| We see this alot at fairs in our area, run your lambs especially in sand, this will really make them work and really adds the muscle.

How do you do the sand for running....fill a pen or a alley way with sand?
Thanks

| The people that I have seen do it have a paddock with sand, but I guess if you wanted to fill an area full of sand that would work also. Maybe doing a pile of sand and make them run up it and run down it over time the sand will flatten out so that you will have an area to run your lambs. Even making them run up a hill without sand should work.
