Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HerdLinq at none against GESDATE Sheep's 2. HerdLinq also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.6). GESDATE Sheep's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
