I brought in 100 Suffolks and 50 Dorsets, a by keeping the female offspring I'm now now at just about 200 breeding ewes (right hand paddock aka The Orchard Field) and aiming for 250. Males get moved when a few months old into the new paddock (left - open paddock mod)) that is part of an existing grass field and sold off a year later at peak price time. (Modders - possible to make an 'invisble' livestock transport, holds 100-200 sheep, had a figure with a stick and dog at the back and moves at 3mph... make my sheep handling sooo much easier over short distances )
Had to add some new fencing - netting or 'pig wire' as known to some, the sheep farmers friend. (Modders - my dream livestock add on: make me buy a fence post 'bumper' wire and posts and then let me using those allow me to mark out 'fence off' a paddock out an exiting grass field or even a radish aka turnip field and place sheep in there to graze...)
Finally made the switch to round bales - see stack in yard , their is tarpaulin to cover the top, fear not, with a Claas of the era. I'm now baling my own straw but the contractor loads and shifts it , I may go back to a contractor as I grow and if not enough tractor time around.

FYI I was going to do a update of the 135 but i heard PeterJ is working on it instead (his version will be much better)
