Hi and welcome Lisa,
 	We have one goat that runs with our sheep and yes, they are more
aggressive.  This one has to be penned up at feeding time.  When everyone
is out on pasture, they get along fine.
	One thing no one has mentioned with the chickens used for fly control is
the poop problem.  Don't the sheep get their fleeces dirty living with
chickens?  I'm really tempted to move our chickens in with the sheep after
reading all the comments, but I don't want to sacrifice the fleece quality
for a few less flies.
