Sheep flock tripled in 14 days! 

I love watching the lambs eat a few bites then call for mom and eat a few more bites. Morning and evening chores are my favorite times of day.

I absolutely love seeing how the dogs & sheeps work together

Thanks for the video! Sheep are so funny. They want their mom’s but they rather eat instead of finding them. I notice on our small flock there is always one of the ewes always watching the lambs. They take turns. I feel if people watch animals on how they want to nurture their babies this world would be so much better off!

They are beautiful! Greg and Jan enjoy your trip. Y'all have a great crew at home to keep the animals moving. 👍

Living on the farm vicariously Thanks!

10:00 Ticks are hosted by small warm blooded mammals, like rabbits and especially rodents. They also act as a reservoir for diseases. Install a Barn Owl nest box. A nesting pair will eat more than 3,000 voles in a season.

Another thing the trampling is doing is building a Humus layer which in Mother Nature's principal means of soil protection. Always good to see your commitment Greg, thank you.

1,000,000% agree on the Parvo shot, it's a must.

My Goodness! So wonderful to see sheep eating a diversity of grasses, forbes and shrubs! Thanks for sharing!

I am using this channel as an example for Dutch farmers so they can see different ways to do things!

Can't wait to see how many sets of triplets you have this year...

So cute!

Love watching them! Nice flock!

I admire your management of the resource in your area. Your perilla mint looks a lot like our mountain mint in eastern Kansas. Thanks for the video!

Safe travels. I hope you enjoy your semi- holiday. It's a beautiful part of the world.

so glad to see your success! Well done!

Love those red and whites. They will sell better than a solid white, too.

Lambs kill me. They make me smile everytime.

That is so really cool! Big congratulations to you you raise healthy happy animals! You are inspiring we have been watching you a few years we just started our own ranch up in the Ozark Mountains!! We have goats and cows just planted Alfalfa and lespedeza!!

Wow. Very impressive. Great job!

If that ram has a similar 'high score' next year, would you consider removing him, to make sure your flock isn't dominated by a smaller set of genes than it could be? i.e. to avoid any potential inbreeding problems in a few generations?

You have had quite the population explosion of lambs and they are big!! The yelling lamb had me laughing. The lambs with color sure are pretty.

Beautiful..... NAMASTE......

Right now my forage is as high and dense as yours and I guess the sheep eat 20 percent and trample 80. They really trample alot.

I wonder how many sheep per acre Greg runs and how long the rest period is of the fields.

Oh my!!! Babies everywhere 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

Greg, do you guys ever have issues with chiggers? If so what do you do to avoid them? The sheep look great by the way.

Have a well earned European working vacation!! We'll look forward to your return.

How did you determine the size of your flock. Land , market or time?..

Thank you for the video.

HELP! i just had one of my momma sheeps through a lamb yesterday morning and my guardian puppy has chewed a hole on the lambs head where the horns would grow??? the dog is still a puppy so i think she was playing BUT in case she wasn't what do i need to do with that dog to keep her from doing that in the future?? and what kind of salve can i use to treat the hole??

HI Greg, My grass got away from me and now my next paddock is around belt high with grass with seedheads on. There is white clover, patches of thistles, Dock, Nettles, Yorkshire fog grass and other grasses I'm still learning, all going to seed. I'm giving my Icelandic sheep a new subdivision of paddock every day or two, but they're leaving a lot of standing grass with seedheads on and around the thistles. Any idea what I should do about the mass of thistles? I've tried tighter pens for flock impact, but no luck yet on the thistles. There is a lot of trampled grass though! If you're passing Chester / Frodsham when you're in the UK, you're more than welcome to pop by for a cuppa!

I noticed a few of the ewes haven't shed yet. Do you have a date in mind where if they haven't shed they're shipped out?

How do you keep the ewes from breeding back after lambing since you don't pull the rams out until July?

Looks like those lambs are eating their way to mom.

at time 6:56 in your video, that spear-shaped leaf is not perilla mint. Perilla leaf is shaped like spearmint or coleus or like the spades in a deck of cards.

One breeding question: with the number of heads you manage,, What is the ratio male-females? And how often do you change the rams?, does it work better to have them all together than separating in smaller flocks? Thanks in advance

When do you lamb?

Terrible news about the thousands of cattle which died in Kansas and Nebraska according to reports it was due to the combination of heat and humidity. According to a Vet this can occur on feedlots where there is no cooling at night and the cattle accumulate heat from one day to the next.

let me tell you a story about parvo. about 9 years ago I bought a puppy from a man selling them out of the back of his truck at the back of the wal mart parking lot. they were a mix of his two pets. the daddy was a registered corgi and the mama was a registered min pin. I took the only one that looked like the mama. the man took my number so he could check up on the puppy. the day after I got her she was sick. she wouldn't eat or drink and she had a fever. I gave her three or four droppers full of colloidal silver throughout the day and just held her on my lap as much as I could. that night before putting her in her kennel for the night, I shoved a capsule of activated charcoal down her throat. the next morning she was bright eyed and bushy tailed. she ate, she drank, she played and was happy. the next day I got a call from the man I got her from. he asked how she was doing. I told her she was fine and that she had been sick the day before and what I did. he told me he brought all three of the other puppies to the vet because they were sick the same day and the vets did everything they could but they all died. isn't that interesting? a highly trained vet couldn't keep them alive but a little nobody like me, who talks with God managed it. I still have my little Miss today. she's never been sick again. she'll be 9 July 1st. you may want to check out the power of colloidal silver as well as activated charcoal. two amazing remedies for all sorts of ailments, both for humans and animals.

Inventory problems!!! High class problems 😍😍Travel safe Master💪💪💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Your coyotes are better "trained" than the ones here. Here, they're not afraid of dogs (or people). They kill several pets a year here in our community.
