Jumper is being a very good girl cute sheep

i dnt understand a lot but im happy to look @ your face so very beautiful pretty lady :D

that answered almost ALL of my sheep questions!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! One question, do you know what breed or cross breed jumper is?

do you have any sheep I can buy

How dare you give animals a great life and actually feed yourself enough amino acids to keep your brain in-tact and not have muscle fatigue. How dare you get smart fat CLAs & GLAs from lamb meat.

All the lamb I have had in America had that special lamb odor; and I hated eating lamb. In 2001 I had a chance to eat lamb the Sinjiang area of China (near Kazakhstan), and was shocked to discover there is no lamb odor at all, just fragrance of the lamb meat and fat. Do you know what makes the difference on the odor in lamb? Is it the breed? Is it the feed? Or something else? I will be setting up a farm and hope to produce that type of lamb without odor...

seems like a ton more work and cost to raise sheep :(

I don't understand how you can kill these babes! What a funny species we are! No other animal is so hypocritical

Sheers are nice and traditional but can you use electric shavers for example? Is there and industrial one for this kind of work?

Great Video! Enjoy watching your videos!

Do you prefer to butcher your sheep at 3mo? Why? Do you ever butcher meat goats? What age do you prefer for them?

In my opinion, you'd be better off hooking up modern mechanical sheep clippers to a bicycle. Just have someone ride as you use the clippers. Job done in less time and less stress for you and the sheep. It's a quiet setup, uses no fuel so there are no emissions. All good!

I made an animation on growing sheep on my channel if people are interested?

Isn't it easier to just find a job in the city, any job, to make the same money?

Wow you are so pretty.

how big is your property?

EXCELLENT video! Great information with great detail. Lots of questions answered.

Nice motivational and useful video congrats and thanks madam .Sheep and Goat breeding is very profitable and noble profession . For good profit , farmers have to invest less in sheds in the beginning For best economy sheep/Goat sheds and big commercial sheds please visit this channel http://www.youtube.com/user/sheepngoatbreeding

if its hard why not try using a milk machine meant for humans iv seen people use them

I want to get sheep I have never raised sheep before I had goats before I do plan on getting sheep and goats again. but be close to watch your buck sheep and goats if you keep them together the boy goat will breed with the sheep and the sheep ram will breed with the goats sounds strange but it is true.

I miss having goats I really miss them. but I love your vid's but can I ask you a question why do you tie you sheep up I know why you do the 1 but was curious why you tie them up. (Not trying to be rude Just curious).
