Question 1133069: My barn is only 20 feet wide and 10 feet long. It has 5 stables for my horses, all the same size. I only have one barn for now, so I will have to make changes to have room the new sheep I will have. I only have 4 horses, so I can make knock down the wall in one of the stables and have a space that is eight feet long and 10 feet wide. This should be enough for the two sheep.
