Can Sheep Eat Tree Leaves. Sheep prefer leafy, soft hay as opposed to coarser hay. does anyone intentionally grow trees or shrubs so you can cut the branches to feed your sheep? Since the trees are very digestible, they are a suitable food source but not for very long, unless fibre is. our camelids love to eat leaves in moderation (currently eucalyptus and mulberry) and even though the trees have lower branches pruned some of our sheep probably can reach lower branches. sheep can regulate their own intake when on pasture and can spend up to 12 hours grazing per day. like goats, sheep will eat tree leaves and tips. They tend to do well on timothy hay, orchard hay, bluegrass, and oat hay. I was planning on keeping them away from the ripe fruit but not sure about leaves. When adequate pasture is not available, a quality hay is the best substitute. Thus far, we’ve observed them consuming willow, peach and plum.
