[Jacob-list] EEK! Will they RAM the house??

[Wolfhoundwoods]

YIkes! My husband and I are still discussing the pros and cons of getting a
few (3) jacob sheep. We were talking about fencing and suddenly he said,
"Will they RAM THE HOUSE?"....

Now the way we had it planned until he came up with this rather important
question was that some of the area they will be "mowing" is adjacent to the
house....(and some windows that are head/horn height)

So the question is - will they ram the house and/or the barn? Will they look
in the windows and try to ram the "other sheep" there like the current
suicidal cardinal who has been ramming the glass for a month non-stop...

Keep in mind that they will have tons of rocks and trees to ram to their
hearts content - they won't just be in a treeless open pasture but rather in
a wooded lot with lots of grass and trees and rocks and weeds and blackberry
bushes and grapevines and all that scrubby stuff.

Do they tend to be perverse and choose the garage doors or the windows if
available or would they tend to avoid the house?

Can they fitted with invisible fence collars like dogs?

ALso, do they eat the bark off trees like deer? Or just ram it off....


Thanks in advance for any input on this rather important question. I would
rather have considered this stuff and fenced in advance than end up with a
damaged sheep or house....

(the house is brick but the garage doors are metal)
