Big Ram-Fat Tail-Long Locks-Chill Shear

This guy is a Karakul sheep. They grow hair type locks over dense wool and store massive amounts of fat in their tails. These sheep are derived from the deserts of Central Asia and can be powerhouses under all that fiber. At the start, his feet brace
perfectly against my maneuver. His neck is strong and designed to withstand force from a full sprint head on collision from a dude just his size. He’s stubborn, but certainly not hurt. You can see him use that strong neck on the last side as I fight him to make him more comfortable. Thankfully, this guy didn’t mind a fresh cut or he’d have launched me across the pasture and taken off with what fleece he wanted left on 🤘🏻

[@shauntaewhittington4103]

No gym workouts needed for you. You showed him who was in charge, in a gentle, but firm way. I can only imagine the way he could have behaved if you hadn’t. It’s amazing and so are you!

[@lanellehatcher561]

You can just imagine how wonderful they must feel when they are finally able to feel fresh air on their skin! Great job!

[@mc-bw7bn]

Right all the fleas and bugs jeez I gotta short hair dog he itches and scratches constantly

[@zedwolf1589]

You are a bad ass, I don't understand how you can do so much at the same time all by yourself. I can hardly cut my 6 year old grandsons hair but he does have the same energy level as a tropical storm. Mad respect for what you do.

[@exdus235]

👍👍👍

[@torrisimoneaux872]

I admire you so much. Sheering is not an easy job but you have such talent that it looks easy. You handle each of these BIG BOYS AND GIRLS with expertise and compassion. I love how you can remove the stress for the animal and do an amazing job.❤️❤️❤️

[@mc-bw7bn]

Right gottem in the headlock between his knees but at that point it seemed like the animal just gave in and was just like okay please do whatever you want

[@MelisJoy]

​​@@mc-bw7bn it's a *her actually..but yes I agree

[@Bones-and-Coal]

That was really interesting! Normally the sheep look like they're cozy sacks of potatoes being flipped about, but this dude definitely showed that it's your skillful handling that gives that impression - not necessarily the beasts themselves. That boyo was definitely making you work for it, but man did he look great afterwards!

[@Bluewaterpinessantarosabeach]

Oh yes! That is one strong and determined Ram. Great shear and strength . Thank you for shearing this boy for us all! Gorgeous!

Y’all are amazing! This big boy gave you the best compliment when you can physically see the moment when he knew he could trust you and let you position him in whatever position you needed to keep bother of you safe! I hope this makes sense! Lol! 💕

[@cathy_p637]

I could see how tough it was for you to maneuver him but I could also see how cautious you were to never hurt him. Glad it worked out so well.

[@HanaTheRussell]

yeah dude. it's wild how they're a little uncomfortable at first but as soon as katie has them on their bums, they're fine all of a sudden. reminds me of how my dog hates putting her harness on. but as soon as we are outside she forgets all about it and she's fine.

I’m addicted to your videos…it’s fascinating. My sister has a tiny farm with 2 sheep. She uses their wool for knitting. I have a lovely scarfs he made me. I am fascinated by how relaxed your clients are.. a real compliment to your skills.

[@bettyg100]

This is my Karakul ram, Rojo. Katy and Darian have been shearing for me for a few years now. Rojo missed the fall shearing that's why he's so shaggy :-) Karakuls are one of the most ancient breed of sheep, and as you can see a fat tail sheep (tails are never docked) Not sure if it will let me share or not, but this is Katy shearing Rojo's son, Monk. Monk is a monster ram, and drop dead gorgeous. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6XKhn2uj5mphsk

[@lijohnyoutube101]

That animal is beautiful! Thanks for sharing the breed name :)

[@the.apocaloptimist]

Yes thankyou for the information, I think he's absolutely gawjus!! Like a walking super luxe flokati! : D I like that he's a really old breed too

[@tashimoto]

Oh wow! He's gorgeous ❤

[@susangrande8142]

Thanks for allowing the video of his shearing here on the Web! 🙏 He’s a fine specimen, and it’s great to see a Karakul here! They are probably the breed of sheep that St. Paul used to make tents. Yes, St. Paul was a tent maker; that was his profession. 👍 The Old Testament Israelites’ tents were probably made of Karakul wool, too.

[@viking-maid]

I would love to have some of his fleece for processing. I think it would make a fantastic woven rug!

[@KBFibers]

Love watching you work. This is a handsome boy.

[@cazee100]

What an absolute gentleman he was. Love watching how you care about the animal and treat them with respect. 10/10 ma’am, great job.

[@faithfulgrl]

You are a Joy to watch you do so much for the animals you (de-fleece?) shave. Just like this big guy, they start to feel their "weight loss" & they become calm. At least I think it does. 🐏 Thank you!

[@flamingomtn]

You needed that last two inches of arm length there at the end. WOW! That was quite a shearing. Great job!

I think the vibrating, sound, feel of the clippers must be soothing.

[@rhondaclark4173]

He didn't know what you were doing at first, but he gave a cute little smile once he started to get some air on his skin. About halfway through, there was a sensible spot, but both of you got through. Well done!

[@emma1montoya]

He sure looks so relax after his hair cut. Thanks for video's sure relaxes me too lol 😊

[@Dianelee999]

Manhandle is just not the right term for a couple of reasons… she just made a maneuver he couldn’t refuse. 😉

[@NanaVicki1]

I love sheep almost as much as watching you! One of mine weighed 450 lbs the other 425. They were so big, my vet use to come get them in his horse trailer to take them out to do this. Only one place to do it, and when they arrived I had to pay extra. Long time ago, good memories

[@lorrainekleingunther5632]

You are amazing! The way you get in there and get going is the best I've seen! Such a professional and oh so fast! You also have a wonderful way of explaining the whole procedure and about the quality of the sheep's wool - other detail as well. Like hoofs, what lies under the wool on the skin and more! So interesting! Congratulations to you and your wife. Excellent teamwork! Thank you!

You have a gentle, no nonsense quietness about you that the animals must sense.

[@94agoodyear]

I was thinking you must really work out a lot to be in such incredible shape to be able to wrangle such a massive animal. Then I thought you probably get more of a workout from shearing than hitting the gym and lifting weights!

[@cymtastique]

The ram has a look on his face like "why are you doing this to me?" Poor guy, it's for your own good!😂

[@masondixon2675]

That big boy calmed right down once you showed him who was boss. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@cynthiafortnerphd4281]

You make a great point in your writing about this ram that he is a fierce warrior who can headbutt another creature into eternity...or at least out of his current chosen space. This realization really puts a lot into perspective about all you do, while spotlighting the strength and know-how you must demonstrate--to us on this side of the camera but most importantly to the animal being sheered. Sheep-Whisperer! Indeed! We see it, totally!

[@rightchoiceshearing]

Thank you so much. 🤘🏻💕

Gorgeous Ram. Even with the pixelization from my crappy service making the video blurry.
