In Castle Valley we came across this very large herd of sheep. There was a pullover, so we did that. Part of the herd was inside the fence and part was on the outside. I hope that got resolved.

I read here, "Through an agency, he hired a Peruvian shepherd, Ronal Leon Parejas, who is still with him." “You put a small flock out, but you can’t get labor,” said Stubbs, who raises his flock for both wool and meat. A herder has to stay with the sheep 24 hours a day through the roughly 10-month period on the open range, in sun and rain, hail and snow, whether temperatures climb toward 100 degrees or drop below zero. The workday begins at sunup and ends at sundown, although there may be nights when you need to help the guard dogs scare off a coyote or a mountain lion. There are no weekends or holidays off.

Sheep, though requiring more care, were potentially more profitable than cattle because they returned a double crop of wool and lambs. Here is a very interesting history of livestock to Utah starting around the mid 1800s.
