Hmm, odd

I'm pretty sure the way it works is they have to be off screen[ish] for some time before they break out on their own

Thanks for playing though!

[also, haven't played it yet but I watched one of our group members play your game and it was gorgeous!]

Same sort of thing happened for me, but only the purple sheep ever escaped, and the blue one I had to use the bell on three times in row, it wouldn't even wait for me to get off screen before he became ornery again. The rest of the sheep did nothing.

Hey! So yeah, the sheep escape when the player has spent  sufficient time away from the pens. In the heat of the moment and not wanting it to be too difficult, with like 5 mins pre-deadline, I cranked up the time the player has to spend away for a sheep to just naturally escape without being let out by another. It was a large oversight looking back at it but another lesson learned perhaps. Thank you so much for playing! Best of luck!
