About this Channel:
This channel chronicles my journey as a sheep farmer from the very beginning. My primary occupation is in business management. In 2020, I discovered the principles of regenerative agriculture and embarked on a journey with the end goal of building a profitable small farm on 23 acres by 2027. Thank you for joining the journey!

Good information

[@johnpattiredoakacresfarm5587]

Good morning, we watch Your KZbin videos on your trip to Australia what type grass mixer did they use in there pastures as we are raising goats and kathian sheep together

[@hombredeacero3131]

I’m amazed at how healthy and well fed they look while on a desert like conditions. They are beautiful animals

[@TheCommonGardenTater1]

Wonderful. Young lady, you are going to be "The Sheep Star"... Watch this space folks!

[@georgeadams1955]

Proudly South African.

[@andrewfreshwater2948]

Its really cool that other people are calling Dorpers the Angus of the sheep breed - its actually a phrase I came up with to describe them in around 2007. Soph does a brilliant job and is a bloody legend of sheep breeding!

[@andrewhensel3894]

This is a great film! I'm about 50km from Millmerran and we've had over 5" of rain for the last few weeks. So this place would be looking a million bucks right now.

[@HadasahB]

Okay now, THAT was superb info - MUCH THANKS!

[@elizebethparker5412]

"Australian relevant " what an important phase!

[@justinestruwelowe]

She's so inspirational and really makes me think that there is value in getting registered v good quality Dorper genetics when you are set up and experienced with sheep management

[@MerryMallett]

Love your work! ❤

[@andyjones6361]

Love the content. I have just a few acres to work with but I’d still love to do it. If I can get a few more acres that are adjoined to mine I want to try a tiny regenerate farming operation. I’m going to hang out here and enjoy your videos. I started awhile back but my work is up and down and we’ve been in the up side. Thank you much for your knowledge Andy

[@theShepherdess]

Thank you for supporting my efforts on the channel!

[@aqibaqibaqibaqib9079]

Hi 🎉 I'm bangladesh 🇧🇩thanks 💚

[@davidbenjudah-ch5rr]

This gives me hope as I’m researching for a sheep that can stand these exact conditions in Northern California

[@tannerfarmstead]

I always enjoy learning from your content. A sheep enterprise is something we are looking to add to our farm in the future. Thanks for all the great information and content.

[@theShepherdess]

Thank you so much!

[@mehmetkadoglu9077]

Can you make a video comparing all the features of Dorper and avustralian White breed sheep in Australia?

[@haydennorthcott3277]

Great to hear Pat Coleby mentioned. Recently started reading one of her books.

[@everettarthur6525]

I wouldn't say the sheep are not fed grain, They are just not from a bucket.. Instead they plant the grain on the pasture LOL

[@AustralianHomestead5000]

It's the definition of pasture that's key there

[@Gibaskesemarfarm]

Well done. You're just amazing

[@beardedrancher]

Howdy! I'm a 4th generation rancher from Texas. Our ranch turns 100 this year. We run dorper and merino. Althought the american wool lndustry is a lost cause so well likely only run dorper soon. I enjoy the videos. Its good to bring attention to the lifestyle.

[@sunsetstella8917]

Full interview was excellent . Thank you

[@_FNQ]

Great episode👍

[@anthonyburke5656]

Did anyone explain to you the importance of the Black Headed Dorper strain?

[@inthekitchen8842]

Great vids!

[@thomasdooley5904]

Well done. You are getting good at this KZbin thing. Great video

[@zaneofodin9300]

25 inch annual rainfall is pretty high for most of Australia 😂😂 you could raise any animal on that sort of rain 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@thangd7124]

Learning so much. Thanks! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️💕

[@Bennie32831]

Have you been to WA to see ian and di haggaty they farm 60000acers regenerate agriculture Worth a look 👏✌️👍

[@Lysander_Spooner]

Where in WA?

[@movinon1242]

Bennie means Western Australia, not Washington state, USA.

[@movinon1242]

And their original ranch was at Wyalkatchem, near Wallambin Salt Lake. Now they have loads of properties all around Dowerin, Cunderdin and Meckering.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

Very good documentary. Sometimes the accent was a little difficult, but overall a good starting point. It is very flat in that part of Australia.

[@anthonyburke5656]

Did anyone tell you about “Australian Square” sheep?

[@mehmetkadoglu9077]

Thanks for your beautiful videos. How many babies are produced per 100 births in Dorper and Australian White breed sheep in Australia?

[@CritterUprising]

Your flock of sheep is amazing, how much does each sheep cost?

[@heltonrural9001]

Sou muito admirador da raça dorper, ainda pretendo ter essa raça quando tiver recursos

[@philipmcmanigal4896]

Hi Shepherdess, I was wonder if you know of or have a list of companies that produce non-blended, natural fiber clothing. Hoping, hoping, hoping. keep up the good work. Phil

[@sadow51]

What would be a good meat sheep bead for Oklahoma? On pasture

[@babupasha3491]

That's my future in life stocks

[@FulbrightFarmstead]

She said 24-25 inches per year? We only get 15 inches per year here in Montana!

[@breesechick]

❤❤❤

[@jounissbadri5721]

There is a shortage of sheep in Morocco

[@Z8Q8]

But Goats are better suited to desert regions than sheep. Sheep do great here in cold & wet climates.

[@jamalduweik6465]

Does she harvest and collect the peas, or she leave the herd to graze them?

[@theShepherdess]

They are grazed!

[@CowleyHillFarm]

Great video! How well do you think the Dorper would adapt to the British climate with higher rainfall and cooler winters.

[@zacapps5029]

Most likely not as good as British breeds. Dorper don't fair as well in temperate areas.

[@supraptosuprapto8028]

Can you give me dorper for to breed in Indonesia please.

[@imranmunir2208]

Can i work ur farm

[@bradjenkins932]

Check your local area and market first.. No one in my area want's sheep.
