Another excellent video. A proper, blood and sh*t insight into the real hard graft ,24/07 365 farming. Sheep farming. Fascinating to watch your amazingly skilled vet and you deliver the three lambs. Animal behavior too! Those horns could take an eye out! Gentle sheep! My a***! Thanks again, your filming and editing spot on. Great insight into a proper, real family farm and business. Brilliant! And hopefully less rain and warmer weather will help. And you might actually get some sleep! 👍👍
Laughing at cross sheep when I was child I knew all our sheep and cousins would come to visit they would want to hold lambs. I used to get them to pick up the cross sheep's lamb s😊 and protest my innocence but dad knew I knew well what would happen. 😂
I just found you guys 😊I enjoyed the video. I watch Sandi Brock in eastern Canada 🇨🇦 she raises sheep as well very educational but she’s been on for yrs has over a million subs. Love from Canadian nana,western Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
What a great video enjoyed watching a lot of hard work looking after all of the sheep your doing an amazing job looking forward to seeing more videos on lambing Thank you
Wow, great video. I have never seen a Lamb C Section before on video. I would think they have to tranquilize the sheep but they must numb the area to do the operation. Lambing season must be very hard, with many sleepless nights and fighting with all the rain this year. With Triplet lambs, do you usually need to bottle feed some? I didn't know that Ewe's have horns, must be different varieties that do?
Actually its normal behaviour. She is protecting her babies. But also the breed of sheep can also determine what their behaviour can be towards what they perceive as a threat.

do you find that C section ewes survive? I worked on a farm that had a vet do one and it died of infection quickly after. Now when I need to do one I kill the ewe with a bolt gun stunner and cut the lambs out in the 7 seconds her heart keeps going. Kind of gnarly, but in our area a vet costs more than a the best ewe, and we aren't wealthy. Had a nasty bit of ring woom in our ewe lambs and have done 4 this year. Two in one day when lambing had just started. The plan is I'm going to try and get more calcium into them to prevent it in the future and all the ewe lambs I did c sections to save will not be bred.
Our vet does a C section for £120, the lambs will sell for meat at about £120 in 9 months. Worst case, you break even and may even sink £20-£50 of feed into the lamb. Best case, you sell it for breeding. Mean while, you save the ewe from having a lamb ripped out and her insides torn up, also saving her for many more years of lambing of which we can control the feed and grass.
You know your situation best. Talk with your neighbors and see what they're doing. But generally dying from an infection after the c-section isn't that common unless they were not doing well to begin with. A healthy ewe in a clean pen for 2-3 days should bounce back pretty well. If it's younger, that's an investment in it's future production. If it's older, maybe a little less justifiable. If you know she's not going to make it, putting it down is what you've got to do. But otherwise, saving the breeder is always going to be the better option.
@@robertabblebaum7813 interesting. Somehow I missed you alls good comments, but he like mine and now I see the post again. We have a vet shortage and they’re crazy expensive. They come from far away and charge heavy for travel. What you do is better , but I will have to continue to do what I do, and hopefully do it less as I’m doing a better job with minerals. I’d never seen ring womb until last year, and I’d also had trouble finding decent hay due to drought, so I think there was several contributing factors Thank you

Oh wow out of all of the sheep videos I’ve seen over the years I’ve never seen a sheep so mean, please stay safe 😊
Proper sheep
Actually its normal behaviour. She is protecting her babies. But also the breed of sheep can also determine what their behaviour can be towards what they perceive as a threat.
Found you through The Sheep Game. Looking forward to following you through lambing and beyond.
Cheers. I'll try improve the videos. Only starting out
Great video 👍
Thanks Stephen
I have just found your videos
Maybe use a plastic bottle so you could squeeze the bottle.
Interesting
👍
Use a thing called a teat dipper here the last few years for navels great job ,cover all up to the belly
Many don’t know that Iodine fast get useless as you have open the bottle, especially if you poor it in other bottles. It’s better to use the bluespray
Thanks so much 👍 will try that

No point getting calcium in them unless you have magnesium levels where they should be, it won’t be absorbed.
