    That little Foxy dog seems to think he’s a working dog! He makes me laugh despite him being so small compared to the size of the sheep! He’s a game little bugger!

    The hut thing is a good idea for people who are keen on the outdoors you could do hunting adventures as a hunting guide. A cabin is ideal too.

    I don’t breed replacement ewes but do breed my own rams . They get very minimal drenches as lambs/hoggets and I cull heavily on the subsequent performance. Ill thrift , sore feet or lose of body condition are basically my main culling principles although I really should get into eye muscle scanning

    Resilience and resistance to worms are two very different things. But they interconnected, you really need a balance of both. We have been breeding our own rams for probably 25 plus years, been SIL recorded for probably 15 plus years, now with our stud ewes DNAed. We aim to breed a fertile, clean belly and breach ewe, is FE tolerant, that doesn’t need drenching as adult/ and needs minimal fly prevention and don’t require docking. These stud ewes are run along side our commercial flock, on hard class 6/7 hill country in northern hawkes bay. This year we will be very close to 160% ewe to the ram to sale. We also breed our own bulls, from a DNAed stud herd, and have EBVs done on them.
    Both stud ram lambs and bulls undergo stress testing, we we stretch out there drenching intervals and monitor weight gains.
    Its an interesting process, at the end of the day if we can produce the product at a lower cost, we make more $. In these times operations with high cost structures are really feeling the effects of low product pricing.

      Thanks for the info. That is an interesting process. What is the name of your stud?

    • @lukeread6208
      @lukeread6208 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      We dont have a name. Only sell a few rams by word of mouth. Our intention has never been to sell large numbers of rams. We really only started because we were so disappointed with purchased stud stock Although with poor wool prices and more drench resistant, we are finding slightly more interest in what we’re doing.

  • @PaulEglinton
    @PaulEglinton 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Good thinking Gemma.
    We havnt drenched for 10÷ years.
    Source Rams from an organic system with similar climate. Ideally next door.
    Bums are always clean now.
    Why stop there.
    Shedding breeders are turning there attention to creating a sheep that has a clear belly and bum.
    Or go full shedder and reduce the work load
    See youtube channel , based in nz, on shedding sheep to see what' breeders are doing.

    We are continuing with mating hoggets. With worm resistance in mind bought from the Meadowslea Autumn Ram Sale one of the Kikitangeo worm-restistant rams to run with them.
    We selected our replacement ewe lambs long before they got their one and only drench so hopefully we will be going in the right direction.
    Great content as always

    Exciting times with the new diversification projects. I’m sure you will do well.
    Sorry the sheep job is tough.Even though prices are high for us in UK there are still massive issues.
    Schmellingberg disease caused a lot of early losses and six months of unprecedented rain is causing havoc with April lambing.
    Single lambs are way too big after wet/warm winter and they are having terrible trouble with keeping triples alive(putting on lamb macs as soon as they are born). 4%drop in flock numbers,loads of dog and predator attacks all leading to reduced numbers.
    I don’t think it’s easy for anyone. Have a good week 🙂

    regarding parasites, it is said that if you rotationally graze them so they dont go back onto the same pasture after 5 days, they should avoid picking upparasites. Im no expert though it is common practice on smaller operations

    I was talking to Massey University the other week about getting a DNA test my dog (house dog) - did you know they are just about to start DNA testing on sheep dogs? Heading and Hunteraway - they are trying to work out any genetic links to known genetic conditions - it is FREE to do they just want a saliva sample from each dog - they are trying to help breed out known conditons and want farmer to get involved
