    Price is good, weather is unsettled so grass is being tramped as well as grazed. Cash in and replace with your pick of ewes before next tupping.

      100 percent, harsh shepherding but them ewes will be worth 120 at least cash in and replace there only going to eat ur grass all summer

    @paddyquirke4085 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I’d cash them in that way free up space and mayb replace with a few nice homebred lambs

  • @saragayle2217

    I would cash the ewes in as the prices are good at the moment, it will give you more money to put back into the flock.❤

    @norwalfarm 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    If the price is good and you have good replacements coming on, I recommend selling them.

  • @derekmagee3381
    @derekmagee3381 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Wouldn't be a question get rid of any empties when they are a good price

    If you’re not getting any return from the sheep,cash in while the price is good

    keep an eye on the market up here everything is at good money.
    I'd get rid of them now incase the price drops in the backend

  • @tallneh5
    @tallneh5 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Sell them, while the orice is high

  • @CaritasAngola
    @CaritasAngola 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The price is good right now. Sell them.

  • @youngfarmer5414
    @youngfarmer5414 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I think you should sell half the emty ewes only keep the smart looking ones and young sheep etc as cull prices are incredibly at the minuite 😊

  • @999Giustina
    @999Giustina 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I'm not a farmer but the sell or keep analysis is just a cost benefit analysis. If you have space and grass then keep them. If not, sell. Good luck!

    Thanks for taking the time to film for us when you are so busy.

  • @carolwilson2502
    @carolwilson2502 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I don’t have a clue re farming But I think I’ve watched enough from several of you on TH-cam to say-cash the empties etc in. Prices are so good at the moment which you can use to reinvest? However, if you look at the A flock ewes and spot and really good example then I’d give them a second chance!! Good luck with the b flock lambing 😊

  • @heather8303
    @heather8303 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Sell, if replacement ewes are expensive but still cheaper than feed/keep empty ewes, no brainer. Ps. I know nothing and am very ignorant about sheep farming. Lol

  • @lorrainesimpson2099

    Cash in. Its a business

    Sorry to hear there were so many aborted/lost lambs. It is frustrating but beyond your control. You take such good care of your animals. Josie is doing well. Cheers! 👍😊👍

  • @derekgladwin5163
    @derekgladwin5163 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Prices too good to miss

  • @budnspud
    @budnspud 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I think the calculations would be how much would it cost you to replace those A flock ewes next year? Or are the prices so high for good ewes that it might be worthwhile selling them?

  • @vickijones3660
    @vickijones3660 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Wishing you the best ! I enjoy your videos. You’re a man of integrity and compassion.

  • @westzed23
    @westzed23 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You choose your ewes well to improve the flock. Were these that abhorted among your top picks? With the unsettled weather this time, I would suggest keeping them. The market is good for selling, but would you get better ewes later when your buying? Just to think about.
    Great video today. So glad the lost lambs found their mums.🙂🐑🐑❤

  • @kman2324
    @kman2324 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Any chance the ewes that aborted have something that carries over to next year having issues? If there is a chance, I'd cash them in.

    You will find the Suffolk sired lambs a little more dopey at birth but once they get going the weight will pile on.

  • @jane4678
    @jane4678 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Dear Will, please stop bending your back! Use your thighs and knees and keep your back straight! U bend over all day and night! When getting lambs out of trailer.... Squat, not bend. Sending good back vibes! I have had multiple back surgeries... Not fun. Save your back now, it will thank u later! Brilliant work!

    • @CowleyHillFarm

    @vwvw4 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You always have that one that causes trouble......right Barbie! Hope your Suffolk crosses are spunky, IME the Suffolk lambs just lay there for an hour before getting up. Only did that cross once, never again.

    @gingegoff37 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi From Burgundy France, we are half way through lambing our small flock
    we have Suffolk X Charolais>>>big heavy lambs, plenty of hung lambs due to the size of the lambs, but they are super lambs
    hope all goes well for your lambing

  • @Mysmallholderlife
    @Mysmallholderlife 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Love you videos keep them up are you going to the 3 counties show

  • @malcolmcarlisle5771
    @malcolmcarlisle5771 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Will... Wonder why you only lift lambs out of the trailer and not add a small ramp at the front. If there is no other reason than never considering it it would save you time, your back and train the lambs to use the ramps. Just wondered.

    • @CowleyHillFarm
      @CowleyHillFarm  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      When a lot are a day old they just won’t walk down a ramp so it’s easier and more stress free to lift. On the rare occasion we do it like this video it could be a consideration

  • @johnbasler-hwr-moneytalks
    @johnbasler-hwr-moneytalks 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

  • @michaelleekinsey2
    @michaelleekinsey2 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Time to go to market. Save resources for productive ewes. Sad but fact of farming life.

    Will you are running a business sell those empty ewes the cull trade is flying at the moment

  • @wendyrowland7787
    @wendyrowland7787 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The aborted ewes will just get fat unless they are kept down on poor forage. Fat ewes also prone to twin lamb disease.

  • @janinebrown2280
    @janinebrown2280 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Keep in and let them be moms, if that can make sense for your farm. If it was disease, they should be all week for next time. Love your channel Will, so interesting🫶
