      Same here Alexander. I am tired of the city lifestyle and I feel I need a different lifestyle. Farming is hard work but I feel it is much more rewarding and meaningful.

    Appreciate your putting out this video.Good to see you able to transition from nets to two wire.Thinking of sheep but still timid. This is encouraging to move forward.

    I was happy to find your channel. My husband and I have the channel called heartiness approach. We have a milk cow and raise our own eggs and meat chickens and then layers. We want very much to have sheep but have not ventured into it yet. I was very glad to find your channel since you are a first time Shepherd and it can give me the courage and the knowledge to be able to start this process. I have subscribed.

    • @NaturesAlwaysRight
      @NaturesAlwaysRight  Год назад +1

      You should go for it! If you can handle a dairy cow you are more than up for the challenge.

    These videos you produce have fantastic content. This is exactly what I want to do with our new property (which is rented out for now)on 4 agricultural zoned acres in Hawaii. We are hoping to see you at the HOA conference in Frontroyal Virginia next weekend. 🌈😃🤙

    Wow, just found your channel and you were in a backyard in San Diego. This is amazing to see :).
    We raised painted desert sheep for a couple years. Though stubborn at times sheep are my favorite backyard animal.

    Sheep netting can be frustrating at times but overall I really utilize it and plan on investing in more. Works great for cattle too. Great video Steven.

  • @alisonkirton8377
    @alisonkirton8377 Год назад +1

    thanks Stephen 😊 always find your content super helpful! We just purchased our LGD puppy this week and will be picking up 5 pure bred St Croix in a few weeks as soon as we have finished our fence! We are doing woven wire perimeter with one strand hot wire to connect the paddocks like you are doing. We also have netting, but thanks for the warning about sheep getting caught! Will bear that in mind. We are new to this too!

  • @gvas7560

    I can’t wait to see how you set this up. We are working on getting our first sheep and learning how to do rotational grazing.

  • @ajoshmiller
    @ajoshmiller Год назад +1

    Thanks for sharing. I agree with you on the netting and danger to some animals. I had a 2-3 week old calf get caught in some poultry netting. Luckily I saw it happen and was able to get it out.

    • @NaturesAlwaysRight
      @NaturesAlwaysRight  Год назад +1

      Oh man that's so good you caught it! I had a neighbors dog get caught in it too, luckily the neighbor got me in time before it died.

    I followed a link today for "skyrocketing meat prices" but instead it took me to this "joy of sheep" video. Not sure if anyone will see this comment, but hoping you get that sorted out so I can watch the other video. :-)

    What advice do you have for those moving and starting to farm in a new zone/climate? We will be in a very similar area. Do you have advice for setting up a homestead? Harvesting hardwoods? Etc.

  • @stephanieroyal3453
    @stephanieroyal3453 Год назад

    I really couldn't eat the sheep because they are so cute and I would fall in love with them.

  • @honeycaffena4897
    @honeycaffena4897 Год назад

    Yes, agree about meat available in the future! Please share more information! By the way, how many acres do you have the sheep on?

    • @NaturesAlwaysRight
      @NaturesAlwaysRight  Год назад +1

      That field is about 4 acres. The sectioned off paddock is 1/2-3/4acre

  • @ArcsandSparks315
    @ArcsandSparks315 Год назад

    Bro get a welder and and smash the ends of your conduit pipe or chain link fence pipe. And weld your structures wicked light and super strong. I use greenhouse channel and wiggle wire to attach weather tight barriers to them. Great job your doing on your homestead!

    • @ezforsaken
      @ezforsaken Год назад +2

      Agree, also it's cheaper in the long run, fasteners sometimes can cost a lot!

    • @NaturesAlwaysRight
      @NaturesAlwaysRight  Год назад

      You're right man I do really need to get a welder! Great idea of attaching the wiggle wire.

  • @losnolt

    I’m thinking of getting a mobile ram pen like Justin Rhodes has and use it to move 3 or 4 sheep around my farm. Think that could work?

  • @jpablo9183
    @jpablo9183 Год назад +1

    I have about 2.5 acres which is all grass aside from my house. Do I have enough space to raise sheep? If so, what do you think is the maximum amount I can have? Thanks!

    • @moonafarms1621
      @moonafarms1621 Год назад

      I would say only two ewes would be sustained by that acreage, if you're wanting to minimize your budget in supplementing hay during winter/early spring.

    • @moonafarms1621
      @moonafarms1621 Год назад

      You're going to need to make a few different pastures and rotate as well if you want to minimize parasite exposure too. Pumpkins are those ewes favorite to rid of some parasites too.

  • @Puffenough666
    @Puffenough666 Год назад

    You should get a sickle bar mower and mow your hay with that instead of a bush hog.

    • @NaturesAlwaysRight
      @NaturesAlwaysRight  Год назад +1

      His cutter will be fixed next time. The bush hog is modified to shoot the grass to one side.

  • @marycerullo8455
    @marycerullo8455 Год назад

    I have watched you from time, but I find the lack of any food preserving techniques leaves your channel lacking. What to do with all the food that you grow is what will address the food shortage issue you are basing your channel on. We will starve over the winter when there’s nothing in the pantry to sustain us. You’re just another guy that grows food and that’s all.

    • @NaturesAlwaysRight
      @NaturesAlwaysRight  Год назад +1

      I've been thinking about that exact thought recently! The last many years I've been practicing all those skills behind the scenes and just made my channel about farming only. I think I'm going to change that soon. I was the guy growing food 12 years ago before youtube when hardly anyone even thought you could make a living or do it using the most advanced natural techniques. I'm hardly just another guys that grows.
