Hi!
We recently built a new sheep house. I attached plywood for the walls, with some 1.5" x 3" studs. Everything was fine for several weeks and then...
About one week ago, we began to be woken up nearly every night with super loud banging noises. Security video footage revealed the culprit...our American Blackbelly ram was violently smashing his head into the wall of the sheep pen.
After 2-3 days of this non-sense, he managed to smash the plywood right off the studs...man, not cool at all!
I have some questions...
1. Is this normal?
2. Why does he do it?
3. Should I expect this behavior to continue?
Last, I was planning on wrapping a 2"x6" planking all around the sheep pen at the ram's head's height.
Anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks,
Soar
