    I loved seeing all the friends and family coming together for a big job. It reminds me of my own childhood. My parents owned a small landscaping business with my mom handling the logistics side and my dad being the main labor and designer but we all did work for the company from me and my siblings to my cousins and aunt/uncles. I have fond memories of going with my siblings on jobs planting, trimming, mowing, creating flower beds, making garden furniture, and building custom water features. It was hard, sweaty work but it was so rewarding to see a job well done and learn at their side.

Shearing in the heat with the wool and flies looks like one itchy afternoon to me. Never been close to sheep or a sheep farm ever.

      Have you ever attempted to reduce your fly burden by using a series of baited traps? They aren't that expensive to operate and even a reduction by 25% would reduce the body weight loss to the flock due to being bothered.

    I am from arkansas USA and I knew nothing about sheep farming but I watched videos from UK Scotland Canada Australia New Zealand it is fascinating how everyone does it different and shearing is amazing but watching you guys scanning it was something else I never saw that before
    My family has cattle and we had chicken houses 60,000 birds gathered fertile eggs for broilers at peak up to 48,000 eggs a day it took the whole family to get it done we rotated up to 15 people to cover the job 365 days a year. 7 days a week and some had jobs off the farm
    Keep up the good work and I really like seeing places you travel to to scan and shear amazing how you do all that

    That was a hard day. The wool price is probably still very low but the sheep need shorn for their well being. Hopefully the treatments applied will keep the insect pests off them for a while, until winter temperatures give the sheep relief anyhow.

    It is always a pleasure to watch your presentations, and you show how things really are. May I suggest you invite inexperienced Theresa Coffee - arrogant and well out of depth to stand and watch you and another “ clever” …….Chris Packham stand at the edge of the fly ridden Woodside next to the sheep covered in flies graft under these pretty horrible conditions, and get a real taste of doing a great job for the welfare of your sheep! They wouldn’t last a minute!
    Years ago I knew a sheep man who partially filled a 45 gallon drum with an undiluted fly dip, place a rabbit netting wire over the top of the drum, then a piece of rotten, rancid meat, which attracted flies by the thousand, who gorged on the meat, fell through mesh straight into the dip - bingo - job done ! This was along a Woodside and it helped enormously!
    Once again, great to watch your presentations and good luck to you all for the future!

    Have you considered using fly parasites to knock down the number of them on your property? If started early in the season they can make a huge difference, along with larger reusable non toxic fly traps. We're exposed to lots of types biting flies here and these two methods are awesome in knocking down the population. When first using, the fly parasites seem expensive, but over a fairly short time you will save it back from prevention of injuries from fly strike , labor, and chemical fly products.

    Hello Cammy
    I really enjoy watching your videos and seeing all the hard work that yourself and team do. My daughter and I enjoyed meeting you at the Highland Show.
    I work at a Rural College where we train young people the best practice of handling sit aside and sit astride ATVs. We highlight the number of deaths on quad bikes alone which could be prevented by the wearing of helmets. I notice in your videos that your staff and yourself choose not to wear one. This is by no means a criticism and very much personal choice whether to wear one or not. Would you be willing to help change the culture of not wearing helmets to help protect lives? Perhaps by adopting the use of helmets or by doing a wee video promoting the safety aspect of wearing them. You have become an ambassador to farming and I appreciate any help you could offer in highlighting this. Thank you.
