    What a beauty Sebastian is. I’m guessing he’s the one responsible for all of those late lambs? You are a superstar Cammy, the way you treat animals, so gentle and caring, if only everyone was that way.

    What a beautiful ram. I can’t believe the calm demeanour he has, i think he knows how good looking he is. My god, the beautiful wool he has, when the underneath started showing I swear I could feel it’s silliness. Oh yes, try and show us more if that breed. Are they naturally calm, he seemed to really be chill to be with you and to be shorn. Or do you secretly have a pet ram that you spoil 🤣😂. Love your videos. ❤❤

    Love the way you talk to him, and watching your fingers or even part of your arm seem to hold some of his skin tight. Looks like keeping the skin from getting caught by the blades. It's amazing how underneath the top layer the fleece is so shiny and soft looking. After he's shorn he looks incredibly compact and well put together. Nice video for this time of year, a pleasant interlude.
