This document provides guidelines for housing sheep, including structure types, dimensions, ventilation, and facilities. It recommends housing sheep in well-ventilated structures located downwind from homes on elevated, drained land. Housing needs vary by climate, season, and management preferences, but most operations require facilities to store feed, bedding, and equipment. Proper space allowances and ventilation are outlined for different types of animals. Feeding racks, troughs, mineral feeders, and water troughs should also be provided. Maintaining clean facilities helps prevent disease.
