It's almost winter time you need to make sure you have enough sheep for wool socks and lamb chops. Herd the sheep keep them in the yard. Other stuff on the farm: 1. Carrots - sheep will stop and eat delicious carrots wherever they find them. 2. Barn - get the sheep into the barn and they will be safe and take some time off the clock to. 3. Mushrooms - Ummm the sheep will get drunk if they eat the mushrooms. You should probably avoid them to, since you have a job to do. 4. Wolves - Wolves like lamb chops to, a lot. Keep the sheep away from the wolves if you can't they will be eaten and more time added to the clock.
