Billys mom had the prettiest colour wool, black/grey and smoke all mixed, glorious!. The really woolly one must have been so relieved to get rid of all that weight, she looked so happy afterwards 😊
i love watching sheep shearing. It is so satisfying watching all the wool come off in 1-2 pieces. And he does it so well and fast too! Its amazing to be honest.
Shearing is a favorite to watch. And rejoice I don't have to do that backbreaking work!! 👌 I can't get over how they just flop like ragdoll kitties, when they're flipped onto their backs or bums. Sure different from goats! 😂 💚 🐑,🐏 | 🛑🐐
I agree! I always love watching him shear her sheep. Keeping the girls calm and handling them well. I imagine they would love to kick him if they got a chance 😂
That young lady who works fro you when she is not at uni is absolutely a dear. when you get her to assist on video ie pass you the inserts to promote pregnancy, she try's so hard not to look at the camera, fails and looks up then gets so embarrassed. Adorable. I listen when you give her high praise so it is is obvious you think . very highly of her and how she works with you. I really think that you should give extreme thought to employing her when she graduates. you are a very good team.
Awww. I used to love when my dad sheared. His rough calloused hands would be so soft afterwards! ❤ Now I will wipe my tears and watch the rest of the video.😊
I love how beautiful the clean wool looks on the underside when he is done shearing. Also - Charlie looks like he's abducting the sheep. Hand over the mouth and a quick snatch out the gate. 😂
Switching hands is unique. I think because my mom was left handed I switch hands with most things. Yes, even brushing my teeth and putting on eye makeup. Oh, and ironing clothes too.
I recently discovered your channel and I LOVE it. I admire the way that you genuinely love the animals in your care. It's also awesome seeing a woman running her own show and being independent but still loving her man and working with him also. (I hope that made sense). Anyway, thank you for sharing this view into your life!
Wow, he's very good! Quick, calm, and close without injuring! That is a seriously long staple on that girl. And only a yearling? Oh boy, can't wait to see her future shearings!
He is the best I have ever seen. We used to have shearers that knicked and cut the girls so badly. There were not many who did the work, so we didn't have many option. Thank you so much for the kind way you care for the animals in your care!
Why is watching sheep shearing so satisfying? Thank you so much Sandy for sharing so much of your life. The sheep sound like they are revolting against you for not feeding them. 😂
Always more than interesting, so much information, entertainment by some of the mama's but especially the babes, and learning. Thank you so much for the amount of time, effort and love you share. I appreciate. And your hair up with the bandanas is very lovely. In Joy
I think the idea to color code the sheep by how many babies she is carrying, has really helped lessen the amount of ewes you have to do an internal exam on during lambing. :)
Not quite - she still checks anyway (and has gotten upset at Jess for not checking in fact, and herself more than once). The idea of shearing when she does isn’t to reduce internal exams - it’s so that the nearly blind newborn lambies have clear access to the teats to nurse, and to keep backsides area more sanitary during labour delivery and finally so their undersides are cleaner for the babies who don’t got an immune system yet and are particularly vulnerable to pathogens like bacteria and viruses that usually get trapped in belly wool etc.
Sandi, my favorite part of your posts is watching your dog, which I assume is a Border Collie. Barriers notwithstanding, he is keeping his eye on his herd. Watching him jump over the separations in the feed trough cracks me up. He acts so much like an Aussie I lost last summer Cheers from Houston.
Wow! I haven’t seen sheep shearing since 1972 when I visited Australia, I guess that makes me old🤣🤣 Sandi, you work so hard, you are amazing with your animals. Thank you for sharing❤️🥰
I have been following along for a year and a half and I find it amazing how many little things you’ve changed to improve your management. Very impressive!
Thoughts so, too. I'm like " what would would I knit with that?" Have to spin it first of course, but hmmmm....sweater, hat, wimple (smoke ring like scarf), mittens? Socks?
A friend in Collingwood, her dad was a fast sheep shearer and would win first place at the Royal Winter Fair every year, and everyone got fed up with him always winning ~ so they made him a judge! Problem solved. We got to see him shear a couple of lambs and he explained you can either shear up and down, like Charlie obviously does, or you can shear in a round about fashion. Back breaking work outside being a farrier. Terrific work. Well done. 🙂
Am I the only one that finds sheep shearing mesmerizing? Love watching your channel Sandi! I found you just a short while ago and can't stop watching. I'm a 35 yr old previous farm girl in Alberta and I've been thinking of going back home to the farm to take over/start a cattle operation on my dad's old homestead for the last 2 years. I'm getting lots of ideas from your channel and definitely want to treat the cattle operation like a business! Hoping that my partner and I can take that leap in the coming year. Thanks for being "ewe"! ;) And keep up the wonderful videos: even the hard and ugly days. As we all need to see what it really is like in agriculture. It's not always roses and good sunny days.
It makes me feel better after a long morning of hard physical labor to rest after a mid day meal and watch your video. Seeing you dragging wood around like I had to do on my own yesterday makes me feel a sense of coma derby. I just turned 65 btw. You go girl!
Sherring one of my favourites the sheep look so fresh after, thank Charlie for letting us watch him work it is an art form. The wool looks so soft but the black wool looks even softer
I LOVE SHEARING DAY! it's so satisfying! 🥰🥰🥰 I think shearing day is why I started watching in the first place. I love watching animal grooming shows and sheep are no different. I find it very satisfying and I can only imagine how good those ewes feel after all that wool is off.
Hs Sandy - For as much free advertising that you give the Gallagher system, I would encourage you to contact them and make a request to be able to have access to change the heading on those fields. It is a relatively simple programming change that they should be able to accomplish. It is probably that your issues are shared with other Gallagher users. Love your channel.
Sandi is right that the default columns can't be changed, but if you click on "Select Columns" on the top left side you can change the view (which columns you see, in what order, etc.) and you can save that view to change it quickly. I'm not sure if this is what she was referring to but I hope she knows about this feature! I agree that Gallagher and other companies should send her free tools for us to watch! :)
The Gallagher manual says you can add and delete fields in the Configure tab and Set Up Fields menu: am.gallagher.com/-/media/Bynder/Animal-Management/Document/All-GGL-Manuals/Animal-Performance-Software-APS-Professional-User-Manual-INToriginal.pdf
I've been watching all your videos you o was looking for something differently. I found you and I absolutely love you! You work your ass off ! Your amazing Keep on being you. I'm in Michigan. We e hadcit rough here during covid. I'll keep watching your videos. Thank you for being here. You bring me joy.
Your maintenance schedule makes sense, you can really see the length of the hooves on Billy's mom and the ultra woolly ewe. Without the wooly, they will fit in your flipper tool :) always enjoyable to watch Sandi!
I have been dying for a new video so I was excited when this popped up today! Seeing those lambs just makes my day! You are INCREDIBLE Sandi and enjoy watching your channel and how you truly love all your animals!! I’m so impressed that you so openly praise those who work with you!! That says so much about your character. Have a great day 🐑 🐏 🐑
I love watching the sheep being sheared! the wool is so beautiful underneath and the makes the sheep so more comfortable! I grew up around farmers and shearers it was such a natural normal everyday thing the sheep getting there little hair cuts that I was shock when I found out that people have a problem with it! I must have watched millions of sheep being sheared over the years and there has never been a single moment I ever saw that made me wonder if the process ever hurt the sheep. Toenails aren't looking too bad either!
I could watch Charlie for days!!!!! I absolutely love Miss Lady (Billy's Mom)!!!! She's my favorite ewe!!! Thanks for another awesome video Sandi!!! My days are complete with Sandi and her Sheep!!! I'm one of Sandi's Sheeple!!
I think the sharing looks like a great massage. Then if you add the baby lambs jumping all over their back’s there’s another massage. Sandi you’re just running a sheep massage parlor. Lol ♥️♥️♥️♥️🇺🇸
I loved this one the most I think Sandi. Your smile is so beautiful, I love you hair here. Your lambs are growing so fast. Ive only been here about a month. Learning so much. Thanks for sharing so much
Aww those two new baby lambs are so tiny and cute 😹😹😹, Charlie shearing is very quick but I have never seen duel shearing all the guys out here who I have seen shearing only use one hand, he’s good at his job 🙀😹
Sandi! I have been watching you for about 7 or 8 months now, as I have wanted to get sheep. I got my beautiful Katahdins in November, and my ewe just had her first lamb!! I had to share the good news. Because of you, I felt prepared. Thank you!
I cannot tell you how much I LOVE watching Charlie shear!! It’s so fascinating, and you can tell he’s really gentle with the sheep. If he had his own RUclips channel, I’d definitely be one of the first subscribers!
I missed the lambs in the feeder until you mentioned it. 😂 Then in her next clip with the bottle for the new twins, there were a total of 5 in the feeder. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi again SANDI Charlie is one of the best I've seen in a while. He does such a good job and so fast! Very impressive to be able to switch hands. Happy for you you have him!
The new twins are cute ☺️! Charlie makes shearing look like magic😁! It can’t be easy😳! Does anyone feel like time is just flying by really fast 🕊? Thank you for the updates and sharing, Sandy🤗💗!
Oh to get some of those long lovely locks for spinning!!! That black sheep is gorgeous!! And I think she’s saying - I don’t know what the heck that smell is..... LOL
I was really impressed to see that there weren't a FLOOD of comments of people screaming about 'he's being so rough with them!' I've watched a lot of shearing videos and have never personally done it, and it is a very labor-intensive profession that requires a lot of skill to keep the wool and the sheep safe and controlled. Well done! Happy naked mamas!
I could honestly watch sheep shearing all day long. So satisfying. I love watching shearing competitions and such, but sadly I'm hella allergic to sheep wool so i can only ever watch via videos. Still amazing to watch. Charlies two hand technique is quite impressive.
Seeing Billie’s mom again got me wondering, are sheep colorings classified similarly to those used on horses (or other domesticated hoofed animals)? In the horse world, Billie’s mom would be close to a Blue Roan. Black base coat with white hairs sprinkled throughout the body but still maintain the black coat on the head and “points”. Very beautiful. She needs a name at one point.
Sheep have color names but they are very different from horses. The names themselves depend on the breeds origins. I believe that Billy’s mom is Belinda but don’t quote me on that
Billy’s mom is beautiful! What breed of sheep has so much wool but her head is smooth. She’s wearing a huge wool coat! Her face is so pretty!❤️ Love watching Charlie shear sheep!
I love your videos. It's so relaxing to watch what you do. In a time where the world is in such chaos, I would rather watch your chaos. I love that you truly love your sheep.
He is so talented and gets through each lamb quickly. This is someone you need to have at this time. It was fascinating watch. I'm from England and have never seen anything like this. Take care and stay safe everyone x
In all honesty the firmness of handling the sheep is an experience thing - too soft and slow and it is almost like tickling them and they sense they can get away if they jump, squirm and struggle enough. Too much and it can be almost brutal and can result in injuries to the animal and person, about right and they realize they cannot escape and basically give in to being sheared. If they start to struggle then applying extra pressure to their bodies at the correct location / place temporarily they often give up and lie there pretty quietly. It is also worth noting that the sheep's size, breed and age will also have an influence as well how used they are to being handled and worked with in close quarters. Small mountain breeds are the most awkward and least compliant whereas larger Downland breeds are easier.
There’s something very satisfying about seeing the wool sheered off the sheep. They look so happy and clean when it’s over. It’s quite a talent to be able to sheer so quickly and not clip the sheep, isn’t it. Nice video.
Sandi, you are a very special lady. I am hooked on watching your videos. I love when you talk to them and they look at you, fully understanding what you are telling them. The lambs are so precious. God bless you.
I have never seen ANYONE work so hard and still be so pleasant..Sandi, You are so amazing!! I showed your video and told my husband "This lady is totally the hardest working person I have ever seen.. She totally Rocks!! and amazes me every time I see her!! "
Watching sheep shearing has always fascinated me (born and bred in the burbs), but Charlie's ambidextrous technique is even more fascinating. And the sheep aren't stressed at all when he's done. He sure is a great sheerer.
Actually, the sheep look very relaxed as they are getting clipped!!! A SPA 🧖♀️ MOMENT?!? Love you Sandi!! Keep up the good work!!! ❤️🧖♀️🤩❤️🧖♀️🤩🐑🐑🐑🤩🧖♀️❤️🤩🧖♀️❤️
Sandi, if you want to adjust the headers, you can always contact the software developer and tell them what you need. Most are happy to help with that. Also, you can export to an online spreadsheet and it will unlock it for you, then you can adjust it and download it back to your file system. Or at least that's what I do when I can't figure out a work around. Hope that helps! Love watching the shearing! Thank you for sharing ❤
It would be a fun crossover to see Cammie come over and shear your sheep. Every time I watch these shearing vids, I have to go get my spinning wheel going! 😁
We very much enjoy watching your channel from Sasebo, Japan. My 9 year old suggests, if she isn't already named, the one with so much wool be called "Wooly-Mom-oth"
Thank you Charlie, for not being camera shy and letting us watch!
I love watching them get a hair cut
Billys mom had the prettiest colour wool, black/grey and smoke all mixed, glorious!. The really woolly one must have been so relieved to get rid of all that weight, she looked so happy afterwards 😊
I love her coloring too and she's Billy's mommy
I love her coloring after shearing...add silver to your colors nana jack. She's so pretty.
I loved that black/Grey color too
Yes a agree
Put down a lot of korean and world's stock. And then d'ont raise it up~~!! It's right~!! 🐢......,,
i love watching sheep shearing. It is so satisfying watching all the wool come off in 1-2 pieces. And he does it so well and fast too! Its amazing to be honest.
I don’t even want to know how bad his back feels after sheering. Can’t be good.
@@tinabranch321 Right?! I couldn’t stand up straight for a month!😅
Shearing is a favorite to watch. And rejoice I don't have to do that backbreaking work!! 👌
I can't get over how they just flop like ragdoll kitties, when they're flipped onto their backs or bums. Sure different from goats! 😂
💚 🐑,🐏 | 🛑🐐
I agree! I always love watching him shear her sheep. Keeping the girls calm and handling them well. I imagine they would love to kick him if they got a chance 😂
Love watching the shearing at same time thinking that's alot of yarn.

I too thought Carrissa was in Uni ... but she is actually in High School! What an amazing young lady!!!!
Charlie must have the softest hands with all that lanolin in sheep wool. Thanks Charlie, I love watching your ballet
Thank you Sandi, from a fellow shearer, for having the sheep’s bellies empty and for the clean area for shearing with TWO sheets of plywood.
Awww. I used to love when my dad sheared. His rough calloused hands would be so soft afterwards! ❤ Now I will wipe my tears and watch the rest of the video.😊
I feel for that skinny mama. I hope she gets extra TLC, she earned it doing so good on her own and even delivering perfect babies.
I love how beautiful the clean wool looks on the underside when he is done shearing.
Also - Charlie looks like he's abducting the sheep. Hand over the mouth and a quick snatch out the gate. 😂
THAT's what something has been trying to tell me! The scoundrel! LMAO!
He is cute to look at also😀......just saying.
@@vickyburton2434
Don't make him camera shy! LOL!!!
I didn’t see any of the ladies complaining! 😉😂🤣😂
Switching hands is major skill. I tried brushing my teeth with my left hand once didn't go as planned.
🥰🥰🥰🥰
🤣👌 you're funny.
Did you punch yourself in the face or tried pushing the brush through your teeth?
@@bobb6342 it was a combination
Switching hands is unique. I think because my mom was left handed I switch hands with most things. Yes, even brushing my teeth and putting on eye makeup. Oh, and ironing clothes too.

It made perfect sense, I am in total agreement!
Wow, he's very good! Quick, calm, and close without injuring!
That is a seriously long staple on that girl. And only a yearling? Oh boy, can't wait to see her future shearings!

Nice---a spinner's dream. No second cuts! I like the black sheep's wool. So pretty. I'll bet Charlie's hands and arms are soft from the lanolin.
Thank you for your vlogs. They give me a break from reality and love to hear the lambs bleet. You are a highlight to my day!
Why is watching sheep shearing so satisfying? Thank you so much Sandy for sharing so much of your life. The sheep sound like they are revolting against you for not feeding them. 😂
I am so happy that the 2 new twins are well and did not have any thing wrong with them. so sweet and cute. love the show
Charlie is so efficient! I'm not anywhere near a sheep expert, but they look so energetic after the shearing! Good job!
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the jump that the dog did at 2:00
Gotta get Lucy on the intro cartoon! Carissa is awesome, what a hard worker and great help!
My shearer is coming next week so I'm watching this while I wait (not so patiently!) He does a lovely job. Switching hands... That's impressive.
Always more than interesting, so much information, entertainment by some of the mama's but especially the babes, and learning. Thank you so much for the amount of time, effort and love you share. I appreciate. And your hair up with the bandanas is very lovely. In Joy
I think the idea to color code the sheep by how many babies she is carrying, has really helped lessen the amount of ewes you have to do an internal exam on during lambing. :)

Sandi, my favorite part of your posts is watching your dog, which I assume is a Border Collie. Barriers notwithstanding, he is keeping his eye on his herd. Watching him jump over the separations in the feed trough cracks me up. He acts so much like an Aussie I lost last summer Cheers from Houston.
It's a She. Kinzie is her name! And shes cute but shes not very good at her job.😊
Wow! I haven’t seen sheep shearing since 1972 when I visited Australia, I guess that makes me old🤣🤣
Sandi, you work so hard, you are amazing with your animals. Thank you for sharing❤️🥰
Charlie is a brilliant sheerer, Aussie farms would have him anytime!! I love his ambidextrousness 🤜🤛 Keep up the awesome work Charlie.
I have been following along for a year and a half and I find it amazing how many little things you’ve changed to improve your management. Very impressive!
Billy's mom has a really pretty color under all that wool
Yes Billy’s mum is a good girl
I love grey hair and wool. I've always thought it was beautiful
Her fleece is gorgeous. It would be wonderful to spin her fleece.
Thoughts so, too. I'm like " what would would I knit with that?" Have to spin it first of course, but hmmmm....sweater, hat, wimple (smoke ring like scarf), mittens? Socks?
@@ilovehorses5714 A lovely blanket would be beautiful!
A friend in Collingwood, her dad was a fast sheep shearer and would win first place at the Royal Winter Fair every year, and everyone got fed up with him always winning ~ so they made him a judge! Problem solved. We got to see him shear a couple of lambs and he explained you can either shear up and down, like Charlie obviously does, or you can shear in a round about fashion.

Shorn..S. H. O. R. N.

I loved watching the sheering and the black and gray sheep, oh what great wool fabric those colors would make. Your show is so fascinating. Thank you!
Your “caption this” spot had me going “please don’t fart. Please don’t fart.” 🤣🤣🤣
Mine would have hope you didn't eat beans for dinner
Who R U? How'd I get in this line?!? 😆
Charlie's ambidextrous approach is a lot easier on the ewes you can see that clearly. You lucked out and were smart enough to recognize his worth. ♡
The dog in the background licking the sheeps faces was so cute 🥺❤️ 11:55
Very cute... But Kinsey is washing their ears!
I could watch Charlie for days!!!!! I absolutely love Miss Lady (Billy's Mom)!!!! She's my favorite ewe!!! Thanks for another awesome video Sandi!!!

I loved this one the most I think Sandi. Your smile is so beautiful, I love you hair here. Your lambs are growing so fast. Ive only been here about a month. Learning so much. Thanks for sharing so much
Another wonderful video Sandi, thank you for taking so much time to edit and produce all of this for us fans! You’re an amazing lady! ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍🐑🐑
Aww those two new baby lambs are so tiny and cute 😹😹😹, Charlie shearing is very quick but I have never seen duel shearing all the guys out here who I have seen shearing only use one hand, he’s good at his job 🙀😹
Oh my gosh Charlie what a backbreaking job. You are fantastic. Amazing that you can use both hands right and left for Shearing
Sandi! I have been watching you for about 7 or 8 months now, as I have wanted to get sheep. I got my beautiful Katahdins in November, and my ewe just had her first lamb!! I had to share the good news. Because of you, I felt prepared. Thank you!
"Caption This": I see London I see France, I see the back of Charlie's pants!😅
For a non native speaker who hears this one for the first time, that was hilarious 🤣
Calm down Stepha no plumbers crack Hahahaha! Charlie looks great😉
Pooo stink!
Shame shame.
11:22 I love that part where your sheep dogs jumps around and licks the ears of the big sheep. Such cool animal interaction
11:52
My family found you a couple of weeks ago and love your videos! Growing up reading James Herriot, the lambing times are my favorite to watch!
I love shearing day. It's so satisfying seeing the sheep with their heavy load relieved. They look so sleek. And Mr. Charlie is fab.
When the ewes only had their bellies shaved before getting their backs/sides done all i could think about was a sheep with a fade ^○^
I cannot tell you how much I LOVE watching Charlie shear!! It’s so fascinating, and you can tell he’s really gentle with the sheep. If he had his own RUclips channel, I’d definitely be one of the first subscribers!
Check out Right Choice Shearing on RUclips.
Just watching and @13:23 just the two lambs hanging out in the feeder as she walks by.. made me just start laughing
I missed the lambs in the feeder until you mentioned it. 😂 Then in her next clip with the bottle for the new twins, there were a total of 5 in the feeder. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi again SANDI
Charlie is one of the best I've seen in a while. He does such a good job and so fast! Very impressive to be able to switch hands.
Happy for you you have him!
Omg the amount you have to remember is crazy. I can’t event remember recycling day. Lol
You've struck gold with Charlie, thank you for showing how the job is done.
The new twins are cute ☺️! Charlie makes shearing look like magic😁! It can’t be easy😳! Does anyone feel like time is just flying by really fast 🕊? Thank you for the updates and sharing, Sandy🤗💗!
Wow Charlie is awesome with those sheers. The wool is so beautiful. The ewes after being sheered are so pretty.
Your shearer is a jewel, well done. I spin so this was basically wool-porn 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Yep a gorgeous fleece appearing under the magic touch of a very talented bloke.... definately a lot to enjoy 😉
Laughing! I just wanted to KNIT something. NOW!!! I should watch this again for a "knitting nudge" come fall.
Love the black & gray fleeces! So beautiful to spin!
Yup very few second cuts
Oh to get some of those long lovely locks for spinning!!! That black sheep is gorgeous!! And I think she’s saying - I don’t know what the heck that smell is..... LOL
We sound like that when we're hungry. It's amazing how small the lambs are after shearing. All fresh and clean.
I was really impressed to see that there weren't a FLOOD of comments of people screaming about 'he's being so rough with them!' I've watched a lot of shearing videos and have never personally done it, and it is a very labor-intensive profession that requires a lot of skill to keep the wool and the sheep safe and controlled.

In the horse world, Billie’s mom would be close to a Blue Roan. Black base coat with white hairs sprinkled throughout the body but still maintain the black coat on the head and “points”. Very beautiful. She needs a name at one point.
Lady Grey?
Suffolk dominant ewe. Edit: I say this, but she also looked painted like Billy. So...I have no clue, lol.
Billie Jean? Billie Jo?
@@carolynchadwick7867 not my lover
Sheep have color names but they are very different from horses. The names themselves depend on the breeds origins.
I believe that Billy’s mom is Belinda but don’t quote me on that
Billy’s mom is beautiful! What breed of sheep has so much wool but her head is smooth. She’s wearing a huge wool coat! Her face is so pretty!❤️ Love watching Charlie shear sheep!
i don't think i have ever seen anyone swoop hands like that Charlie is a very clever chap.
He shears both left and right handed
Never get tired of shearing videos. Its a bit mesmerizing. Also spring days on your farm are so beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
I didn't know that I needed to watch the inner workings of a sheep farm. This is so cool 😁
I love your videos. It's so relaxing to watch what you do. In a time where the world is in such chaos, I would rather watch your chaos. I love that you truly love your sheep.
Billy's mom would make a beautiful colored yarn spun up!! Droooool! :-)
He is so talented and gets through each lamb quickly. This is someone you need to have at this time. It was fascinating watch. I'm from England and have never seen anything like this.
Take care and stay safe everyone x
I love it when Charlie just tosses the sheep around like a sack of potatoes and I was about ready to go into a sheep withdrawal 😥😱 Lol
In all honesty the firmness of handling the sheep is an experience thing - too soft and slow and it is almost like tickling them and they sense they can get away if they jump, squirm and struggle enough.
Too much and it can be almost brutal and can result in injuries to the animal and person, about right and they realize they cannot escape and basically give in to being sheared. If they start to struggle then applying extra pressure to their bodies at the correct location / place temporarily they often give up and lie there pretty quietly.
It is also worth noting that the sheep's size, breed and age will also have an influence as well how used they are to being handled and worked with in close quarters. Small mountain breeds are the most awkward and least compliant whereas larger Downland breeds are easier.
@@Dan.Whiteford Wow thanks for the info that was interesting to know
I just pretend they have a crush on Charlie and are secretly loving it rough. 😃💗
@@suerobinson9380 Lol yeah that’s one way to look at it
Your puppy is having a good time running behind you 😄
Thank you for sharing the shearing, it always reminds me of my first day in basic training. Lol
There’s something very satisfying about seeing the wool sheered off the sheep. They look so happy and clean when it’s over. It’s quite a talent to be able to sheer so quickly and not clip the sheep, isn’t it. Nice video.
Y'all do a beautiful job and Charlie is amazing at getting the fur.... Love it
To see Charlie just trim that fleece off like it was butter, is such a treat. Thank you and well done.
I love how they look at you when you're talking about them. They're like "🤨😊"
Sandi, you are a very special lady. I am hooked on watching your videos. I love when you talk to them and they look at you, fully understanding what you are telling them. The lambs are so precious. God bless you.
Congrats to the Shearer - (didn't catch his name) My goodness, shearing sheep is a hard backbreaking job! You do a super job! Awesome!
My dad was a shearing contractor so I have been in a lot of shearing sheds...you Charlie is an excellent shearer Congratulations
Charlie is ambidextrous. I am too. It’s definitely a plus skill!
I have never seen ANYONE work so hard and still be so pleasant..Sandi, You are so amazing!!
I showed your video and told my husband "This lady is totally the hardest working person I have ever seen.. She totally Rocks!! and amazes me every time I see her!! "
Watching sheep shearing has always fascinated me (born and bred in the burbs), but Charlie's ambidextrous technique is even more fascinating. And the sheep aren't stressed at all when he's done. He sure is a great sheerer.
Actually, the sheep look very relaxed as they are getting clipped!!! A SPA 🧖♀️ MOMENT?!? Love you Sandi!! Keep up the good work!!! ❤️🧖♀️🤩❤️🧖♀️🤩🐑🐑🐑🤩🧖♀️❤️🤩🧖♀️❤️
Billy's mama kinda looks like she has a roan pattern like you can see in horses and goats. Wonder if sheep can have it too?
Sandi, if you want to adjust the headers, you can always contact the software developer and tell them what you need. Most are happy to help with that.
Also, you can export to an online spreadsheet and it will unlock it for you, then you can adjust it and download it back to your file system. Or at least that's what I do when I can't figure out a work around. Hope that helps!
Love watching the shearing! Thank you for sharing ❤
It would be a fun crossover to see Cammie come over and shear your sheep. Every time I watch these shearing vids, I have to go get my spinning wheel going! 😁
I love watching Charlie sheer the sheep🐑. He has mad skills. I could watch him all day. That looks like a very hard job.
Are you going to have a garden again this year? That belly wool would be good mulch to put at least in the paths to keep down weeds!
We very much enjoy watching your channel from Sasebo, Japan. My 9 year old suggests, if she isn't already named, the one with so much wool be called "Wooly-Mom-oth"
Wow, that must be a back-breaking job. I love watching him sheer.
