I notice there was not much response to the thread:

"Bloomin sheep eating my blooms"

There is nothing in the FAQ on sheep, plenty on Cats, but Cats don't
eat your garden up. Are there any other suggestions out there on how a
gardener may keep his plants safe from sheep ?.

again, which plants do they dislike (or like)

mint, they have a strong aversion to mint

That only applies to British lambs, surely? I suspect the sheep are
terrifed of capers.



how high can they jump

any other suggestions, barbed wire fences, machine guns ?

netting is normally adequate, probably topped with a row of barbed wire

even for herdwicks?
