass makes good compost the other two are simply overwhelming. Presumably sheep would eat the grass but could I supplement it with orchids? Can you really just have a couple of baa baa lambs just roaming about the place? For the life of me I can't see why not. they would be happy sheep I think. We are about to put a fence around this bit. Not a high fence mind you, just something to keep the dogs in. Doesn't sound like that will work with a goat. When we get the fence we can convert the dog-house into a something-else house. It is pretty much a ready made coop. 10 x 10 with a hand built floor to ceiling wooden shelving Unit. There is a fenced 10 x 10 run in front of the dog-house. The down side us that it is right next door to my cabin. At the moment it is wafts of ginger or gardenia that catch my nose. I am given to understand that rooster noise is somewhat controllable though.
