I've had my sheep for about four years now. I've raised her since she was a lamb. She lived with two large boar goats. One had a tendency to headbutt. They passed sadly and now it's just her on the pasture. In the past six months she has begun to head butt me when I don't give her feed. The place where she's now staying is now up for sale. I found a perfect new place but I don't want her to headbutt the kind people at the new home or the other animals. She doesn't do it very often but how do I stop her from headbutting and rearing up. I first thought she was being playful because she was living alone. When I take her to the vet or around other people she does not headbutt. She has not spent much time with other animals or people. Is there anything I can do and should I be concerned. So far saying no walking away and showing her a halter has worked but I want it to stop all together. Thank you farm family.
