Yes, you can but it should be composted manure, which takes at least 6 months. Also, I see conflicting reports as to the amount of nitrogen in sheep manure, but it also depends on what the sheep eat, moisture content, etc. If you are buying it commercially composted, the nutrient content should be listed.

Here is more information about using sheep manure:
