[@jilljunkala8132]

Am going through the videos slowly but surely, thank you for doing all of these! -Jill

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Jill!

[@gillianshackleford4624]

I am watching your video's from the beginning, I watch Sandi Brock and she mentioned you so I thought I would subscribe, keep up the good work

[@TheSheepGame]

There are a few videos for you to get through Gillian, enjoy watching

[@Hailstonepie]

Me too from the start.

[@debjukes5548]

She’s a good mom,babies are adorable with the spots!

[@aidanelliott6228]

Brilliant clip Aidan 👍🐑🐑🐕

[@ChoochooseU]

Imma new sheep 🐑 fan and binging on some oldies but goodies- just wanted to say that again- I enjoy your accent and dialect so much and don’t want you to change for us by using the Queens 👸 English but did wonder if you’ve ever closed captioned yourself to see what it does 😂 cracks me up what it interprets you saying

[@KarenGreene51]

Cammy...you are so handsome with your new haircut...bloody brilliant!!

[@TheSheepGame]

haha It's got a deadline now.... 20th June it gets shaved off! =D

[@alastairwallis9499]

Just found your video. They look really good. Looking forward to more.

[@TheSheepGame]

Alastair Wallis Thanks mate i appreciate the comment!

[@bobbieg3220]

Yes I watch Sandi Brock too and she recommended your channel. I subscribed and am enjoying watching you very much.

[@TheSheepGame]

Good to know you are enjoying the channel Bobbie 👍

[@andywhf8249]

Great video again mate

[@robertsndral956]

Good scanning in bonny Scotland 👍🏿from an Norwegian sheep farmer 🐑🇳🇴😜

[@TheSheepGame]

Not such a crazy high percentage like you guys get!!

[@robertsndral956]

Agree with you , but I need a little bit over 210 % too get 2 lamb from the mountain in the autumn 🤑

[@evelyncraft1361]

Very interesting! I watch a Canadian sheep farmer (whom I love!) who also scans pregnant ewes, but she doesn’t record the number of unborn babies in each ewe. I think it would be a good thing to know before delivery. I’m going to suggest it to her. I don’t understand a lot of what you say, but I LOVE listening to you!! I’m one of those slow talking southerners! But I’ve been to Scotland, fell totally in love with the country, and love living a bit of Scotland through your videos! Keep up the good work!!

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks very much for the kind comment Evelyn. We use the numbers for management purposes. Ewes with 1 lamb get fed less than ewes with 3 lambs. I have started typing up subtitles for my new videos so i hope that helps in future. I’m also making a real effort to speak slower and clearer. 😁

[@ellenl.5581]

@@TheSheepGame Hi, new subscriber sent by Sandy Brock in Canada. I am American from west coast California. I was horrified by the way you put youself in danger lifting those sheep. Brace or not. If you want to do this for very long you need to figure out another way. A ramp of some kind. A stairway with hand rails, perhaps Your subtitle typer needs fired.They only thing they didn't do that was right was include swear words. I've seen others do that. I don't mind misspelling if it means words that are close to what is being said. I could understand you way more. Thanks for the enjouable vid.

[@chrisneedham5803]

Just subscribed. Like your channel...... I had a pet ram once it was a massive Clun/Gritstone cross.

[@timothydavidson9182]

Brilliant videos,keep on making them please.

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Tim!!

[@999Giustina]

Lol! No need to scan the Jacob ewe. Too cute.

[@Hailstonepie]

Really great vid, no fast forward and not too long yapping.

[@TheSheepGame]

Haha finally got one that meets the requirements ☺️

[@viscache1]

Cami....: “Treat them like a pregnant woman”.....So you’re saying that if your pregnant ewe gets the urge for Alfalfa hay topped with grain and a shot of mineral drench at 3:28AM you jump out of bed and rush to the all-night farm shop in town and race back only to find her sleeping soundly and dreaming of chocolate hay pellets? ...for instance...?

[@annathornburn4716]

Good result! I hope it’s a nice easy lambing time for you! I’ve had a whole five 🤣 with a tup lamb for this year, god knows he was keen but it’ll be in the lap of the gods if any are actually pregnant!

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Anna you will find out soon enough! Hope it goes well!!

[@annathornburn4716]

An agonising wait until May 😂🙈 rough as a badgers arse up here, trying to be kind to them with better weather? If that’s a thing in Scotland! No good for my patience though 🤪

[@jldisme]

Thank you for the video! What is your favorite whiskey?

[@Massey_Fferguson]

big rugby lad there with the uni accent lol

[@guilhallfarm]

I defo think your right about perfect scanning is 180%. I run 800 mules and they scanned at 206% have so many bloody triplets. Not looking forwards to the milk powder bill

[@sheepdogman1]

Foster them on your singles

[@aidanelliott6228]

I understand cammy regarding not easy to get farmers to fast their ewes/but here In Ireland ewes not fasted no shearing Simple as that next to they will have them fasted 🐑✅ Aidan donegal

[@aidanelliott6228]

Could you please forward me the link having problems getting the most updated version Cheers Aidan

[@deirdrecollender5531]

great video as always. You said - when the lambers arrive - I thought you were the lamber! What's your first name? Love the music you use. Looking forward to the next blog! JP South Ireland

[@TheSheepGame]

Deirdre Collender - I have an English lass come up to help me lamb. Makes life a lot easier!! Cameron is my first name. Thanks for the feedback!!

[@deirdrecollender5531]

@@TheSheepGame Thanks for that, I'm JP - Deirdre is the wife, she helps with lambing too!!

[@TheSheepGame]

Deirdre Collender - Cheers JP. My lamber does all the hard work so I can mess about with a camera 😂!!

[@tammysarrazin7078]

i watch a channel called papa pepper he has 4 horned sheep its cool to see them

[@debjukes5548]

Do you mark them with different colours for as many lambs they will have?

[@TheSheepGame]

Yes we usually leave twins with no mark, then triplets get a green dot and singles a red. I think that's what we do, I nearly forget each year! 🙈😂

[@andywhf8249]

How do you tell when they got fluke then.?

[@TheSheepGame]

andy WHF The most accurate / scientific way would be to take dung samples to your vet for them to test. It’s quick and cheap. There are several simple signs u can look out for. Sheep going extremely lean is one of them. Bottle jaw (looks like a puffy fluid in jaw) is another. If you are seeing these symptoms though it means you have left it too long. The sheep can recover but often they will throw or reabsorb there lambs. It’s hard for them to put on weight when the lambs drain so much from them. Better to just dose at regular intervals throughout winter with appropriate drench. This time of year a Closantel based drench is good.

[@ajrwilde14]

it all looked good until I saw the docked tails, here in North Wales they're mostly undocked - can't you do likewise?

[@TheFamilyFarm1]

No we cant wee need them docked in Scotland as the haggis nibble on the bottom of the tail if thay are left to long

[@shanebreen6928]

Do u ever use stockhome tar to prevent fox

[@TheSheepGame]

Shane Breen to prevent fox? Not sure i know what you mean.

[@shanebreen6928]

It's a tar i put on lambs back the foxes won't touch the lamb was just asking do u do anything like that

[@TheSheepGame]

Shane Breen ah right, no mate i don’t. Just got to hope mum protects them 😁

[@stevenohagan3463]

How much does your scanning setup cost?

[@TheSheepGame]

Steven Ohagan £10k for machine. Maybe £1500-£2500 for crate. Then trailer be £2k+.

[@stevenohagan3463]

@@TheSheepGame Thanks

[@jamesrivis620]

Last section was inaudible. That’s one hell of an accent laddie. Is that a west coast dialect ? I am ex English and catch about 60-70% but Americans / Canadians will lose 95% haha. I am a big fan of Andy Stewart. of Silly Wizard so have gotten a bit used to it.

[@davidnicolson6443]

Been very wet here too

[@jamesrivis620]

West Coast dialect is it ? I ‘ll guarantee that North Americans will barely comprehend 10%...as an ex English Brit I get about 65-75%. But then I am a huge Andy Stewart (Silly Wizard) fan and always loved this song .... kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmLSfaGXoKmIo6s so I knew right away what a ‘yow’ was lol.

[@TheSheepGame]

haha yes west coast! The Silly Wizard original is, of course, amazing too!

[@mastinomama8939]

Come on! I am German (ok, raised bilingual), and even I understand most of what Cameron says. Itgets better with each video you watch, so keep following!

[@MimiGardens]

I love accents and have traveled a bit so even as an Ohio girl, I get about 90% of your words unless there is a lot of background noise. Some of your countrymen are a bit harder.

[@TheSheepGame]

That's good going Mary! 👍

What are you saying❓👂

Where is your hair?.🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱

I sheared it off ✂️🐑

[@joshstrycharczyk7207]

Great result! Are you using any abortion vaccines?

[@TheSheepGame]

About 150 of these were bought in as gimmers and some may have had a vaccine. My own 40+ home bred gimmers have not had any vaccines and have only had a double hep vac. Probably should be doing my ewe lambs to cover them but...….

[@ajrwilde14]

don't give them any, vaccines are a con
