First store lamb sale !! Good or bad trade ???? Sheila learning the ropes at 12 days old

First store lamb sale !! Good or bad trade ???? Sheila learning the ropes at 12 days old
Hello 👋
Welcome to Sam Shutt Farming, daily life on the Hill farm
This is Sam and Oliver plus 4 children farming beef sucklers and sheep in the North Yorkshire/Cumbria border area.
We are first-generation farmers, and we've had no help at all to get to where we are now. We are here to show you our life and what we do. I am also here to show new entrance that it is possible to start from scratch. Being strong-willed, determined, and a lot of hard work, you can do it.
We are both from farming backgrounds. I grew up on a family dairy farm. Milking from a very young age.Working for my uncle when i left school. I've learnt everything from him and grown ever since. I met Oliver when I was 16 he was 15. We started with a few sheep when we met and have built up over the 16 years to where we are now. We took on a 500-acre hill farm in 2019, currently 5 years into the tenancy.
Also, here to show people women can be useful in the agricultural world.😉😁

[@oldfarmhorace1]

Hay making has changed so much. Dad made haystacks with loose hay before the war. Had to be careful during the war because the Germans had put anti glider defences in his field which were wires strung between telephone poles connected to big French artillery shells. He had to be careful not to catch them on the top of the load. I was in the time of small bales and I can remember haymaking with horses.

[@Sam-shutt]

@oldfarmhorace1 ah wow love going back in time. I hear loads of stories from my grandma aswell 😃😃

[@mykesherman3471]

Great store auction for you at Benthams As I’ve said in previous videos You breed them, feed them clip them, water them make sure they are healthy 🐑 And when we eat them they are tasty A nice lamb Shank with peas, beens roast potatoes and plenty of mint sauce etc Sheila is contented ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Sam-shutt]

@joanne26 yes absolutely best tasting lamb there is 😍 someone will take these on and fatten them slightly then sell into the food chain I would of thought.

[@user-ix8cy7yn4l]

Practical and awesome at the same time Sam and you on that tractor hood, 12 days after giving birth 😮 ❤ I believe the sign is not straight 😂 but who cares, it’s on.

[@Sam-shutt]

[@DavidGadsby-e6s]

Grear prices, but nice looking stores.

[@mittw1054]

Where can I get a sam shutt window sticker from,for me tw10 😂😂

[@timlane831]

Lamb price seems cheap compared to lincolnshire. Love the videos thank you

[@Sam-shutt]

@timlane831 cheap! ?? Oh ok. This is the first store lamb sale not sure what they weighed prob around the 30-35kg mark

[@nicholascummins4430]

Great video ,Sheila is a lovley quiet baby you are so lucky,great price for the lambs,what weight were they they looked to be cracking lambs.you take care you are back working as hard as ever.

[@Sam-shutt]

@nicholascummins4430 we don't have any scales and they don't weigh store lambs but my guess would be around 30-35kg. I've had plenty time off 🤣🤣

[@user-bf4tp3fs5d]

How is she❤❤❤

[@georgedoorley5628]

u got a good price for the lambs .........do they weigh them in the mart ? not too many marts here would give you credit for stock ........they all have been burnt too often ..... were there any fat lambs at the sale ?........what were they making. ? factories have pulled the heart out of the lamb price here over the last few weeks down to 7.30 euro now .....same as last year ...store lambs sale have not started here yet as such ........ no grass any where at the moment .......too dry and harsh , rained yesterday all day but you would not know it tonight , cold also 10 c at 10 pm

[@kierancooney5663]

I'd you can let us know the weight sex and price of both stores and factory in the future it would be much appreciated .at the moment in the rep Ireland our processors has pulled factory lambs 42 euro in the space of a month . And it's not because of the number coming out .there's 70 k.springs killed less that this time last year. And with the said it's going to pull the price of stores back. Processors are putting sheep farmers out of business eighter cutting back on the size of breeding ewes or out altogether in on farmers lips.

[@Sam-shutt]

@georgedoorley5628 not sure what they weigh as they don't weigh store lambs. Iam guessing around the 30kg mark. Fat lamb sales are a Wednesday night on bentham auction live stream on youtube if you fancy watching that ? Prob catch it next week now. Fat price has dropped £30 they have been on fire for weeks . Up to £180 a lamb

[@user-qv6iu1rj8y]

How times change farm safety inspector took me to court and they fined me a thousand pounds for having the children in cab 30yrs ago

[@michaelhartley9450]

Fab again Sam a good price at Bentham for lambs and Shiela is coming on a treat she will be driving a tractor before she can even walk at this rate 😂

Why does Oliver need the stick ? Jimmy and Nancy will get in the ring soon enough...if that's permitted by the auctioneer.

[@Sam-shutt]

@jimmyjohnstone5878 it's his lucky selling stick as u can see he has it for everything he sells there aloud in but he was under pressure not knowing price they make so maybe next time 😅

[@geraldbeard856]

one of the other youtubers said the other day 'oh children aren't aloud in the tractor cab until there 13'........i pressume they meant 13 days old not 13 years old🤣🤣. looks like decent trade for sheep but then we need every penny don't we

[@Sam-shutt]

@geraldbeard856 🤣🤣 my book it's 13 days old and if someone reports me cos I break the law so be it. I will get the law changed 🤣 yes but you want them up there. Fat price will go up again no dougt.

[@geraldbeard856]

@@Sam-shutt i was riding around in the tractor cab with my dad many years ago when tractor cabs were far less safe and secure and quiet as they are nowadays way before i was 13 infact i was driving the tractors myself way before i was 13

[@Sam-shutt]

@geraldbeard856 best way !! They Learn fast and have to think for themselves

[@charlesta654]

i think the law is they are not allowed to drive the tractor up to the age over 13.someone correct me if im wrong??

[@Sam-shutt]

@charlesta654 no not aloud any passenger under age of 13 And on a quad bike you have to be 16 🙄

[@shanecroke7682]

What weight were the lambs? That was a good price for store lambs

[@Sam-shutt]

@shanecroke7682 not sure we don't have any scales but iam guessing around the 30kg mark

[@abbiejones1843]

I Dont care what people say kids are far more safer in the tractor cab where you can see them than in the farm yard where you can't see them especially with these big tractors about.

[@Sam-shutt]

@abbiejones1843 absolutely I want the law changed on this

[@johndaniell887]

hi sam I don't like the way your unhappy husband Oliver hitting the lambs with a stick it'd not on some one may hit him with a stick see iff he likes it

[@georgedoorley5628]

man child ........end of story ..!

[@Sam-shutt]

@johndaniell887 he's happy 😊 have to keep the lambs moving somehow. He uses his selling stick every auction sale

hes not hitting them hes tapping them theres a big difference.if you dont like to see farming life as it is stick to countryfile
