Hi Cammy, I couldn't help but notice the handicap showing in Sean's pup.... his sweet little front-right leg seems "misaligned" from the rest of his limbs. Poor baby, I've no doubt he's well looked after, yet feel badly for him: please extend LOTS of TLC on my behalf, 'n hugs/kisses!! Many thanks!
Cammy thank you for taking us places that some of us would never be able to experience otherwise. Sean is such a sweet boy and I really enjoyed him explaining his set up and the reasoning behind it all. You my friend never disappoint…😊🐏🐑💙 #makingfarmingcoolagain
I really enjoyed this visit Cam! Watching you two together made me smile and enjoy the comradeship. Great sheep barns and healthy stock. It’s refreshing to see the younger generation taking responsibility and ownership of the family heritage . Delightful thank you.
Wow!! Those are some Quiet seep. Sean is like a sheep whisperer! 😂 Love the videos Cammy! The content has been amazing!❤️ Much love from Washington State.✌️
Fantastic. Sean appears to be a hard worker and great fella. Hope he is successful with his new farm and doll. Really hope if there is another series of this Farming Life that they can get him back
I really enjoy seeing the different farms. The Viking is fabulous, although I did have a lot of trouble understanding what he was saying!! Great scenery too.
This video was a delight to watch - informative & entertsining. Orkney is truly breathtakingly beautiful. Lizzie & you will get you're dream farm set-up & hopefully soon. 🙏 Wishing Sean & Emma all the very best of luck together & on their new farm. Hopefully we will see future updates of their new farm & the improvements to Laga Farm's sheep shed. All of you are truly living the dream & its fantastic to see. 👍❤👏
That’s awesome! What a great friendship between you two. Sean is an impressive shepherd! He is moving forward and always learning from his experience. So cool!
I enjoy watching these videos. 30+ years ago an Australian moved into our area and started a large sheep operation. I got to be good friends with him and watched the innovative ideas he brought in. After a few years he decided that the Australian model doesn't work so well in northern NY State. He told me to study what was happening in the UK instead. At the time our shearer was Billy Kinghorn from The Isle Of Arran who also wintered in Dorset. He was shearing in the US on a visitors visa and had to return to the UK every 4 months to renew his visa. I went with him on one of his trips to tag up and spent two weeks visiting sheep operations in England and Scotland as well as every pub between them. I learned a lot and implemented a lot of UK management ideas. Billy later got caught, arrested, and deported so it was good that I went while I could. That was a long time ago now so it is good to get an update on what is being done there now to copy.
I wish I could understand you better, but I love the lyrical language! I also love how you have so much laughter in your videos! I enjoyed this very much. Thanks Cammy!
Such a beautiful place! Thanks for taking us for an adventure! Such hard work, and it pays off in the long run. Not many people are willing to put in the time, and money for sheep farming.
Thank you for the tour, it's great to see different set ups and the different challenges other farms face. And I love hearing the difference in accent too!
Thoroughly enjoyed this look at another set up. Slats were interesting. Orkney views are spectacular. I found I understood almost everything which surprised me. What I didn't was more technical (not knowing what the terms meant) than not understanding the word.
To see y'all working so hard to make the lives of your sheep more comfortable is wonderful. I'm going to be honest even though Sean spoke slower than you Cammy I couldn't quite catch some of his words. But I had to look at his mouth quite a bit. I'm getting better though,👍🏾 BTW Does Sean know he is a pretty boy? 😏
Excellent video Cammy! I really enjoy the variety of subject matter you show in your videos. It's nice you give center stage to the other farmers and let them tell their stories. 👍
Awesome farm set up and enjoyed all the barn layout, feed, etc....well done Sean. Cammy really enjoy your videos. My Aunt raised North Country Cheviots here in Maine-USA.
Excellent video I really enjoyed seeing around Sean’s family farm they are a lovely family very hard working. I wish him and his girlfriend good luck on their new farm.
I want about 30 if those slat panels! I see so many possibilities! Great video. Thanks so much for covering this. Way more than I can afford, but extremely valuable I'm sure!
Without reading all the comments I don't know if this has been said....But housing your ewes for 3 months helps break the liver fluke cycle and you can dose your ewes with a non triclobendazol [sic] fluke dose. Hopefully this allows the fluke not to build up a resistance to it. Great to see.
@@gingerbaker4579 I was meaning as a general management strategy, getting the sheep off the ground for 3 months to break the fluke cycle, not geographically specific to the northern Isles.
@@struancochrane753 Fluke is a **chance** event. Not every cattle or sheep herd is going to get it. You need the right conditions, as any disease. So you're saying house one farmer's herd of sheep for 3 months & because their neighbors didn't house their own herds... fluke would just continue on year after year after year.
@@gingerbaker4579 Having farmed in SW Scotland I can assure you fluke isn't a chance event. The point I am trying to make, clearly badly, is that by having the sheep off grass for 6 weeks plus allows you to assume any flukicide you choose to use needs only to target mature fluke. Therefore you can steer clear of triclabendazole based products which targets early immature fluke as well. Studies have shown fluke can build up a resistance to triclabenazole, therefore being able to treat your flock using other products will help in the long run. This isn't a reason to put up an expensive shed, but if you house your sheep anyhow it has this added, albeit small, advantage in fluke prone areas, which tend to be areas of high rainfall and mild winters, like most of the west coast of Britain.
@@struancochrane753 You're missing the point, quite clearly. It's cheaper and more intelligent to limit the exposure to fluke - which is possible through proper field management - than it is to house sheep for 3 months. Which when to eliminate the fluke successfully with little chance of reinvestigation you need upwards of 5 to 6 months not 3. 3 months is a basic cycle under great conditions. Never mind as said given the way in which fluke and the snail host reproduce - in massive numbers - housing your own sheep is a pointless venture when next year the fluke and the snails will be in your backyard again due to neighbors.
Sean’s farm is a credit to all his family. The plastic slats may be be a big initial outlay but I am sure they will quickly pay for themselves. The one good thing about the outdoor trough having to be filled daily is that the sheep enjoy it fresh before it oxidises. I look forward to seeing them on This Farming Life. Sorry Cammy, you are handsome lad, but I can see why the young girls swoon over big Sean.
@@TheSheepGame Cammy did you know that the Vikings were not all the blond Germanic people we thought they were. In fact quite a mixture. There is also a fjord in Norway, cut off by the terrain where they are dark fiery, with a dialect difficult to understand and were known for settling scores with knives. Could have been from the crew of one of the Spanish Armada’s fleeing vessels. So Sean could have two sources of Spanish blood. We also have the so called ‘black Irishmen’ thought to be descended from shipwrecked Spaniards. I expect somebody who knows a lot more will manage to fill in the details.
Farming is incredibly capital intensive. It is also an impossible addiction to break, once you start down the path you just keep convincing yourself the next purchase/improvement will make things easier. 🤣 I admit I might need subtitles with Sean.
Another fascinating video Cammy , really enjoyed it. We were a little uncertain about the plastic grating for our new shed but so far we are impressed, it works well, very quiet, doesn't balk the sheep and much easier to install than wooden grating. But I wish I'd known about slurrying the waste 12 months ago - we could have incorporated that into the shed design.....
Great show!! I Loved it!! I do not have any sheep or sheep farm. Although, I used to have chickens and pigs. I just love the show!! I have some physical problems and so I am limited in my activities. So, you give me quite a laugh as I am watching ya!! Hehehe!!!
Brilliant video. Well done both of you. You're right Cammy...there's no money in farming...we keep having to spend it on new gear🤦♂️ Great to see videos of other farms and pick up little ideas👌
Great video Cammy, it's good to see the way that different areas have to farm depending on the climate and the area that they are based in. Sorry I couldn't do any translating this time around, as the comment would have ended up as long as War and Peace. 🤔🤣 (I daresay the majority of people would have got the gist of what you were all saying anyway) 👍
On the subject of slatted floors, check out Shambani Farm and see how it's done with Boer Goats in far off places. By the way, Sean looks a lot like Leon Draisitl, one of my favourite hockey players. I always think of that when I see him. Boer goats is what I raise for a hobby.
Hello from West Tennessee , USA . Loving your channel love hearing ya'll talk tho I can't understand every word. Wow what hard work you do I respect that ! Have you ever played football ? Lol ! Keep them camera's rolling.😊
"Slated sheep sheds" say that 3 times fast! Watched once with cc, then 2x without, think I got most of it now 😉 That's a fantastic set up. Really has to be your preferred way of life, hard work.
Wonderful video Cammie!! Thank you for sharing. I didn't understand half of what was said ...😂..but I enjoyed it none the less. Blessings to you and the family 🙏💜🕊✝️
The processors and supermarkets are the middlemen making the margin. Same old story not to get political but just seeing how you work and this family work i couldnt hold back. Mighty people and industry, drive on Pat
I've got he closed captions on to help my american brain with the accents. When it's just the sheep the CC switches back and forth between 'music' and 'applause'. Seems appropriate that the sheep are singing to you and applauding you as the get fed and watered.

Thank you Cammy for sharing Sean's farm. Those slats are a great concept.
The Viking man is like a polished Sword . I was so happy to see him and see how hard he works. Thanks Cammie.. Granny.90

What a delightful video! Really enjoy seeing the farming process...always a good time going along on the day's chores.
Thanks Bob!
I LOVE listening to you guys! He has a nice barn for his lambs. ♥️
Loads of love… give Jake a kiss from the old granny from Florida.
Jock. The baby is called Jock.
@@jimmyjohnstone5878 awwwe nuts! Sorry Cammie didn’t mean to get little Jock’s name wrong. Thanks for the correction Jimmy.
Excellent! Great to see what happens on the other side of the world...we Aussies can be a bit set in our ways! Lots to share and learn...thanks mate.
I agree. Even though we are not dealing with quite those climate extremes there are some really good pointers in Cammy's vids.
I really enjoy seeing the different farms. The Viking is fabulous, although I did have a lot of trouble understanding what he was saying!! Great scenery too.
Sean must be a nice guy. His sheep are so mellow.

2 legends at work. Great video as usual Cammy, and a great Co Host.
I wish I could understand you better, but I love the lyrical language! I also love how you have so much laughter in your videos! I enjoyed this very much. Thanks Cammy!
Love the Orkney accent! And Shetland yarn 🧶
Loved the video, the viking did a very good job in explaining his set up and how it works for him. He lives in a beautiful place.
Sean needs to vlog his new farm , great video, well done guys
What an amazing farm, with beautiful scenery.
I so enjoy these kinds of videos. Thanks Cammy!
Such a beautiful place! Thanks for taking us for an adventure! Such hard work, and it pays off in the long run. Not many people are willing to put in the time, and money for sheep farming.
Cracking video as always. Some setup Sean has. The sheep look very happy and contented.
Love the video cammy Sean should definitely start his own RUclips channel great video as always
Thank you for the tour, it's great to see different set ups and the different challenges other farms face. And I love hearing the difference in accent too!
I look forward to your videos and enjoy all the laughter shared with your friends.
Great content Cany, keep it up, better than anything else on telly 👍
Many thanks Cammy, very interesting. You take care.
A boy Cammy another good video 👍. The viking has a great setup. He makes it look easy.
Love a bit of Sean and Orkney
Fasinating about the slats
Love listening to your accents I’m finally able to understand everything.
Thank you so much for the tour.
Informative and nice farm. He certainly speaks fast. so many different types of sheep barns.
Great walkthrough of Laga’s setup. Hopefully Sean gets to the bottom of any possible resistance issues 🙏
Thoroughly enjoyed this look at another set up. Slats were interesting. Orkney views are spectacular.
I found I understood almost everything which surprised me. What I didn't was more technical (not knowing what the terms meant) than not understanding the word.
Brilliant! Well done you because Sean’s accent isn’t easy for the non Scot! 😆
@@TheSheepGame he’s easy to understand! I’ve never had an issue

Great vlog today, Cammy and Sean. What spectacular countryside!
Awesome farm set up and enjoyed all the barn layout, feed, etc....well done Sean. Cammy really enjoy your videos. My Aunt raised North Country Cheviots here in Maine-USA.
Fabulous content . . . have to be a hearty person on that landscape . . .
Excellent video I really enjoyed seeing around Sean’s family farm they are a lovely family very hard working. I wish him and his girlfriend good luck on their new farm.
Very interesting, such beautiful quiet sheep , love seeing the different ways sheep are kept and the characters you meet
This was very interesting. I love seeing set-ups and evaluating how the changes are working. Well done!
What a fun video. I love Orkney, I have been there three times. Gorgeous place and beautiful people. Really enjoyed this. Thanks Cammie and Sean.
Great video guys. greetings from a poor sheep farmer in west Ireland
Great video- thanks Cammy and Sean 👍👍👍👍👍
Great video, the viking seams like a real gent. Really enjoyed this.
Great ideas and information. Beautiful country
Amazing farming on such a remote area of the world! ❤️🇦🇺🏴
Great farm have always been a laga farm fan great to see it on this video cracking farmers and great farms.
Nice video and good to see Sean and his set up.
I love the blogs you 2 do together it's like watching a comedy duo. 😂😂😉
I want about 30 if those slat panels! I see so many possibilities! Great video. Thanks so much for covering this. Way more than I can afford, but extremely valuable I'm sure!
What a beautiful place, thanks for sharing with us.
Wow such awesome information. Much love from Iowa, USA.
Hi Cammy! Nice to check out your vlog, always. Have fun.
Awh man! I was asleep!…. Morning!
Although I don’t understand most of what’s being said I just enjoy listening. I’ll get it with time. Love this channel
Really enjoyed having a nosey round Sean's farm.
Farming on an island! Could be love or madness. Or both. Great video❤️
Certainly a different set up to our farm where our sheep are on grass 24/7. The only time they come inside is when they empty out pre shearing. 👍
Despite i dont understand well
I am enjoying this video
It is such a great vídeos about farms in the UK, and about life in the countryside.

ROFL. You do know this is Orkney right? If he let his sheep out for three months in the winter they'd starve long before fluke causes any harm.
