Amazing tree Orla.

[@ritahawkins2336]

As agricultural lime is typically a light color, often appearing white or very light gray; a dark color could indicate a different material like compost, manure, or even a type of soil with high organic matter content.

[@paddy294]

Always enjoyable. You definitely had your weetabix handling those rams

[@sheepschool365]

Fact 😀

[@curragh2840]

Come on now David, Noah would make a much better job of mixing that raddle powder than you, stand back and give him a chance 😊

[@oppamaclare]

Lime raises the PH, not the other way around.

[@phil6465]

Agree

[@sheepschool365]

Thank you 👌

100%, it's not hard to lose an hour or 2 🤣

[@frankcaton2629]

Hi David just wondering why you use riddle powder instead of a harness.

[@sheepschool365]

Think it goes back to when rams were running with 90+ ewes. Always found the harness chaffed them a bit. Also when the fences were not great losing/breaking the raddle crayons was a problem when the rams were moving through hedges..

[@TifJones-p8s]

rams with sore feet can have a temperature - that slows down the sperm (so the fertility of the ram reduces). David just throw some grass seed over those bare dirt now so once spring comes it should get up and grow - it will be lambing time so not on the priority list once that starts

[@patmcgowan442]

If the feet is hot no lamb

[@TifJones-p8s]

@@patmcgowan442 infected - infection caused a temperature.and that lowers a sperm count - same in cattle etc

[@pamelaclayton7535]

Why did you let the thin sheep out as well as the ones that have sore feet? Are you not going to treat them?

[@sheepschool365]

We were really tight for time so let all out to try & get all the rams re-raddled. Ran them back into the shed later that day & treated both of them 👌

[@AidanBreen-j5o]

Be Jesus you’re not going to get away with the lime mix up anyway David.

[@sheepschool365]

Everyday's a school day 😀

[@patmcgowan442]

[@paulaltena]

Your pH was to low and lime makes it higher, sorry but you told it the other way.

[@sheepschool365]

Thank you. Everyday's a school day 😀

[@SeanieD1968]

Would a ram lamb not be good enough for rubbing ?

[@patmcgowan442]

👍

[@ruthbentley7560]

Ok school days I hope you learned not to put lime and equipment in that boggy part of the field!

[@jeremiahkearney5191]

Morning David, heavy D Sparks makes it look easier than it is, he has lots of experience and perhaps editing. 😂😂

[@sheepschool365]

Definitely knows how to make it look easy & entertaining 😄

The secret to having a good dog is to leave the training to professionals and then get time with said pro trainer and the dog you buy from him/her, to tune up your own ability to work the dog; before you bring it home. The time wasted training a dog, when you don't have the knowledge base, is better spent paying for a good dog that has been selected as a puppy for it's outstanding ability by a true dogman/woman and then properly trained. Trying to train your own dog, is frustrating for you and the dog. It was instantly apparent in the commands you gave, then let the dog ignore a command and then verbally reward her when she ignored said command, you're just confusing for the dog....you can see she has no idea what you actually want from her. Yes a trained dog costs more, but it is instantly effective, if you are guiding it correctly and spares a dog the frustration/negativity of poor training. Lovely Christmas tree, I can see why Orla puts it up early, so you can enjoy it longer.

[@sheepschool365]

I think by that logic none of us would learn anything. My thinking is even the pro dog trainers had to learn and I wouldn't be a sheep farmer and I believe the learning is all the fun!

[@patmcgowan442]

The man + Dog have to training at one time to have ( A Good DOG😊🐕 time well sent ) Said man call pat😄🤣😊👌
