Do sheep not bond to/recognize their owner? I would 100% understand a ram trying to headbutt a vet or ferrier, but it's crazy to me they would quite literally bite the hand that feeds them too!

They become extremely territorial. Especially during mating season!!

Informative, but have to say this was a very submissive ram. Mine doesn't just stand there for you to walk up to him, and once you have his head he's pulling back fast, trying to get away. EDIT: Note that I'm a novice at this, only had sheep for the past two years. My first ram was very aggressive but easier to work with because he didn't resist once you got him down. My current ram is very well mannered, has never tried to butt me (although I never turn my back) but he will resist, kick, squirm, etc. anytime you try to do anything with him.

Our ram isn’t that docile either. And the halter causes a hissy fit. It’s not always that straight forward…

Thank you, I found this extremely useful/informative. If only I'd seen it before now but it explains well and I can show it to some of the fans of my "cute little whether". Cute he is not but it is hard to convince people that less is more when it comes to handling male sheep - whethers or not. I like the clarity of the tipping demonstration you gave. Now I have to practice that. ;-)

I'm so thankful to see this. We are beginner sheepherders and have three rams that have so far show little agression (actually only one has so far) my husband loves to pet them and scratch thier heads and necks even though I have warned him of the risks. I hope he will watch this and take it to heart, I'd hate to see either of us injured. Thanks again for this excellent video.
