LAMB ADOPTION | Vlog 9 - Lambing 2021

[@anneta71]

Cammy only film what you can don't worry about us sitting in our warm homes or where ever we're watching from. You, Lizzie, your sheep and lambs come first. We're all happy and appreciative for what ever footage your able to share and we thank you. The Jacob x Valley black nose is so cute. 🤗

[@katiemcdavid4124]

The slower you talk the better I can understand you. Florida. Lol

[@barbtries]

you're up before dawn and working until well past dark and you blame yourself for not being vigilant enough? I think you're doing an amazing job. you've already saved at least 2 lambs from certain death during this lambing spell. I am enjoying very much. those black and white lambs are too too cute!

[@TartanCatholic]

"some folk do this for pleasure". Cracked me up lol

“Some people do this for pleasure...” 😂 great channel!

[@sisterjanetstrong6214]

Sandi Brock would have never gotten away with a Crack like that. KZbin would have censured her.. I don't know the difference between KZbin in Scotland and in Canada but Sandi seems to be censored for showing a ewe birthing and Cammy doesn't.

[@andacochran8703]

The black nose cross are so cute! Fun for sure. You must be very sleep deprived this week. You are getting the story across very well.

[@midwesternhooftrimmer6735]

Good to see someone willing to take that lamb in from last video!

[@TheSheepGame]

Very vigilant!! Some man! 👍

[@scottp7874]

Ya I know

[@janedaniels7645]

I love the way the lambs’ tails wiggle when they are feeding!

[@Charlotte-ue9sy]

Two Vlogs uploaded on the same day!?!?!?! ❤ What a great day it is!

[@Prismaticlysm]

I'm so glad Sandi introduced her community to you!!! So happy to be here!

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks, hope you enjoy the channel 👍

[@nanalesa24]

Such good Mommy's taking on extras. Oh and the black and white ones, I'm loving them. Happy Day.

[@mcmurphy5]

Some ending 🤣🤣fairplay to your energy, I'm over halfway point lambing and I'm shattered

[@cindyboard7816]

Truly amazing the recovery of the little ewe that had difficulty lambing!!!! I really didn't expect either to live much less to be running around one day later!!!! Stay safe Cammy!!! I enjoy the videos regardless of whether they are choppy or smoothly edited!!!!🐑🐑

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Cindy, Aye amazing how they come around after quite some stress and are now thriving out in the field 😁

[@chrisrisling1748]

Cammy thanks for sharing. Don’t worry about editing your films just continue sharing. But get your rest too!

[@99037149]

You are getting there slowly but surely.

[@ronniecumming7685]

Cammy fantastic video. Hope the "Safety Police" are not watching the "Starsky and Hutch" sketch. James good help, Robbie what a Star. Great stuff keep it up. I know its tuff Lambing and doing the VLOG as well extra pressure on you (keep on it we appreciate it) Keep Lizzy safe..............

[@FromShetoMe]

You're amazing. So enjoy watching you. I know KZbin is a ton of work and I hope you'll be able to get your own farm sooner because of it.

[@katiezilch9424]

Cheviots were how I found your channel originally! Congrats on your lambing season so far!

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Katie

[@chrisrisling1748]

Happy Birthday Robbie! Love from Canada, you are a big help for Uncle and are amazing!

[@danamama6766]

Yes the little black nosed ones are adorable. You have a very big job hard work. And the effort you make for the trying to get babies adopted is wonderful. Very much enjoyed the truck roll, over the fence and flips :-)

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Dana, every lamb would love to have a mum and they do so much better too.

[@danamama6766]

@@TheSheepGame hugs to you for knowing that and caring and your reply brought tears to my eyes DM

[@lindamarshall8279]

Hey Cammy, great video. Don’t worry if you miss a day or two of uploading, you and your sheep are MUCH more important than us viewers. Yes we LOVE ❤️ the vlogs but really, sheep first. Great job with the hung lamb and hopefully the mama sheep will accept the other lamb. Despite all the fluids you put on it she did seem to recognise another smell on it. Fingers crossed 🤞! CONGRATULATIONS by the way on your and Lizzy’s little ‘lamb!’ So happy for you both. I also didn’t know about the the cross transfer of bacteria, interstellar things we learn on your blog. Anyway, enough of my words; except I agree about the the Valais cross twins. I thought they were also for meat so was interested in your just for fun comment. Take care and keep learning, life is rarely perfect! 😀😉

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Linda, should be a few more busy days then the rush will be past 👍

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

oh I just love those black and white lambs! makes me smile with teeth!

[@jessicagunn3870]

The valais x Jacob twins omg! How adorable !!! Are they ewe lambs? Will you be keeping them to breed?

[@Jp12987]

Thanks for sharing videos everyday when your so busy. Really enjoying them. You will have no bother selling the Jacob cross valais lambs they so cute. Great to get the pets adopted on to a sheep so much handier and they thrive far better.

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks James, pet lambs definitely do better on a ewe and less work for us too😁

[@trishhartland5156]

Those cross jacobs are super cute 🥰 I really want cuddles and wow the lamb that survived wow it must be a fighter ❤️ 🐑

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Trish, it is surprising how much a lamb can take with such a tricky birth and still be up drinking 10 mins later 👍

[@alancooper5386]

we are twin 18 year old hog farmers in western Canada almost at full capacity at 22,000 piggies, and today i took the big step and subbed to the sheep game. strange but i like them little lambs, see hundreds of births every day but sheep is something else.

[@herdyshepherd1411]

You are doing great - you cant win them all - and it’s good crack following whilst we are lambing our own

[@ronaldbarrett9148]

Ninja Shepherd . James is doing a good job for you , looks like he is having fun also. Robbie has a few dance moves and looks good in his new clothes. Cheers Cammy and Lizzy.

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Roanld, aye James was keen to come out with his time off from the day job at Easter, something different anyway, Robbie definitely feels part of the team with all the kit on 👍

[@Cellottia]

28:15 Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Cammy The Super Shepherd!!

[@teresabrewer2661]

It on be great Cammie to see your house where you live and show us around your kitchen/livingroom/garden. You must be shattered this time of year especially if your on duty as well. I couldn't believe it when you said you've still not made any profit yet.

[@drob517]

I’m so used to Sandy’s channel that I’m seeing things that I’ve never seen before. The sheep that’s stuck on their backs. Love this channel.

[@wandagrayson646]

I love Jacobs and those cross twins are beautiful! Good spinning wool, Jacobs.

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Jayne

[@anna-lisagirling7424]

OK, here I am because Aaron Lavoy told me to go here. I'm so glad he did! I'm learning so much about different aspects of animal husbandry thanks to KZbin and hopscotching about per other vloggers' recommendations! I'm 69 years old now and have joined the ranks of the old people who shake their heads and cluck about how they wish they still had your energy, though ; ) Enjoy it, man! It is such a treasure and you are applying it so well. I get into arguments with people all the time over which profession is the most essential and I still maintain farming is still number one. All we'd have to do is try to get by without you valiant people in agriculture doing what you do for maybe 6 weeks to feel that truth. I love you all. I hit subscribe right away! I hope you and Aaron tie in a dead heat!

[@billjones393]

I’ve got addicted to the sheep game. Lambing is wonderful and the ewe’s mothering instinct is a miracle. Ther was that 007 loup o’er the fence! Gaun yersel, Cammy.

[@billjones393]

Loving every single lambing video. I wish I was (1) living near ye (2) 50yrs younger and (3) living back in Scotland, I’d be with ye helping/learning.

Those valais cross lambs are something else 😍 I do love how a fresh lamb wiggles its tail so much while going in for some milk from Mama. 💙

[@ggsuter]

Look forward to some great videos. Sent to your channel by the Midwestern Hoof Trimmer!!!!😄

[@wendyrowland7787]

Get a builder’s bendy bucket, prefect to drop a lamb into. I used to put the lamb’s front legs in a loop and pass the string behind the head so that it makes bunny hops like a newborn.

[@neilritchie4035]

Great video Cammy!👍👍👏👏

[@TheSheepGame]

Cheers Neil

[@firstlight7419]

We have Cheviots here in USA. A Collie breeder and trainer in Kentucky has run a flock for 20+ years. My shelties have trained on them. They are great to teach a longer wider out run since flight zone is bigger but they flock well (At least, hers did.) They act very much as yours do.

[@TheSheepGame]

Ah right that's great do they look similar to ours? sounds like they are still just as wild 🤣

[@Techielass]

The wee man picked the right rugby shirt for sure!

[@deedawson6074]

Now that made me laugh out loud super man. Cracking up here in New Zealand. Happy birthday young man. 🎂

[@andyp6913]

Wet adoption we call it now .. trying properly for the first time this year .. we grab lambing singles - shearlings mainly - break the water bag into a bucket, Chuck in a Cade lamb, lamb the single and squeeze the juices over the Cade + give it a proper bath - all out of sight of the ewe - then introduce them both at the same time, the real lamb flopped on top of the Cade .. two weeks in 100% success rate so far - think I’ve done 5 today alone .. we don’t tie the legs as the Cade tends to be quite dazed after the bath and being flopped on .. amazing to be this far into lambing and have no Cade pen + no triples out in the field .. we can’t quite believe it 😀

[@wendyrowland7787]

I used to hobble the pet lamb so that the newborn gets enough colostrum as the introduced lamb may take it all. Otherwise did the same. I had a camera trained on the singles pen to make ir easier to manage the deception.

[@andyp6913]

@@wendyrowland7787 yep .. the Cade taking all the colostrum is the issue .. we watch them quite carefully and haven’t seen this to be the case yet but it’s definitely something we bearing in mind .. we use cades that have been fed and like I said they are quite dazed for a few hours .. fingers crossed the master plan doesn’t come crashing down in a few weeks 😫thanks 👍👍

[@fern1416]

So nice to see that hog and hung lamb from last night doing so well and the twins (sortof) cheviot doing great too. Been thinking about both units all day

[@TheSheepGame]

Amazing how they can come back so strong from a tough lambing or from being so cold.

[@CecilliaDB]

Rubbing juices on a lamb. No Idea why thats so funny. Another great vid.

[@GS-st9ns]

2 videos in a row, I love it You are a superhero sheep farmer

[@alexwholey3391]

Great vlog as always! The vallais blacknose crosses are cute! Did you borrow or do you own a blacknose tup? I'd end up climbing in the pen to cuddle them if I were there. Haha! Glad last night's cliff hangers are better today!

[@loretta-rosenewman7240]

Omgosh ❣️lovin’ the baby black nose mix! Like a stuff toy.

Says a lot about your driving Cammy when James jumps back in after turning the sheep on her back and puts on his seat belt in the field 😁

[@TheSheepGame]

Haha, or we just get tired on the beeping 😂😂

[@Schoonebeekers]

Cammy at full blast 🤣🤣🤣. Thinking about the consequences if things had gone wrong 🤕. Who is the savior then for the distressed lambs 🤔. The gimmer with the giant lamb, beautiful deliverance. Sometimes the mother-lamb bond is gone for a while due to the heavy delivery / stress. For a good assumption, you can put some amniotic fluid in the sheep's mouth, always works. Beautiful lambs, cross Walliser schwarznase / Jacob sheep. How many horns do you think you will get on that 😁. Do not let go of a sheep that has been lying on its back for a while because of the descent of the intestines. Adoption method with the plastic bag 👍. PS. maybe something for you, a camper 🚙 for the lambing time, fully equipped.

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Remco, aye it does sometimes take a little while for the mother to love her lamb if she has had a stressful lambing. Mmmm not sure about the horns yet I imagine they will have something considering both mum and dad do.

[@angus9941]

I have the same headlight. Love it, lots of light and hands free.

[@brikramberg8084]

The black nose Jacob crosses are so precious! Also I think the Jacobs are cool sheep!

[@kristinefrink5726]

Hi Cammy! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL! I've learned so much, thanks to you, and am asking if you might please explain the basic terms you frequently use: such as 'hog", etc. there are more but I won't venture to guess as your strong accent will likely make me misunderstand what you actually said! Thanks so much!

[@serendipityfishing692]

Ah yes adoption, I misread it as abduction 🤣

[@cw4608]

Lambing reminds me of calving on the dairy. I freshened all my cows in the spring and dried them off in the winter. It worked quite well, but managing all those babies at the same time could be hectic.

[@BluegrassHomestead]

Great video, tons of information. I have never seen anyone introduce a lamb that way, messy but it has to work! As for your fence jumping, LOL, no wonder Lizzie is phoning you like HEY, GET OVER HERE! Tell your friend James he looks like a Brandybuck! (LOTR) Excellent work, the video took time and man you showed us how very busy you are and you all are working hard. Beautiful jacob/valais cross, super cool! Oh, we are eating lamb burgers while watching, local farm sells butchered Hampshires. If you ever wanna do a cooking with Lizzie and Cammy episode that would be awesome, teach us some cool lamb recipes. Have a great lambing week!

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks, if done well a wet foster is pretty effective although you will occasionally get the odd ewe that can't be fooled, haha Lizzy does get a little frustrated when she can't do anything for this lambing and I'm not being as quick as she wants 🤣 Lizzy actually quite enjoys cooking, but not so much the camera so will have to work on her for that one.

[@BluegrassHomestead]

@@TheSheepGame I can totally understand her being frustrated but she's got a little lamby of her own so he/she comes first. You'll get it all done, very busy and successful lambing so far. Well done. Yes, get her comfy with cooking on camera, we will need those amazing scottish/english recipes.

[@jcampbell100]

I finally found out how to understand what you are saying, I set my speed to .75 and voila!! You sound a wee bit drunk but I can catch what you are saying. Love your channel and subscribed. Keep up the good work.
