ABOUT ME
I’m 31 years old and I’m a sheep farmer from Ayrshire in South West Scotland, which is why I have such a strong accent! I was born and raised on a sheep farm watching my dad who was the shepherd.
At 18 I went away from farming to work in the city (something I still do) and at 23 (2013) I decided I wanted to do something for some extra money so I went on a sheep shearing course. The hardest thing I’ll ever do was learning to shear sheep. [shudders thinking about it]
I shore whilst on my holidays from work for 2 years and then in 2015 my dad died so I decided to get my own sheep so I could continue working with sheep as it was something I loved doing. From there it escalated quickly from my first 4 sheep in my mum’s garden to now running around 850 breeding ewes.
I shore over 19,000 sheep this season in the UK and have my own shearing run which lets you see many different farms in the summer months.
A few years ago I bought myself a sheep pregnancy scanner and have been building up my run since then.
I watched a few farm vlogs on RUclips and decided I could have a go and now here we are!
Thanks for watching my videos and please subscribe if you want to see more in future.
Really am enjoying this daily lamb content. As if lambing isn’t hard enough, putting out a vlog of each day’s work while recovering from the Rona…well, you are legend! And not to forget the strong team working with you. You deserve much success. ☺️☺️🥰🥰 🐑🐑
Thank you Cammy I really enjoy your videos they help me with my sad days you put a smile on my face
Love watching you work with Meg. She’s brilliant. I don’t mind if there’s no drama. The scenery is beautiful, the lambs are gorgeous, the mums are so protective. And I love the slightly haphazard filming. It really conveys how quickly everything is changing and how you have to adapt the ever changing situation. Love it, love everything and love you dashing hither and yon!
Love to see Meg working that lamb. Dogs are amazing!
Cammy I just love the way you talk to your sheep and lambs , you treat them with such sensitivity and love.
Good to see mum get a worthy credit. I bet she’s there keeping you all fed and doing the little things nobody notices that seem to happen by magic. I’m glad big Sean will get one of the pups, I was quite impressed that even his old dogs just go along for the ride even though they are past it. Because he feels they still need a bit of fun in their lives.
Shout out to your Dog it's amazing to see it at its best
A perfect video, lots of lambs, a great display of Meg working, a pup update, a chat with your mum and a beautiful smile from your adorable son. Only thing missing was lizzy. Your looking a lot better and your commentary has me in stitches at times. Love your videos 🐑
Always amazes me how you can identify each & every one of your sheep. Knowing who mum is coz you seen the lamb being born in the morning. Been watching your videos for a while & think I'm doing well being able to tell a blackie from a cheviot let alone each individual. Great work Cammy. I drive past your fields on these nice light nights & so enjoy admiring your labours. Take care.
Absolutely love the new flock watch device and how you can quickly it works and especially how easily you can show us how it works! It very interesting especially how it was to log your sheep and especially how you can make notes, like the info on Iris. Please keep showing us you how you are doing it occasionally in future vlog.
Love your son and how you got to to smile on camera! Definitely a bright star to be proud of.
This is where you'll be calling Sandy about what she's found helpful with her galliger and all the info she's been able to store, as well as the stats that she's been able to look back on to improve her own flock!!!
I was thinking the exact same thing!
That’s what I was thinking!
It should be cool to hear the comparisons between them!
He has a sheep named Iris too now???
@@missymarie2698 I wanted to grab the wand and start imputing all sorts of notes, and then head straight back to the barn to sort out who had a skinned on lamb who had that weird looking milk etc🤣😂🤣😂 Sandy at Sheepishly Me has turned us into meticulous note takers, and farm hands at this rate!!!! ✊🏻😜
@@missymarie2698 🥰💞
The pups are just beautiful and healthy! The one with the brown eyebrows is a ringer for our beloved cow dog. Missy.
We have tow dogs called Jess and Mack
Love seeing Meg’s head peaking out from behind you. 🧡
Love listening to you Cammie, and how gentle and sweet you are with all the wee lambs! What a good sheep farmer you are.
Love watching Meg do.her job. Incredible. Thanks Cammy.
When I woke up this morning, my head was filled with these words...cheviot mules, blue-faced lesters, gimmers and hogs. lol I didn't know anything about sheep before watching your channel and now I cannot wait for your next video!
Much love from Nova Scotia!
Amazing Kristina thank you!
Sandy Brock sent me to your channel and. Now I'm hooked! Farmers are the hardest working people there are! Thank you for caring for the sheep you raise.
Me too 😁
Me too! I wonder how many people have come over from Sandi Brocks channel??????? If you have please write Sandi Brock with a ❤️🐑 ! I definitely think she deserves some recognition !!!!
Sandi Brock
We, I think I can speak for all us Sheep Fans, are enjoying seeing and hearing the day to day. Your comments and commentary is just brilliant as well as your humor. Y'all are definitely my favorite! Mum is such a beautiful gal, would love to see her and what she gets up to more often! Cheers from Texas ❣️
Your comments make my day Shelia!
Meg is a rock star. I enjoy watching her work.
I love the way you converse with the Lambs. You are a sheep farmer but they mean a lot to you as animals not just a product.
You’re a legend. You make it all look so easy! Sending love from Michigan, USA! ❤️🐑
Hi from Michigan here too!
Oh Cammy, wash the trailer ceiling, lol. Your hair is rubbing all over it. Love your new tracking system! Your sweet baby is so beautiful. What loving eyes
Cam, your an inspiration to us all. Always laughing and staying positive. Keep it up Pal 👍🏻
That smile!! Your son made ME smile! 😁 What a precious bundle. 💗
I love watching Meg work.
love watching meg work.
We have had cheviots, and blackies for close to 40 years. Here’s my take:
NCC - wilder, slightly less prolific, require a bit better feed, good maternal traits, good for crossing, wool more saleable for a variety of uses, better carcass.
SBF - easier to handle, closer to 150% in lowland conditions, can survive in places and produce a crop on harder ground, great mothers, great mule makers, wool’s biggest value is as protection from the elements especially the lamb coat, lighter carcass than chev on ave but can be fed to good dead weights.
Both breeds superb meat quality.
I'm still waiting for "Lie doon" pyjamas!!!
Wow! I am absolutely amazed with your sheep dog and how well she is trained! It fascinates me how you can say so little and she herds your sheep. I'm not a farmer at all and being so clearly an American, can finally understand most of what you say now that I have watced your channel for a year! I love it and how well you care and love your animals! Thanks for sharing your life!👍❤️
Afternoon Cammie. 🇳🇿 Loved the sky above you, great video.
Awww the puppies are adorable Cammie!! Glad your day wasn't too stressful young man. Get some rest and take some vitamin C to help you thru lambing.
Give Lizzie and Jock a hug please.
Blessings to you and the whole family 🙏🕊💜🕊
Wow! That sky is beautiful after all the storms.
I totally enjoyed your video,,,,Loved your mum ..... from Syracuse. Indiana USA Love your working dogs and pups.... and sweet child
Love your relationship with Meg. Could watch lambing all day. Brilliant as usual.
The sky was amazing on that field. A white rainbow and the Clouds were fanned out. I live in florida and the sky is always amazing me. That one lamb you took to its mother was loud and constant so funny.
Love Jock's blanket, it has my favourite animal, elephant 🐘
That was a gift from big Sean’s from Orkney’s mum. Jock can’t go anywhere without it ☺️
Brilliant video Cammy, watching you work Meg with the lamb was just great. Jock is just gorgeous.
Oh wow, that flockwatch is incredible! Such an effective and efficient system for your flock! Good on ya, Cammy!
I like seeing you ride around on the 3 wheeler on your land & the sheep & lambs.
I drove past a property out here which had sheep and I actually stopped my car to look at them. They were Suffolk and close to lambing. I started out very much disliking sheep and will probably never own them but after watching you and Sandi Brock, I have more respect for those who raise sheep. And find them fascinating now...though they still seem to just want to die. That's what drives me crazy! Excellent video!
The ewe upside down on your four wheeler was hilarious !!!!! Fantastic video Cammi . Lost lambies back with their moms. How great is that ! Your mom looks very sweet and those pups are the cutest !
Love seeing meg !
I just like a day in the life of cammy, love the dogs, Lizzie and all The lambs.
Expat lancashire lad watching in Tasmania , I grew up on a hill farm so your vids make me very nostalgic and it makes me realise what a privalige it was Jock's got alot to look forward too keep up the good work.
Love seeing your mom. She's so cute!
Thank you for sharing and always trying to keep the content interesting and varied. Great job! Love love seeing the kids at the end of your vids. Thanks Cammy 👍
That little baby is so cute!
Love how Meg rides so happily on the four wheeler. Loved seeing you Mum. Mum you are amazing raising the bugger pups. They are all so beautiful and healthy. What a big job that is. Big hugs from Canada xo. And omg Cammy Meg is so listening to you after the precious years of you both having ups and downs. Which I have always stuck up for her and you both because you are a good team. Even with the bumps. hugs
A boy Cammy another good video 👍.
When you're trying to catch a ewe in the fields, try park the quad facing the wall/hedgerow. That way you create a fence/barrier that creates an obstacle for the sheep & makes it easier for you to catch them.
Meg did a great job bringing the lamb out the gate.
So nice to see your Mum and the puppies, I love how Jock looks so comfortable and healthy with a great little smile
Thanks for sharing another great video 👍🐑🐑🐑💕
So nice to see your kid and your mom
At time 18:10 on video the ski behind you is an amazing shot. So peaceful and beautiful. Praise God.
* I meant sky.
Channel is growing pretty steady now Cammy. I followed a few days ago at 48 thousand and now 50 thousand is fast approaching.
Two days later 50k. Congratulations 🎉
It’s amazing! Thank you!
That opening scene is so well chosen, Cammie, you talking to that ewe, so serious and yet so funny. Your reactions are so genuine and your improvisations so great (the sheep on the back of the bike, really!), it's all so much fun and a daily joy fun to watch. I'm happy your flu is settling back now, you are all doing a great job, including mom, wee Jock, big Jock, Lizzie, everyone!
Well you sure do know your sheep, love the end with your dog meg and the baby lamb stand off. Your son is just the most adorable little sheep farmer in training. 🇨🇦
Cammy, as you said, a quiet day for you. Pretty good when things work out. Herdwatch looks interesting and will follow to see how you utilize it. Thank you for showing a quiet day, which doesn’t happen that often.
Thank you. You put a smile on my face.
Another great lamb video. It is amazing to watch Meg work the sheep. I enjoy your dialogue with the ladies and lambs. Take care.
These lambing videos are so enjoyable to me! I grew up on an Indiana farm back in the 60s, and my dad and 2 brothers raised horned Dorset sheep. So your vids are so interesting to me ... much larger scale than my experience. Once again, kudos to Meg. Thank you again. And stay well!
So Happy all looks good in the fields after a few rough days !
And seeing we Jock 🥰😍, always makes me smile !
No we want reality, don't hide the bad it's part of real life, tough to see but the good days are more often.
So sweet 🥰 beautiful atmosphere and flock and pups and the Baby 👶 he is grinning!!!! My favorite video
What a relief to have good weather and a quiet run.
Fascinating sheep farming I have never done it mainly arable,pig farming but love the daily going ons down at your farm.
Beautiful area of countryside Ayrshire have relatives there.
Lovely farming family.
Do miss those times of just meandering around the fields.
Keep up the great work
Your little boy is so sweet . He’s cuter then the wee lambs . Actually they are al oat on par . I’m really enjoying your channel and I don’t know what took so long for me to find you . Xoxox
I love the way that you speak to the sheep and lambs. You're so respectful.
I love love love lambing season! TFS with us daily Cammy. Watching to see how Flockwatch works out for you.
I've been using flock watch for about 8 months now and it's well handy, when you get used to the different sections. Especially for medication, and marking lambs to ewe's and marking the calender for immunisation,drench ect.
Cheers Paul! Looking forward to learning more!
Enjoyed the scanner view and the pup update. Lots of lovely lambs in this one. 'Shot myself (in the foot)' in your accent sounds like 'sh*t myself' in mine. I'm hearing you better now, but I didn't follow what happened ten times to the ewe with the crushed ear. Sounds like a tale. Might want to tell wee Jock that you're going to stick together instead of oops you've abandoned him! Make sure he knows he won't be reassigned like a silly lamb. He's a beauty :)
Love your new toy Cammie! It should only be a bit painful until you get all the sheep into it, then it'll be all downhill from there. Jock is looking wonderful. Just look at the big smile on him! Is he smiling a lot?
Loving the vlog. The longer you keep it going, the better it gets. It's fun how you talk to your Flock as if each one of us is the only one watching on the other side of the camera. Glad you're on the mend!
Puppies > events for content.
What a beautiful day y’all had!
Fantastic episode Cammy...you won the day!!!...🎉
I do hope that you managed to get a little sleep🤪
Give my love to Lizzy and wee Jock💌😁✨
Awesome new scanner! I know you're going to love it! Thanks for taking us along! ❤️
I love watching Sandi Brock register her new lambs. I subscribed here on her recommendation and you do it in the wild. Very exciting I'm glad I signed up when she displayed her new warm headband from you. Love the dogs.
💘seeing Mum & the 🐶🐶
The content you provide is really good. Not everything in life is chippy happy all the time.
Give Meg a hug!
I look forward to your video every day!! I’m so amazed at how hardy your sheep are! They mostly just have their lambs and raise them with no assistance, that’s awesome!!
It's morning here and I almost spit out my coffee laughing at your "Take the leap of faith" remark.
just started watching your videos (down in Manchester) really enjoying it, watching your dog with the lamb was fantastic
Just love watching Meg do her job! Thanks for the great video Cammy!
Beautiful sky. Xx
Your mom looks like a happy person thus I see where you get your humor and happiness from.❤️💞
Wow can your and Lizzies wee Jock get any cuter? 😎 So beautiful outside today and you sounding so much better. Nice to see your mom. The family resemblance is strong. Thanks for great moments in your day. We had a small farm with every animal except cows. The work goes on and on but what joy!
Great video Cammy really enjoy watching them, we sheep farmers all have the same problems as well as the good days , lovely ewes you got there best of luck from southern Ireland
Greetings from Wisconsin, USA. Great video, nice to have no major disasters 🙂. I in addition to all the variety of family and the animals there were also fantastic views of the hillsides and awesome skys. Great job!!
Good show, Cammy! Love watching!
Lovely video and no wonder your wee Mum is proud of you! You’re a great lad 💙
Good feeling video, it's nice to have some like this. 😊 Always enjoy the regular activities, and always appreciate Meg 😍
Great video Cammy! I'm happy if you have an easier day, if there is such a thing. I am also amazed at how you can tell your sheep apart although I probably shouldn't be, it is your job! As always, Meg never disappoints! You are a wonderful team to watch. Glad Sean is getting a puppy. He's so kind to his dogs.
Another great vlog Cammy the lambs are beginning to look themselves as the days go on. Good luck with the rest of the lambing shall be looking in on the progress.
Best wishes from Kentucky Cammy and family!!!🙏
Wow, your new technology is fast very impressive and going to be an awesome tool for you and Lizzy to manage the flock!
I’m new to the channel. I am subscryto the hoof gp and it recommended your videos and I have fell In love with the channel and the sheep. And Meg!! What a wonderful good girl!!! Thanks
From Memphis TN US
Hats off to Meg..What a dog,great job training Cami.
It would so so cool to see Sandi add a couple of blue faced rams to her flock. She was talking recently about needing to replace some rams. The blue faced are beautiful animals and would probably increase wool quality for her newest yarn endeavor.
The sky is just beautiful, I don't think I have ever seen that before!! Love your channel when you are lambing!
My goodness you are moving on up! That wand thing is marvelous what a time saver. Happy Spring to all of you.
beautiful country and you have an amazing dog.. fun to watch her work..
I wanted to add a giant Thank You for taking the time to read your fan mail !! I know you’ve got a full day’s work everyday, so thanks to Lizzie and Jock too for behind the scene support.
Thanks Terrie☺️
Good to see Mum. Love these videos.
Loving the videos!! My first ever dog was a border collie called Jess-she has been the best dog we’ve had the privilege to own us!! She was one in a million-hope your Jess turns out the same 💖.
I'm loving the lambing vlogs, great work!!! You have the patience of a saint too 👍
Your have trained your dog so well. It is amazing!! Love your videos. Sometimes I have trouble with your accent but I crack on.
