With a cold spring we had some extra time to sheer the sheep but now we have to tackle it and get it done.
Make sure you subscribe to follow our daily lives in this farm!
Hey to everyone!!
We are two young adults, Despina 22 and Deivids 23 renovating an old farm house from 1817 in Latvia.
Everything in and out of our house has been done by ourselves with no hired help.
DIY is going to apply to nearly everything in our house. Our budget is tight and that has made us appreciate every “ugly” part of this house and turn it into something new and beautiful.
We give new life to things that others would throw away!
In this journey we are not alone! We are starting up our little Farmily:
5 Goats & 6 Goat Babies
3 Sheep & 3 Sheep Babies
4 chickens
1 Rooster
and 3 Geese
Oh yeah and our cat Ivi
Despite our daily problems we are two young people full of joy and happiness, ready to start a new crazy chapter in our life. It wouldn’t be fair to keep this fun just for us!
That’s why we want YOU to also be part of our Farmily!!
We love our very supportive community!!
Thank you so much for the support you are giving us. Every view, like, share, subscribe and financial support means a lot to us. Any support is extremely appreciated!

You had a mini rodeo with the ram. I remember last year you two shaving Barbara. She wasn't happy. I do have a question. What do you do with the wool? Oh, I got a tickle seeing the boy goats trying to walk through their new field. If it wasn't for their horns it would have been hard to find them. 🐐

Get some cotton rope. Once you have them on the ground, tie their legs together front to back. Cotton rope will not abrade their skin. With their legs tied, you can more easily flip them over to the side you need to shave. Sheep are easily subdued when they see they can't get up and try to run. Once they relax, you can take your time with a proper set of shears. You're doing great!

Please if you can some how get the good razor ASAP and finish shaving him. He's not feel good with all the half shaved wool on him. Most of all everyone is going tease him because he looks funny. It may ruin his self-esteem from being picked on from the others because of the way he looks... If I had the money I'd buy y'all a shaver just so he don't have to look like that until the rest of his wool grows out come fall...But I'm old and on a fixed income and I ain't got the extra cash. I'm sad to say... I love you kids and I do understand y'all are doing your best... Be blessed in Jesus name... BBE..

Hi David and Dessy. Sheep are not the easiest to shear, David is right, new shaver for next year. The fleeces look amazing, it will make nice wool when spun, or nice felt, wool rug or stuffing for a winter jacket. Endless possibilities. You work so well together, next year hobble the rams legs,he will go down faster. Have a good weekend, stay safe.

That was no surprise, the goats rapidly went to work on the food. You have great mixed material for them to eat, and plenty for them to pick. Your sheep showed that they are not all the same, they have different feelings and likes. Sheep are also surprisingly strong, they surprised me anyway. I suspect that having all-leg-drive, is a great help. Getting rid of their winter covering and being tidied up should be a comfort to the sheep.

Hello! I think you should hire a sheerer to come out to finish sheering the sheep becuz it'll be twice as bad if you wait till next year. A good idea would be to watch people that sheer for a living and can teach you how to do this job easier. Anyway, good job trying to do this yourself!!!
@chloesmom412
@chloesmom412 2 года назад
They said they watched people on YT and learned how to do it. 1 problem is they don't have the proper shears. Like you said they need to bring someone out to finish all shearing so they look nicer. But then again they don't really care about the sheep like they do the goats. I am close to unsubcribing.
@tamistone7344
@tamistone7344 2 года назад
@@chloesmom412 when I said they need to watch how people that sheer, I was referring to how they can get a sheep on their rear-end. This causes the sheep to relax and you can sheer them easier. Also there are pressure points a sheerer uses to keep them from moving around so you don't nick them with the sheers. I understand how you feel, becuz I'm kinda with you about leaving too. I don't believe in inbreeding. It used to be fun watching them redo the house and they don't do much of that kind of thing anymore. It's becoming silly.

Yup, sheep wrangling is sort of an art form. Big Boy almost took down Despina rather than the other way around. She isn't afraid of anything---well, maybe mosquitoes. Deivids has the patience of Job what with putting up with sheep peeing on him to having the shaver quit right in the middle of the last shave. Frustrations; you have them yet you keep on and just look at what you have accomplished since you moved in, eh? Great job, you two!

Also found it interesting that you only shave them once a year, sheep are sheared at least twice a year here but alot of our sheep are bred for selling the wool & getting lambs for meat. It might grow quicker on them or maybe it’s because of the climate. No snow below the tallest mountains and much hotter summers here. I’m from a country town in Victoria, Australia. 🇦🇺 I’d love to visit you both and meet for coffee one day. We are the same age and share so much in common. Very similar interests and same values I believe. I just recently brought a house for the first time, I’m tempted to create my own RU-vid playlist of videos of renovations to make it nicer and modernised. I’m not sure I have the confidence though to show that much of myself online
