Thanks mate

Very entertaining video . . . these rams should be more thankful . . . getting rid of that blanket in the heat . . . also remembered the neighbour coming to sheer our sheep years ago, and us young ones taking turns turning the crank for the sheerer, an electric or wireless on would have been handy. Turning 40 . . . you got to start going on more hill hikes (😊) cheers.

Happy Birthday Alister. Nice rams. Running south Suffolk for the first time this year - looking forward to see how they go.

[@kiwifarmernz]

Will be very interesting. Let me know what you think.

[@brendont1082]

Hope you had a good 40th Alistair hopefully you got a little rain overnight and get some good rain with the forecast of rain over 4 days at the end of the week to give you a nice little boost of feed 😊

[@kiwifarmernz]

We did have a good party thanks. Got 38ml which should help a lot.

How is new little puppy going

[@kiwifarmernz]

They are doing well growing fast

Happy 40th! Hope the head didn't hurt too much. James' farm was the one you were at a while back when you were down on the beach aye. Hope you guys get some rain tonight and tomorrow.

[@kiwifarmernz]

Yeah sure was. Such a magic spot. Hopefully we get something out of it .

[@markmeredith5521]

Thanks for all the videos over the last year,always entertaining and informative. Looks like it is drying up over there,good to see sunshine tho,we aren’t allowed any in the UK... Surprising really when all they want us to do is put solar panels up everywhere!! Hope you and the fam have a lovely holiday time...See ya next year😊 PS. There’s good money to be made if you just specialise in Ram Shearing...😅

[@kiwifarmernz]

Thanks Mark it is getting really dry but just got 38ml of rain which should help. Have a great Christmas. I couldn't do it as a job.

[@harryparish5960]

Hopefully todays rain should help you out (providing you weren't trying to make any hay).

[@kiwifarmernz]

Na no hay yet. Got 38ml which will help.

[@timmo645]

😀👍

[@GraemeCoulter]

Congrats on the 40 years old (if you make it, don't try to turn up on a motorbike). Georgia's prize giving more important. Live long.

[@aaronteelow3320]

What price did u pay for the south Suffolk ram?

[@kiwifarmernz]

$1000.

[@scottchaffey1514]

Happy 40th birthday to you, hope it’s a good celebration. Did you end up with your first pick at the Ram sale? He does look good though.

[@kiwifarmernz]

Thanks. Na not my first pick but a good Ram all the same.

[@karlmorgan3678]

Shearing looks like hard work at the best of times but doing Rams must absolutely suck 😅

[@kiwifarmernz]

Yeah it does but I find it's a great way to have a good look over the rams .

[@colinwientjens1871]

So do you have to have a bid in on lots by the time the clock stops to be able to keep bidding in the 2 min window or are all lots still open? Happy 40th mate, Iam ignoring mine next year as best as possible 🤣🤣🤣

[@kiwifarmernz]

All of the lots are still open untill the end is called. After 2 min with no bids has passed.

[@rigger314]

With my stuffed back, I dont think I'd ever want to learn to shear.

[@kiwifarmernz]

I don't do it enough to be any good at it.

[@rigger314]

@@kiwifarmernz I've got almost 20 years on you mate and I've have no chance of doing it.
