Joanne-
A more precise measure would be a birth date field. I assume a "lamb" becomes a "sheep" at a certain age. If you use a value like FlockID, the "boundary" between lamb and sheep keeps moving because of the forward march of time. If you need logic to distinguish lambs from sheep, you would need to keep manually changing the FlockID value that determines the boundary.

That made me think --- why do I need a flag? That's when I realized that I had instinctively created a flag by skipping to
using FLOCK.ID numbers that started at high numbers which I am using to sort and filter. In addition I have location of birth
I can sort/filter on.
Thanks Joanne
