Your eyes light up when you get affirmation you’re doing well. You’re comeback was, “Carissa did all the work.” BUT you were the one who recognized a good hire when you saw one. And that, dear one, is a sign of a great and successful manager!
@@marilynbridges8697 not all illness are sharable. If you eat bad food and get food poisonings you can't share it with anyone else. (other than letting them eat the bad food).
People who say that animals don't feel pain must have part of their brains and or hearts missing. Seriously, undoubtedly animals feel pain, just as we do. They have souls, they have brains, thus they feel pain. It's only logical and one would have to be blind not to see it.
@@Parakeetfriend4215 they used to perform open heart surgery on new borns without anaesthetic because they thought they couldn't feel pain, and for years there was (and in some areas still is) a false belief that black and aboriginal people didn't feel the same amount if pain as white people and would get horrific treatment in hospital. Even now, you're far less likely to be taken seriously if you're in pain if you're a black woman, which is why the pregnancy mortality rate is much higher especially in the US than of white women.
Not all animals feel emotional pain. Thats a particular part of the brain and not all animals have it or use it the same way we do. More intelligent animals feel emotional pain etc, apes, dolphins but animals with smaller brains and intelligence don't really feel emotional pain because they don't have the capability etc fish, snails, worms.
I appreciate you showing us the difficulties despite your fears of people's reactions. These are the harsh realities, and it's important we see those too, just as much as the good days.
Don't worry about what the "experts" on youtube say. You are doing what you feel in your heart is best. You are in communication with a vet. Sending prayers❤
I love how you treat your sheep with dignity and respect and how kind and lovingly you nurse your sick sheep.. Don't give up like Winston Churchill said.....Never give up!!!!!!
Hi Sandi! It always hurts when something happens with our animals. We KNOW you are doing everything you possibly can AND the fact that you get upset, worry, second-guess yourself, etc, only proves how much you love these animals. If you didn't care, you wouldn't try so hard to save them. I am glad to see ZERO negative comments or thumbs down. It had BETTER stay that way! You deserve only positivity. Stay strong! Stay healthy!
I’m sorry you have not been having a good day. I’m glad you show us what really happens with sheep. That talks guts to do thank you. You are awesome and please keep being awesome.
@@SandiBrock and you don't sugar coat things for us!! You are truthful and honest!! You are a true Canadian and I have the upmost respect and admiration for you!!❤🇨🇦❤🇨🇦❤
I think by showing the bad stuff you're being true to yourself and the people that watch your content. Anyone who keeps animals either for business or as pets knows that difficult decisions have to be made and it's really hard and emotional for us and that's because we care and fight to keep them alive when sometimes the animals best interest is to let them go. We can see how much you love your sheep and you give them a chance when I imagine others wouldn't so please dont beat yourself up about it 💕
Thanks so much, just feels hard to share when I just had to put a ewe down not that long ago. Discouraging, but you're right. Its farming and some days can be tougher than others.
Seeing you break down when you realized the rams were in with the ewe lambs brought me to tears. Wish I could've reached through the screen and given you a hug! 💙 Megan in North Carolina 💙
Hi Sandi 🙋🏻♂️ Great video it shows that your a true farmer and how much you really care! You show the real things that happen on the farm! It’s always a sad and hard time to have sick animals or even worse losing them but, like my dad always use to say you can try as hard as you possibly can and do everything that should be done but yet there is always something that happens and your going to lose some! The only way your not going to have another sick sheep or lose another sheep is to not have any sheep ! The fact is your raising a living product and at any given time it can die ! That’s how farm life is wether it’s grain or livestock it’s a living product that’s one step away from perfection or disaster! You just have to keep your chin up and be proud of all that you have done. Just look at that awesome set of lambs you just weaned they would not look like that if it wasn’t for your care from conception to weaning! 😎
I so love watching how you sort the sheep. Sick animals are always distressing. You are a wonderful sheep Mommy. Your patience and kindness and not giving up is admirable. There are many people that would not give an animal this much time or try. Hugs and luv
I work with horses and have had days like you showed here. I usually find a quiet place to go and have a good cry. Gets the frustration out and then I am able to just get on with it. Hugs!
Awww Sandi. I just want to offer you a hug at moments like this. Its so clear that you love your sheep, That just shines through at moments like this. And I can tell your heart is heavy. I am so sorry for those tough tough days. :(
Sandy, you are a great sheep mum. A old man told me many years ago, stock owners must expect losses no matter how well we treat them. You are doing a great job girl. Onwards and upwards, can’t wait for my hoodie to arrive, i will be a sheepishly me banner in Oz.🤗🙏
I so wish I could have seen this video about 4 months ago. One of my favorite goats went down with listeriosis. She hadn’t been down long when I found her. In the summer our goats are on pasture and rotated every week so no real reason for her to get this. She didn’t make it but your videos help me know that I’m really not failing, sometimes things just happen. Bless you and your kind ❤️
It's never easy to lose, whether it's a family member of the human race race, fur baby or farm animal... they are all loved and well cared for. You are a strong woman, and care to your best ability and with your vet's guidance, giving everything you can to your sheep. I love seeing the sheep standing back watching as you were treating their young friend. Thanks for sharing your time with us again. Best of luck with the listeriosis situation, and hope there's no further outbreak. My days are complete with Sandi and her sheep!!
I have been watching ur videos for the last 2 days every chance I can. Thank u for the content I really enjoy it. You are such a wonderful person@ plz remember ur human and these things happen. Sending much love
I love coming on to RUclips and seeing that Sandi Brock has uploaded a video it makes my day 10x better keep doing what your doing because your amazing
Yes very much so. A source for your Listeria could very much so be corn silage. I went through a bad issue here. But that year we used open packing. Lost two cows to it. We now use bagging like you and have not had this show up again. Any feed source that has potential to mold can be your primary source. Hang in there Sandi. Love your openness and honesty with all your viewership. And am intrigued with your operation under roof.
Because thats what we do .... try until the end... we are the keepers !! Most anyone with livestock knows your determination to help and try ... you are a great example of the compassion we as producers have for our livestock !!
I agree white lights, but like you I have coloured. I am enjoying the lights that are going up more then ever this year. Hang in there Sandie, sending good vibes your way.🍁
Moves to my cottage by the river for a while and unfortunately will not be able to see what you are doing for a while will and miss this yes. Has no internet in the cottage and the mobile only works sometimes but it is nice sometimes that no one can reach one. May I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and see you again when I come to Luleå again at the beginning of next year?
Sandi you are always on top of things with your information. Well done the way you care for your sheep. They are lucky to have you. Happy Birthday to Jack 🥳.
You are amazing I don't know anyone that can do what you do my sister's good with work and stuff and never stops neither do you and most of the time you're on your own doing it just remember you are amazing that's why I watch your show I can't believe there are women out there that can do what you do on your own
Sandi, I’m so sorry about your sheep!! It’s awful to lose one, never mind several! You are an amazing person, and take care of your sheep the best way you and your Vet can! I wouldn’t mind to be an admin for your channel and filter all the idiots who hide behind computer screens to be nasty! I hope your sweet ewes start feeling better! Much love to you and your flock! Kristin from Oklahoma 💗💗💗
I can tell you care about your sheep and you are doing your best to get them thru this. I will pray they pull thru. Hang in there and ignore any negative comments saying that you are doing something wrong. Sometimes stuff just happens, especially with living things. Hugs!
You know those air balloons by car dealerships with the arms and they sway back and forth. When you move your sheep with your arms flaying up and down I laugh EVERY TIME. Lol to cute
sandi.my wife and i watch you on youtube. your show delights us . the sound of your sheep and your smile are a blessing. we thank you for sharing with us, gene and keitha michigan usa.
Glad to see Goat and the ewes seem to be trying to comfort you. They seemed to know something is wrong. I could see they were keeping a careful watch on you and a few ewes came up close to you. It looked like they were trying to see what was going on with you.
Spending your time to help sick animals or humans is always worth it because even if they pass away you know they felt love and hope to the end. Farming is like nursing birth to death. Remember keep some of your love for yourself you are doing good Sending hugs from Australia
When my goats show these symptoms, I treat for both listeriosis and polio. Double whammy. Knock on wood, I havent had a case in 5+ years. God bless Sandi. Farming can be heartbreaking.
Sandi you can’t beat yourself up over losing sheep. It’s all part of having animals. Trust me! We feel your pain as well. You have done a great job with your herd. Thank you for sharing with us how you manage your farm.
I'm sorry for loss you carry about every one sheep it it happens to the best of people to their animals you tried everything you could and to those haters out there just because you raise livestock for people's food doesn't mean they don't care about the animal that they're raising if you watch this enough you'll know Sandy you're a great person so don't worry those haters cuz I really don't know we love you
You have to do what you can to save them. Even more so because of the earlier ewe. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose but you fight for them. Don't ever just throw up your hands and say I'm not trying. Do what you can. Thank you for your honesty.
Hi Sandi. Nurse here. It would be best to remove all the urine, feces and contaminated hay from a pen before putting in another group of sheep. Diseases can be passed easily from feces and surfaces from one group of animals to another. Also, wash all the water buckets/containers too. I know what it's like to work with sick beings and it is very stressful. Keep up the good work!
Hi again SANDI So hard when these kind of things suddenly happen. You can only follow the protocol and do your best. Can't do better then that!! It just really sucks when it's fast and catches you off guard. The hardest part about raising animals for sure. But everyone else looks great so best to concentrate on them and your next plans. So sorry Sandi... Hang in there!
Hei Sandi, sorry to see those two sheep, and for no you are doing the best you can. Farmers around here have to watch out for caturin and poop in their silage and hay, if the sheep eat food with that in it and get sick the symtom is the same as your sheep. Love the vids, keep it up and forward, love from Norway.
Sandi, listeria is caused by cold climates and mold in their food. We are with you through the ups and downs. Always! Love you and keep your head up ❤️
Happy Birthday jack, and Congrats to the cool parents Sandi and Mark. :) I've been around farming my entire life and i even found this hard to watch. But some things are just out of ones control. It's hard not to take it personally but that's the farmer in you Sandi. I remember as a 10 year old staying up all night on calf watch waiting for the herd to start calving. It was an amazing experience but i'll never forget the ones that didn't make it.
I’m sorry you’re going through that. I lost 6 of my does who found wilted wild cherry leaves ...I didn’t even know the tree was on the other side of the fence. They died suddenly...I still tear up when I think of my sweet babies.
Our son lost his 4H steer the afternoon we were headed to the fair with him, as a result of getting into nightshade plants in the pasture. So hard to take!
I'm so sorry for this situation but head up,you are strong woman with big heart. God will provide and resolve this hard situation for your ladyes,be blessed dear Sandy 💖💖💖
Ack! It never fails that you put a few good days together, then this.This is the life of a stock person and it sometimes really sucks but most of the time it is rewarding. Thank you for your transparency. I remember those awful days well. My heart goes out to you.
Ms Sandi, try as you can, every once in awhile nature I'll rear her ugly head. I have had livestock my whole life, you are amazing with your care. Hug yourself.. I suspect a lot of your negative comments are from non livestock owning people. Love you.🥰🥰
Sandi, your best is not always “good enough” as each animal has to have the “will” to get better. Like us humans that “will” is always different in each one. Praying that the SOP will be enough to pull them through. Be safe and good luck. It is always to hard to loose the animals, sorry.
Oh, so sad to see the sheep sick like that. I can't imagine how it makes you feel being their shepherd. Dont let the negative comments fill your head. Just focus on what you are doing you believe to be right. You know what's best for your sheep. I pray their suffering eases.
Food for thought....... How about making knitted cold weather headbands with the black fleece and then sew an embroidered patch with Billy on it? I would buy the first one!
Your eyes light up when you get affirmation you’re doing well. You’re comeback was, “Carissa did all the work.” BUT you were the one who recognized a good hire when you saw one. And that, dear one, is a sign of a great and successful manager!
Beautifully said!!!❤🇨🇦❤🇨🇦❤
Cattle prod.. Ahh that makes me cry. Poor baby.
I love how Goat is giving you some love because she may sense that you need it. She's saying 'you're doing a good job Mom'!!
Yes, but part of SOP needs to be immediate separation, if only with your panels, to minimize any sharing of germs.
I thought so too!
@@marilynbridges8697 not all illness are sharable. If you eat bad food and get food poisonings you can't share it with anyone else. (other than letting them eat the bad food).
I agree about Goat, She senses your destress and is being helpful by being "Goat".
Years ago, vets used to believe that animals could not feel pain, physical or emotional. Your compassion honours their spirit.
People who say that animals don't feel pain must have part of their brains and or hearts missing. Seriously, undoubtedly animals feel pain, just as we do. They have souls, they have brains, thus they feel pain. It's only logical and one would have to be blind not to see it.
It’s worse than that they say babies in the whom don’t feel pain..
@@Parakeetfriend4215 they used to perform open heart surgery on new borns without anaesthetic because they thought they couldn't feel pain, and for years there was (and in some areas still is) a false belief that black and aboriginal people didn't feel the same amount if pain as white people and would get horrific treatment in hospital.

Being an empath means feeling everything. Blessing and a curse. Guard your heart. You re doing good
So true! Thanks Julie!
I so agree!
*nods* precisely!
It will be a challenge to protect the heart some days are harder than others. But keep working on it just like everything else and you will get it. 👍🏼

Sandy when you are giving those down sheep water I love the sheep’s reaction in the background it’s like they’re coaxing you both on to feel better
Did anyone else's brain go haywire watching her operate that gate there's no way I would go into a complete meltdown.
You need a good memory of who's who & who goes where on sorting day!
She was very good at operating that gate!
Your soul is so beautiful. It’s what makes you so loved. And I know those animals feel that compassion and love ❤️

I'm so sorry for this situation but head up,you are strong woman with big heart. God will provide and resolve this hard situation for your ladyes,be blessed dear Sandy 💖💖💖
Ack! It never fails that you put a few good days together, then this.This is the life of a stock person and it sometimes really sucks but most of the time it is rewarding. Thank you for your transparency. I remember those awful days well. My heart goes out to you.
Ms Sandi, try as you can, every once in awhile nature I'll rear her ugly head. I have had livestock my whole life, you are amazing with your care. Hug yourself.. I suspect a lot of your negative comments are from non livestock owning people. Love you.🥰🥰
Sandi, your best is not always “good enough” as each animal has to have the “will” to get better. Like us humans that “will” is always different in each one. Praying that the SOP will be enough to pull them through. Be safe and good luck. It is always to hard to loose the animals, sorry.
Dont give up your doing good I love to see new I know it hard but you got this
Awe. Happy Birthday to Jack! He's 1 day younger than my son, Jacob!
Oh, so sad to see the sheep sick like that. I can't imagine how it makes you feel being their shepherd. Dont let the negative comments fill your head. Just focus on what you are doing you believe to be right. You know what's best for your sheep. I pray their suffering eases.
Food for thought.......
How about making knitted cold weather headbands with the black fleece and then sew an embroidered patch with Billy on it? I would buy the first one!
I like your pen set up. I was amazed at how easily you could separate the herd. You certainly know your animals.
