What would the square foot space be per ewe in a drop pen. How many would you put in this drop pen.
What is the square footage for the creep feeder for the lambs.

In a drop pen I would want at least 20'. The more you give them the
less time you need to be there to prevent mismothering.
In a creep feeder you should have at least 1-2' per lamb with about
2" of feeder space per lamb.
