Beth- how are the sheep hurdles attached to each other- is it done with cable ties?

What would be your thoughts on these- just for kidding- my thoughts were- maybe too small and maybe the mum likes to see other mums?

Or this!!?- bigger, taller, bucket things!! ...maybe a wee window could be cut out so mums could see each other. Think I might be getting carried away now...

Frustratedfarmer- the hurdles are generally held together with metal pins that slot the hurdles together. But- if we sometimes have a pen adjusted, then yes, we do use the wonderful invention of cable ties!

I have inherited a solway recycling chicken shelter- I have to say I am quite impressed with how sturdy their stuff is.
