Hi just stumbled across your video ..I farm a bit further up cumbria .... I really enjoyed seeing you and the family selling your sheep and being at the auction.... I can't begin to imagine how hard it must be to farm ...run a house and raise all those children!! But they're a pleasant well mannered bunch and a credit too you... lost my parents when I was young and ran the farm by myself for yrs ... things were pretty tough in a few ways ... I Met a farmers daughter pretty much by accident at a local auction and after a slow start we have been irritating each other for 5 yrs now!!... I only mention this as I hope your partner realises how lucky he is too have you and all you have given him he's a lucky man... keep up the good work...👍

Came to your channel from the podcast FbF. Great content and great to hear more from Oliver. Never had an interest in farming previously and so the terminology is a little bit alien, if you could do a video on the terms and the meanings that would be amazing. Keep up the hard work and get Oliver to get infront of the camera more, makes me laugh. Me and my 7year old daughter are addicted to the channel now.

@geraldbeard8562 ай бұрын
at those prices i think your better off selling store lambs.......so long as your getting £90+. i think it partly depends on your farm cos your a hill farm you will struggle to fatten things without the cake bag and as you pointed out in earlier videos by the time you buy lorry loads of feed + straw etc there's not much gain. if you had a lowland farm and good quality grass and your own grain and straw might be a different story. i sell all my cattle as stores and you can send a whole load at once different sizes and condition straight off grass or silage in winter and its less hassle, go down the fattening route and your running around with 2or3 here and there as and when there ready but its adding to your work load for not much gain sometimes

I think you need to get them to 50kg live weight in your yard, when you get to the mart they will lose 2kg a head standing about, so 48kg should get you £130 quid a piece.

The children are all brilliant, looks like Jim is a future kick boxer and Mabel is a proper little mum to her siblings. I love it how you let them get dirty and have fun! As for asking Oliver his opinion on the price for the lambs, I knew what he would reply before he opened his mouth! 😂 Another great video Sam x

Your accounts for fattening lambs £13.60 a month is fair but your lambs is only worth £50/60 that you got last year , so after a month it cost £75 second month £ 90 that’s the break even price
