Just found your youtube recently, going through the videos and picking up lots of good tips. Saw your comment on having a flashlight and thought I'd share that we have found the headlamp type hands free flashlights are a great way to get that extra light in there without needing extra hands to hold the light!
We actually do use the headlamps! Good call. We would like you to have a small flashlight for checking pupil dilation for differentiating between hypocalcemia and acidosis during late gestation in your sheep and goats. When you get a sick lamb or goat in late pregnancy, you need to check pupillary response to help determine what’s going on. 👍🏻
Thank you for watching and thank you for taking the time to leave a thoughtful comment. It is appreciated.
This was a very helpful video! Thank you so much Tim! We have just begun our Southdown sheep journey and really appreciate you and the education provided! We are fellow Hoosiers! Will be watching all of your videos!
Extremely educational and well presented. I have no comment on the quality of your video...just a personal thought. You are an excellent presenter and teacher....thought...The eyes of a person or animal communicate much more than any words. I would suggest you show your eyes and look into the camera. You have a confident and friendly look about you....just a thought. Great video.
Great points. Thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to leave us a message. We are always looking to improve our videos.
If your showing goats I recommend getting some good conditioner and shampoo some halters and leads a 360 round brush a teslon comb electric clippers and a blow dryer
Great video! Thanks for all the information.
Thank you for the kind words and thank you for watching our videos!
Very informative thank you
Thank you for the kind words and for watching our videos!
I appreciate the video. We just went through our supplies now so we're set for lambing. We start at the end of March. I don't believe calling the vet pays in my context. I love my critters, but individually they aren't worth much. I call a neighbor I work with who's good at fixing sheep, or I butcher them. If I had something infectious, or that is a complete mystery I would call a vet, but I haven't yet.
I haven't wormed any of my hair sheep either. Though I've had to do a couple woolies we brought in. Grazing management and genetics have replaced that job.
A friend a neighbor very successfuly doesn't trim hooves. Maybe someday we'll get there.
I understand your point about the vet. One vet visit will pretty much wipe out the profit on an animal unless they are something really special. Usually the only time I will consult with a vet is if I’m having a birthing issue that would require surgical intervention. Knock on wood, I haven’t seen the vet since 2019.
Worming seems to be something you deal with or you don’t. If we have sheep or goats with worm issues, they usually get culled. As you said, the hair sheep tend to do better with worms than the wool sheep. I have theories about why that is, but that’s a whole other video.
Our white face sheep need hoof trimming a couple times a year; the other breeds almost never need it. It seems that with a breed like a Dorset, you can almost watch the hoof grow. 😑
Thanks again for watching our videos!
@@LinessaFarms I'd like to hear your thoughts on that if you get around to making that video. Something have used and found effective you didn't mention is colloidal silver spray. I don't really put much stock in homeopathy as I don't really understand the concept, but I borrowed some for the only case of pink eye I've ever had, a little goat, and it cleared up over night.
We try to avoid any homeopathic topics as they tend to get kinda heated in the comments section. I once was going to do a video on diatomaceous earth people like to use for “worming” and after I read some of the comments on other videos, decided against it. With that being said, silver is an interesting topic because it does in fact kill bacteria. The interesting part is that the killed bacteria then goes “zombie” mode and will actually kill other bacteria after it’s dead. Check out this article.

Another cheap option for pink eye is regular old injectable penicillin (aqueous) dropped in the eye. Fixes them right up. 👍🏻
We will make a video about worming alternatives soon and will touch base on the sheep breed and worm issue. Thanks again for watching.
Starting new like your stuff jonlaw
