ABOUT ME
I’m 32 years old and I’m a sheep farmer from Ayrshire in South West Scotland, which is why I have such a strong accent! I was born and raised on a sheep farm watching my dad who was the shepherd.
At 18 I went away from farming to work in the city (something I still do) and at 23 (2013) I decided I wanted to do something for some extra money so I went on a sheep shearing course. The hardest thing I’ll ever do was learning to shear sheep. [shudders thinking about it]
I shore whilst on my holidays from work for 2 years and then in 2015 my dad died so I decided to get my own sheep so I could continue working with sheep as it was something I loved doing. From there it escalated quickly from my first 4 sheep in my mum’s garden to now running around 850 breeding ewes.
I shore over 19,000 sheep this season in the UK and have my own shearing run which lets you see many different farms in the summer months.
A few years ago I bought myself a sheep pregnancy scanner and have been building up my run since then.
I watched a few farm vlogs on TH-cam and decided I could have a go and now here we are!
Thanks for watching my videos and please subscribe if you want to see more in future.

With the way you are growing your business you are quickly going to be joining the deep pocket crew. Live to watch you with the kids. Hello to Lizzy and Jock.
Haha can't wait for that Lesa
Can't wait for lambing season.
The deep pocket crew, lolz!
Extremely interesting to see how sheep are sold there in Scotland! I loved every bit of it. In Canada we don't have sales like that for breeding stock of various ages. Love the kids and the wonderful accents too🙂😉😆
Thanks and well done on 10k subs!! =D
@@TheSheepGame thanks for mentioning it on your posts!❤
Hi Cammie. You can tell you're a lovely person, Because everyone you interacted with had a big smile on there faces and was ready to have a chat and a laugh. Give Lizzie and Jock a hug from me. You really have a smashing lassie and son there 👍👍🐑🐑🐑👍👍
Thanks so much Teresa. I'm a very lucky boy!
I'm always impressed by the sale barns you go to. They're clean, bright, organized, equipment is kept up, people are friendly, the animals are clean, and it's pretty quiet for all that's going on. The ones I've been to here are always dark, dirty/muddy, the pens are practically falling apart, nothing is organized, the animals always look terrible, the people are rude, just such an awful atmosphere. I wish they were all like the ones you show.
A fun video Cammy, enjoyed the kids being interviewed, very cute.
I can confirm that the patreon videos are great! If supporting in that way is within your means, I recommend them!
It's on my bucket list to own some wool/roving/yarn from Cammy and fammy. For this reason, I fully support him owning all the sheep (and maybe alpaca).
haha thanks!
That pen looked like Romney cross Possibly. Lots of those here down south!
Yeah i think that's more like it
I just love the accents! Also the interviews with the children are always so cute!
Really cool to see the full vlog after seeing the shorter Patreon video. Loving all of the content Cammy.
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks for another great video. Interviewing the kids- precious.
Nice Video Cam, love the market stuff, great looking ewes, they will do well. Hope Lizzie and Jock are well....
Thanks Howard. All well here. 😁
Another great video at the market, lovely to see the kids involved.
Nice one Cammy. Bummer about the spent fuel, but great video. I really enjoyed your banter with all the farmers, old and young, but the young ones are definitely cuter.
Awesome video! Enjoyed the sale. Thanks for going even though you didn’t buy!
Great video Cammy very nice mules your a natural at interviewing the kids first class 👍
Hi Cammy, nice looking sheep. Thanks for showing us all of this. Take care and stay safe till next time. ❤️ ❤
I can vouch that the patreon videos are great fun and great value for your money.
Hi Cammy! I'm visiting Dagestan this week and seeing lots of sheep here (everywhere), so fun to see how different they can be, with long fatty tails and fluffy heads, those are types I was used to before watching your channel, now I see Scottish sheep as a standart.)
Thanks! I’d love to go there!
Mary here Florida US Received my crew shirt Yesterday wow great Quality.
Brilliant thanks for buying one Mary!
So good with the kids... Just remember how much they look up to you it's a tough place to be buddy!
Cheers Matt. Always try and make time for them as I know it's such a big deal to them especially getting on the vlog!
I'm just an Assistant Beaver Scout Leader but it's crazy that they remember you. I live by a Junior and two Senior Schools and I get kids shouting my name across the road when they see me. Just a few moments for you is a lifetime memory for them ☺
Cammy for the win. I appreciate you! I also rejoined your Patreon!!!! ♥️
What cute kids! And smart, too! Great job, Cammy!
Found you through Sandy in Canada and love every video 💙
Thanks Fiona!
Your so good with the kids ,seeing the cows at the end I thought you were going to buy some
Not till i get my own farm Sara =D
Greetings from Northern California!!
You are always a pleasure to see. Never dull, always informative and entertaining.
Just curious, how many sheep are you running now? How many did you start with and how long ago? If these questions are too personal I will understand.
Stay well!!

Can’t stop watching your videos! Love em!
Great video Cammy and great sheep on show at the market 👌
Love watching you with the kiddos.❤❤Jock & baby on the way are lucky 🍀 to have such a great parents! The sheep are so beautiful! Love the way they jump over nothing. 😂 Maybe you have said this before, but what breed is your favorite to own? Thank you for another great video!
The Scotch Mule for me 😄. And thanks!
OMG I thought he had a ferret poking out his hoodie 🤣 that aside what a lovely bunch of sheepies in this auction. Also much more relaxed and less stressed that sheepies in the other auctions.
Good luck 👍🤗
Brilliant video 👍
Love listening to your banter! Don’t understand but love it all the same.
The banter is the best part! 🤭
A boy Cammy another good video 👍🏻.
You have great ewe lambs you should definitely consider breeding them or selling as breeders. You could buy a new tup especially for covering the ewe lambs.
Tex x mule with a texel x beltex tup is a brilliant cross, the lmbs are the bomb.
Thanks, Cammy!
The kids you talk to are sooooo cute.
Great video
Great video Cammy,- and you are right, you have to be in it to win it. 👍🏻❤🐑
Thanks Tracey!
They are all so pretty ❤
great video
Great video as always Cammie
the pop-up (jack-in-the-box) sheep is hilarious. effective.
Oh well! you canny win them all Cammy, but maybe it gave you some thoughts on what you might do at this time next year.
Great insight at what happens at the market at this time of year. 👍
For the non Scots: Blether means having a talk or chat with someone.
Just in case you weren't 100% sure: Faither means Father. 😀
Perfect scots translation 😁
So many people think that ewes are done lambing at four years but I had our matriarch of the herd have triplets in her 9th year! She should go another two lambing’s before we pasture her.
We'll "bleat" that out, lol!
You should set up a discord page for the sheep game, where everyone constantly shares the prices of all the different sheep at the different mart’s so your all over the buying and selling game cammy! Love the mart videos mate 🤘
Thanks Colin. Most marts post their prices each day so we can follow the trade. Problem is it can change drastically each day.
@@TheSheepGame I figured you could get some insider trading happening 🤪 I love it how you post the prices and your average 👏👏
Please continue to post on TH-cam, I don’t do Patreon. I enjoy your videos and want to continue watching them Cammy!!!!! Please
Don’t worry we’ll still have 2-3 per week on TH-cam. It’s just wee extras on Patreon.
You had me at "miserable day" but we didn't get to see you working in it :(
Yo yo yo! Hows it goin? gonna get watching
good man!
The texel cross dorsets look like highlander sheep
Naw those store Cattle ❤
110 ,those texels would be perfect.
Those ewes looked like Galway sheep, breed native to galway in Ireland
I think those ones you said were texel cross dorsets were romneys
I think ur right!
Sorry you didn't get any ewes this time Cammie, but it was delightful seeing the sale! A really great distraction from election madness.
Last year I would've known a good sheep from a hole in the ground. Now I see what you mean about those absolute belters!
🤣 a great phrase thanks
@@TheSheepGame I live in California. I think I'm going to start a sheep ranch. A small one for retirement income. Come and help me start one!
I wonder if you can help me. My husband and I currently live in the US and we have a small flock of katahdin/dorper sheep. We are wanting to move to Ireland or Scotland and I want to start up a new flock. Our sheep are pretty docile and will follow me around the pasture like pets. I don't know a lot about sheep in the UK so I was wondering if you would know of a sheep breed that would suite my needs. I love my connection with my sheep so something docile and friendly would be a top priority. Hair sheep would be preferred but not a deal breaker. Hopefully you can help me. But if not, thank you either way.
you could have left the bleeps in, I don't think half of TH-cam would have understood it
What price did the 46kg ewe lambs make? great vid as always Cammy.
£110 i believe.
What software are you using to edit your videos Cammy? Just interested in what the pros use on TH-cam.
Looked like Romneys
Yeah I think ur right!
I want this sheeps .
What are the color marking on the sheep's back? Do certain colors mean certain things? Asking from Geneseo Illinois USA
That wasn’t £170 for Scottish mules was it 😳 good money
Who left the Irn Bru tin on the post!!!!😅😅
Have you considered selling bred ewe lambs, or is that something done in your neck of the woods. I sold my ewe lambs bred and always got a premium, but sold right on the farm, so no auction fees, either and less stressful for the sheep.
I keep all my own mules out my hill sheep so only sell prime lambs. 😁
👍👍😁
Hey Cammie, I was looking for a way to donate to your cause, but all I saw was patreon. Do you have a pay pal site to make a direct payment to you? Let me know. Thanks
Hi Pete, You are very generous but even buying some merch from the website is a big help to us and it means we can give you something back in return. Really appreciate the offer.
Question when you say the sheep were "correct" and "stuffy" what did you mean? I can guess, but I'm uncertain as someone who doesn't deal with sheep.
Correct means her udder and teeth are all good. Stuffy just means solid and healthy looking.
@@TheSheepGame I'm glad I asked because I definitely thought that stuffy meant fleshy or chubby. 😄
Interesting how they only keep £190 ewes for one crop. I would have thought better to get at least two seasons if bought to improve a herd before passing them along in sale. Is that normal?
No, the farmer was selling off his sheep flock so not a normal thing to do.
@@TheSheepGame Thanks for the response Cammy. Have an awesome day.
A bit of an ignorant question, what is the difference in the sheep you sold last video and the ones you may have bought in this one? You mention it but I don't quite understand.
Edit: I watched again. Are the ewes full instead of crosses?
The ones i sold in last video were lambs bred for their meat. These are adult ewes and ideal for breeding. No ignorant questions here 😁 ask away 👍
You bought those Cheviots for crazy money last year and wouldn’t go to €168 for those beauties 😱
Yeah but that was silly like u said and there was only 12 of them😅.
How ewe doing
Feeling a bit sheepish 😄
Is there a pink womans size 22 or 24 jumper available please x
If you drop a wee email to thesheepgame@outlook.com then Lizzy would sort you out. 😁
You have a frighten look on your face !!
Can you buy them yes
What do you mean by "stuffy looking sheep"? Or am I mishearing you. 🤣
Solid, healthy looking 🤣
@@TheSheepGame Ah! That makes sense!
So one crop means these ewes have already proven fertility?
yeah 😁
@@TheSheepGame txs
Can eye ask what a TUPP IS?...
A ram 😁
Cammie, do people dump bad ewes at these sales? It seems it would be a danger if you’re buying 3 year olds.
Not often but yes some people might.
I wish I could afford a patreon subscription.
Hate they pens they are very tight the sheep can't even move 💚iam a sheep lover and I hate everyone that eats lamb or mutten 💚love your vlogs cammy hope lizzy is well too x
No such thing as a “traditional” Scotch Mule! They are all Scotch Mules!!
aaaah I knew it would upset some folks 😁
@@TheSheepGame That’s a discussion we need f2f sometime 😊👍🏻
Hey, you miss 100% of the deals you aren't ringside for
That famous Michael Jordan quote 😁
They lambs texalxromney
Aye that will be more like it Bob
