"Lambs aren't old enough to understand English". Gave me my first laugh of the morning.
Glad it did. 😂🔥
It's good for all people to see farmers working. Most don't really know how farms work, and how hard it can me. You show that you really look after the animals. It's great to see another type of farm. Here in Western Canada we don't have the same terrain you have. Watching you and your dog bringing the flock down from that mountain is amazing. 🙂❤🐏🐑❤🇨🇦
Very nice of you and great to hear. I have a drone now so hopefully I can get some good shots with that!
Good video. Interesting watching you work. Very interesting to see sheep farming in Ireland.
Great to hear you're enjoying watching!
Nice shout-out from Adrian!
Sure was, over 500 subs since 😂🔥
I'm glad to see your numbers going up.💜💜💜
Thank you Anita! I am too! 🥰🔥
I thought it was quite warm and sunny for late October 😉 I enjoyed your video, your dog is well trained, nice! Have a great week
She listens some of the time. 😭😂 Thank you. 🔥
I was thinking "don't they make gages for sheep shears?" Then I remembered what a hassle it was to try and get one through my poodle's fur and realized why that would never work. 😆
Lol it's not a sinple job full stop Erin. 😂
@@ewetube.videos I know I couldn't do it. My back wouldn't survive shearing even one! But that's why my family did meat goats instead. Much easier.
👍👍Always interesting. Stay well 😁
Thank you Linda. 🥰🔥
Cross lambs are looking grand 🔥🔥
Cheers David!
Addicted.
Great to hear Anthony. 🔥
i seen u down in roscommon at a girls game saturday weird to see someone you have been watching on ur phone to seen them in real life
Should've came to say hello David! 😂🔥
Good video 👍
Cheers Paul!
Good man Karl your videos are very good that’s why I like them before I watch them 👌👌
You're a gent Gary, thank you!
You are right with them animals people 90 percent of the farmer they look after there sheep as it is the your living we have a bit of trouble here there with them sort of people they past a law now if a protester get onto a farm they get a big fine and a mark on them for life
Rightly so too Helen!
Great video enjoy your videos I have only found you recently
I'm delighted to hear Christy. 🥰
Is your wool worth much. Compared to our wool sheep Columbia in USA it seems like your is more hair than wool. Love your videos have been watching a lot of them
Next to nothing Mike! Glad you like them!
Probably find them doing very well come lambing time. Ewes will find shelter in bad weather and lambs obviously will follow them, ewes clipped earlier tend to be happy enough laying in a bare spot letting the lambs take the brute of the April storms
The Mayo Blackface are generally fairly good for finding shelter Conor, they're good mothers. But I get you, it'd be even more of an incentive.
How do you find the automatic dosing gun, I had one and had to return it as it wouldn't fill the barrel correctly and I wasn't sure how many mils they were getting.
There are shite ones out there. If you get one by NJ Phillips you won't have those issues. They also have service kits. I think one of our drench guns is 20+ years old
Agreed, huge difference between a good and a bad one. I must try those Eamon!
Any of ye try the fancy ones they have in the UK yet? Where you hook it into the side of the sheeps mouth.
Can you buy a comb that rides an inch off the sheep , so it rides automatically 1 or 2 inches off the skin?
No, 1-2mm yes but not 1 or 2 inches 😁
Is there a texture difference in the bread of sheep you raise opposed to other breeds? It looks softer.
The fibre is thicker, if anything it's coarser and closer to hair actually! 5 cent a kilo is all we are getting for it.
@@ewetube.videos as a person who crochets it looks like it would be amazing to work with. Would you ever consider making it into yarn to sale in your merch store?
Is it cobalt b12 along with flukiver u give together
2 separate doses Robert. 👍
Do you use a comb lifter to leave extra wool on, or just freehand it?
Just freehand it Mark, I've never tried one!
Is it a special paint?
Yeah especially for sheep Philip. 👍
I’d loved to hear them when they learn english😂
Ah we'll have them sold by then Elizabeth 😂😂
