[@RedBelleRidge]

Thank you Jason, Lorraine & Penelope for giving our lambs the most amazing home! I know they will flourish at your beautiful farm!

[@jbrodowsky9402]

You will love having sheep. They are the most under rated farm animal. They eat everything, even poison ivy and all that tall grass will be gone in a little bit. Great for cleaning out area's you physically don't want to, cleaning out garden after it is done and cutting the grass and they taste amazing. Congratulations.

[@droptozro]

My sheep are picky eating what they want down to the ground and leaving other grasses up to seed lol

[@AfterTheRains]

Congratulations guys. Sheep come to Sow the Land to mow the land.

[@terelhutto8604]

that pasture sureley looks better now than when you first moved in. 👍👍

[@brokenmeats5928]

I love ALL Sow the Land videos!

[@cindyfinn4845]

Me too

[@Joe-gy4jj]

Me too,Jason is awesome.

[@KatrinaT]

Sow the Land and Hollar Homestead... I watch every single video, no matter what they are about. Two wonderful families and a it's a privilege that they share their journeys with us.

[@anjaschubert4086]

Ich auch. Jason und seine Familie geht so respektvoll mit den Tieren um! Da gibt es andere Homestader, mit sehr großer Reichweite, die machen das überhaupt nicht. Finde ich ganz fürchterlich. Jason ist sehr empathisch, kümmert sich hervorragend und er überlegt bevor er etwas macht! Ich gucke die Videos sehr, sehr gerne! Lieben Gruß aus Deutschland❤️

[@AZJH8374]

Penelope would never have learned about milking sheep in California! Awesome ❤❤

[@earlenepreher193]

I can see Jason building that milk station 😂😂

[@SandraReinhardt-gj8wv]

They DO eat poison ivy and I absolutely love sheep. You're going to fall in love with this animal. Love to watch your show and see other folks doing the same chores day in and day out as me. Great content!!

[@teriswenson960]

I am glad you have sheep. I have been raising Icelandic sheep since 2011. I love them. They are considered a triple breed raised for meat, milk and fiber. I learned to card and spin their fleece and hand sheared my small flock last year and will again this year. Enjoy them.

[@tireddad6541]

We were intoduced to Mediterranean food and my wife liked the sheep and goat cheeses. Who knew?

[@Tinkergrumpybuns]

Sandi Brock on KZbin a good resource. Sheep farmer in Canada. Congrats!

[@5GreenAcres]

Sandy Brock doesn't have pasture for her sheep. It is like factory farming.

[@kristikey8320]

Congratulations! So now you're a sheep farmer!

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi.... Jason thanks you for showing your video homestead bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋👍👍👍

[@AZJH8374]

Sheep fertilizer is ABSOLUTELY the best for your garden ❤❤❤

[@csprings71]

Sow, roots , more than farmers, best youtube homesteaders

[@catherineahrens6907]

Every time you add to your "mini" farm - I am so excited for you!

[@jillyd2807]

Exciting! 😃 From a new baby at The Hollar Homestead (go have a look everyone) to new sheep at Sow the Land! They’re so lovely 🐑🐑🐑🐑

[@cheryllamb8831]

Jason, I love that you show your vulnerability & awe with the animals. Lorraine is excited to have sweetness in the larger animals instead of fear. Penelope is a great example of how to remain cool 😎

[@oxenrat]

I remember when you got the bacon brothers, I am so proud of how much certainty you all have now, the confidence of daily farming and learning is wonderful to have been part of. Hey there ovine whanau

[@RichLikesRamen]

I swear you are my spirit farmer! Everytime I think of something I want to do, you end up doing it! Honestly it helps me know I am on the right path and I get a firsthand experience to watch the pros and cons of the setup I already wanted to do!

[@linmcdon1662]

Way to go, Lorraine. Show the sheep who is in charge. You are my hero, for the day. You were gentle with them and showed no fear. Loooove watching you guys. Your family is so loving with your animals that you don’t have to wrestle/strong-hold them. Keep up the good work. Much Peace and Many Blessings.

[@kebergify]

Congratulations on the new additions! I enjoyed seeing the sheep milking process...honestly never thought of being able to drink sheep milk. Learn something new all the time watching you all! The bottle fed one is SO FRIENDLY!! I vote keeping that one.

[@shilpihalder2133]

Congratulations on new acquisition

[@amandar7719]

3 months old. Same age as our boring potatoes! What a blessing! Real animals. So exciting.

[@CassieDavis613]

Fine looking sheep.

[@richardsutcliffe]

We are on the same path with the sheep, year 2. Breeding a pair this fall for our first lambs next spring. They are awsome😃👍🐑🐑

[@fairviewhomestead]

Right on y’all! Sheep are my favorite. Great asset to the farm. Ours have kept our freezers full and grass mowed. A little easier to handle than goats. Milking can be a beast but worth it!

[@deniseharris9363]

Hey Sheep! How sweet they are! I love what having your new fence is adding to your farm!!!

[@a.b.2458]

I love the pig drama and I know I will love the sheep drama as well. So happy for you. Your videos are so relaxing.

[@gaylewatkins4685]

Congratulations on getting new animals on the farm. They look very healthy and your fence is perfect. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@lzmash3]

Keep the sheep skins! So warm and cozy!

[@racebanning6390]

Congrats Ya All.... the Champagne of Milk.. Nomnom!!!!🐑🐑🐑🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏God Bless

[@mgtmoffat8411]

Lucky sheep! they have come to a great home. Being practical I know they are headed for freezer camp but that was always their destiny and in the meantime they are well cared for. 💕💕🌻🌻

[@tammysarrazin-ux9tv]

sheepishly me Sandi Brock uses the same milker for her sheep she loves it hugsssss

[@TheMennomilist]

These sheep are so sweet. I never heard of milking sheep. I loved the video. We now have a nearly year old baby and he was baaing with the sheep. He loves them. -JusticePirate

[@carlapierle8623]

What a great addition! They have quite the buffet to eat there thanks to your hard work moving cows and pigs around.

[@nctplarry]

WONDERFUL!! I am so extremely proud FOR your family to have these sheep. Also, I look forward to your videos going forward to notice how much y'all fall head-over-heels in love with these animals. I'm 76 now, but before I was born, my family had sheep and just hearing the stories about "Snowball" and the other sheep down through the years made me wonder why we didn't have sheep during my youth. Well... Instead, we had really top-notch registered Jersey cattle. My dad had been a county agent, but most of my youth, he was the #1 Extension Dairyman for Mississippi, so we got plenty of time with the Jerseys. And, yes, they all had names, so although they always won the blue ribbons and trophies at the fairs, they were gentle, gentle animals on the farm. Many were the times my older brother and I would go to sleep beside the cows and be awakened when they started licking our hair. Ahhh, those were the days. We also raised bulls from time to time, but we always knew how to be on guard, because they could be gentle one moment and like a festering tornado the next. Actually, they were strong enough to kill you. But, none of them ever tried. Yes, I had to hold one off with a pitchfork one time, but that's because I was trying to keep him away from a cow in heat. So, y'all press forward and really enjoy those sheep. Make lots of photos. And, I'll be watch for video cameos when you post future episodes. High fives to all three of you today! ~ Dr. Larry S. Anderson • Tupelo, MS (birthplace of Elvis)

[@sallyburkett-caskinette8723]

Little Red Robin Hood sheep say my what beautiful grass you have!😅

[@mio.giardino]

[@anniefraser2599]

How exciting, Sheep! Yay! So cute too! 🐑🐑🐑🐑😁👏☀️🥰🤗🙏🏻

[@LadysFarm]

❤❤❤ I love sheep

[@ciaobella8963]

Beautiful sheep. Maybe keep the bottle fed one. She can be the welcoming committee for the next round of sheep. Or she might give them a heads up on what lies ahead haha. Congrats on your new animals, Shepherds Jason and Lorraine. 😊

[@jenineclonch6359]

So sweet to see the sheer joy and admiration you have for your new livestock. ❤ 😊 I really love your channel because you are authentic. No fluff. It's so much hard work being stewards of the land, but so rewarding! Keep on doin what you're doin!

[@ladydragon3648]

WOW I never seen Sheep that color before. nice. Good luck with them. I watch Sandi Brock & The Sheep Gamer. they both raise sheep. look them up for a lot of great help on raising them. I love both of them. They can help you with many questions you have about them.

[@jayneward6649]

I am so pleased you got sheep this time, & it's a good idea to get some milking sheep aswell, it's gonna make your life better on your home stead 🐑🐑🐑🐑

[@katt17c]

[@tammysarrazin-ux9tv]

lakeland equipment are a big company and sponsor channels to help get there name out there hugsssss

[@debrezo58]

Congratulations on your new animals! Sheep!!! Maybe you could raise the bottle fed one up to be bred and start your own flock? Not sure if that's what you'd want to do. Just so happy for you to be adding to your farm! 💖

[@sgrvtl7183]

Congratulations on your sheep addition to your farm. 🐑🐑Hope all goes well🐑🐑

[@cstewart911]

They are beautiful animals! Inny, Meeny, Minny, and Moe! I love it!❤

[@davidhebert3029]

Super first hands on! I feel comfortable and confident that I could do this.

[@3boysbees]

We started with two ewes two years ago. Now we have nine and we love em. Processed at home and tastes great. And they're cute.

[@LB-gr7gu]

[@codyleeser392]

Meg's gonna want that wool.

[@LisaGentry-il7gh]

[@helenascott389]

I knew you would eat them!

[@txjellybean3772]

Your wife is adorable. The sheep are precious. I recently had a lamb roast for Passover and it was amazing! I could do sheep easy so this is encouraging.

[@Ashton60578]

Congratulations on getting some sheep.

[@pabapaba6869]

Congrats on your new journey with the sheep. How exciting! As a child, I grew up next to a sheep farm, and their fence ran the length of our yard. Your video took me back there. Thank you.

[@elainehinton2860]

Congrats! We have Katahdins. They eat a lot of poison ivy (browse). They are lucky to land with you all!

[@jenniewolford1631]

oh my Pod Cast is gonna be loaded this week!!! Cant wait! Congrats on your new sheepy livestock :)

[@FarmFreshIB]

Katahdin hair sheep can also be milked. They are easy and very productive sheep for beginners. Since they shed there is no shearing or tail docking. And yes... Sheep LOVE to eat poison ivy!

[@miephoex]

Congratulations on the new additions to the farm. 🎉

[@irmibullinger1421]

Wow, congratulations! Who knew sheep could be so cute! Ibet Lorraine would like that wool.

[@mmurphy2317]

Ya'll are farmin' now!!🐑🐑🐏🐑...and I recognized that ditchin' crew too! Let it rain!!! Then dry out! SOW the Land!!

[@mariesheppard3750]

Just remember sheep flock together, so if one or more get out just make sure they can find there way back to the other, Had 17 one year on my acre, My child was in 4-H with sheep . good they docked there tail keeps them clean lest fly s,

[@shadegarden7375]

Wow, that milking station is awesome!!

[@gypsiegyrl4007]

I love it when you guys get new animals. Congratulations.

[@michelleblandine]

Adorable lambs 🥰🥰🥰

[@robertschroeder1978]

Jason, Lorraine & Penelope, congratulations on the new additions to the Homestead. Thank you all for your videos and content.

[@camicri4263]

So cool, thanks for tagging us along! I never had sheep's milk but I had plenty of cheese and I prefer sheep's cheese! Blessings!

[@pamelam1500]

Congratulations on the new additions!!! 🐑

[@JB-mf1zc]

Now you can build a shed or a tractor for them. God Bless!!!!

[@lararabb8888]

Well you could keep the bottle fed one as a leader for all the sheep to come. Then you would have one to show the others what to do, where to go. 😊

[@codyleeser392]

Keep the friendly guy for a stud

[@birgitelisabeth9661]

I love everything sheep. I can’t wait for more videos of your sheep.

[@higheriam]

Just stand there and stare at em. 😅

[@michelewhite1150]

Another congratulations is in order guys 👍👍

[@Zeke-yv3nw]

Cool to see the new additions.

[@AnlikerAcres1]

They are so sweet! Your farm looks good with sheep on it. 💕

[@judithsmith9319]

Jason and Lorraine, I have that same hand milker. It's for sale. I used it 4 times... nothing wrong with it.

[@SouthernMiss87]

I’m interested! ❤️

[@soswanson9120]

Great addition to the homestead - they will live a wonderful life there on the farm.

[@jeffporterfield4401]

you had a survey up recently asking what animals should be next and i voted sheep, glad to see i had a hunch. they are awesome best of luck with them.

[@patriciaterry5539]

I feel like I’m in class! Awesome!

[@bhavens9149]

Love Sheep! Hope you really enjoy having them.

[@diannaclarke2758]

They're so cute. Sounds like a good animal for you guys for milk and meat.

[@thaliahelene]

Awww, they have a face something like a babydoll sheep but not so extreme. I like them! They milk sheep on the WayOutWest channel, but much bigger ones. Mild mannered compared to goats. Sounds like a good choice for you!

[@justinhutton2578]

Sheep are pretty easy to keep but the most important thing is to keep an eye on their FAMACHA and make sure it doesn't get too low because of a heavy parasite load.

[@cindyfinn4845]

They are so pretty and baby doll sheep are too ,if you sit with them they will calm down...

[@ilovetogarden78]

Congraaaaats on the sheep. Thats my weak sheep impression lol.

[@terelhutto8604]

I love how the sheep just nose-dives right into the clover when you get them out of the truck. "I'm free - Oh! That looks good!" kind of thing. Be Blessed ❤

[@annekendziora9114]

Oh they eat poison ivy! Our sheep really helped us out with that. This is our second year buy meat lambs and we really love it. The meat is amazing. I would love to milk our future flock.

[@cassityart7001]

Greg Judy raises a bred called hair sheep. No steering, no hoof trimming and all grass. I believe he raises them for meat.

[@angelasheppard7197]

Cant wait to watch those sheep grow with you

[@elijahthompson9651]

Potential video idea: The financial side of homesteading, income, etc. how to make a career out of it or what careers work well with homesteading so you can obviously make money will focusing on your homesteading.

[@idahohoosier8989]

Fun times! Blessings, julie

[@rperry1410]

Congratulations on your new addition 😊

[@wadebacca]

Nice, I’ve had dairy sheep for 4 yrs, absolutely awesome, great milk. Way better than goats.

[@margaretbedwell3211]

Your sheep really do look like stuffed animals. Are they as soft as they look? I hope you enjoy them as much as the pigs. Y'all have a Blessed day.

[@Userxyz-z2d]

Lotsa food for them. Awesome!!
