[@sharonsweeney5335]

I love the way u show the good ,the bad and the truth i m from mayo and just getting a few sheep now

[@sheepschool365]

Thank you.. good luck with your sheep 👌

[@vwvw4]

Lucky Robbie's there to climb that hill for you and Pops does a nice job, considering she's your first border collie. Most people haven't a clue how to train a BC; good advice for new shepherds is to buy a dog that's already trained by a well-respected dog man/woman and take some lessons with that trainer. It's more expensive, but saves a person a lot of headaches and also saves a pup from being ruined. Maybe get your girls to run a slicker or furminator through your old St Bernard and spruce it up for Christmas.

[@sheepschool365]

Thanks for that 👌

[@Coolcronan]

Lovely views of Croagh Patrick from that new field. Robbie is welcome in Mayo anytime .. Raining here rentlessly also ..

[@sheepschool365]

🤣 Tough conditions for the sheep!

[@Coolcronan]

Still no curses I hadent heard before.

[@saragayle2217]

[@stephenroddy3841]

Go on Robbie, "pup for the puddles" 😂

[@sheepschool365]

The man is built for hardship 🤣

[@seanmcguigan346]

Ffs dont apologise about the lights. If you know anything about farming you will have been there 😂. Great video

[@sheepschool365]

Thanks Sean, dark early these wet days...

[@ronaldlucas5360]

You have a nice system on your farm. Almost 10k subscribers!

[@sheepschool365]

Thank you 👍 Almost there...

[@davidkellet1006]

A dairy farmer had interbred continental gimmers that i couldnt get my hand in to lamb crushed my hand to pain

[@markcoyne6540]

Great videos. I do be looking forward to the next one coming out. Heres a question for ya, i know your trying a Texel ram on 10 ewes as a trial, How would a beltex ram cross back on a Liyne ewe do you think? Or have you heard from other breeders? Thank you and Happy Christas.

[@sheepschool365]

I think beltex would produce shapely lambs but might lack size as neither Lleyn or Beltex are overly big sheep. Plenty of farmers crossing Lleyns with Charollais rams for factory lambs. Can be a little bare at lambing but weight well. Might try them next year. We'll see how the texel cross goes first.... Good luck..👌

[@budnspud]

I'm not sure I'd be able to do what the average sheep farmer does lol. Nice work.

[@sheepschool365]

I try to keep things as easy as possible. Plenty of hardship farming without looking for it...

[@ianinglis5354]

That ankles not getting much rest David

[@paulwoods33]

Comin down at speed 😂

[@gerrymulligan2602]

[@tadhgpheaitwillie]

Great stuff. Robbie is the MAN. The old dog for the hard road!!!

[@sheepschool365]

Thanks 👍. He's a tough one!

[@tadhgpheaitwillie]

@@sheepschool365 He'd have to be to stick the way you work him! 😉 Well done Buddy, keep the great content coming.

[@robertmcdermott241]

Great video. Mind your ankle😂

[@1fiatman]

More of Robbie 😅😅

[@sheepschool365]

👍

[@patrickmurphy6847]

Ewe lambs always difficult to know to keep or sell

[@michellebarbour5777]

Honest. Like this, from the South East of U.K where it's easier but still muddy.

[@sheepschool365]

Wait until you see the latest video. Real mud 🫣

[@salmonhunter7414]

looks like you need a bigger stock trailer. I know

[@sheepschool365]

Definitely. The Toyota would comfortably pull a 16ft with decks. Some day ...🙏

[@cheekyshelly]

16ft would be some job! Is that a 4.2L Toyota?

[@sheepschool365]

Yes. 4.2l turbo. Be well fit for it...

[@colinGuernseyguydunn-bm1lg]

BEAUTIFUL flock of lambs Im starting up with sheep ive worked on my uncles farm he passed away and all farm livestock sold 200 texels exes and 10 rams texels. What advice you would give me in best sheep for beginners

[@sheepschool365]

Hi Colin, Sorry to hear about your uncle. Great to hear you're continuing the farmer! Pick an easy managed breed to start with and don't buy expensive sheep to start out with. There is so much to learn, best doing it on less expensive stock. Good luck 👍

[@davidgilliland2658]

Why do u keep so many ewe lambs

[@sheepschool365]

All kept for breeding hoggets to sell next Autumn. Will need to sell more as lambs moving forward I think!

[@noelleeakins5771]

Brilliant as usual, loving the craic with Robbie! It’s plain to see you love the sheep even though they’d give you grey hairs at times. I started my own small flock of easycare sheep last year and have 10ewe lambs hopefully yeaning next march all going well. Love the content David, learning loads so thanks for sharing. Mind yourself and the ankle.

[@deniskeaney8779]

Easy known them sheep are owned by a Cavan man you know the saying and yes I’m not too far from Cavan originally

[@sheepschool365]

Thanks Denis 😁

[@Oisin1990]

Ewe lambs would give ya a grey hair or 2 !!!

[@tanyajenkins919]

No not a thing she said
