Shearing a Big Bunny?

- This week Cammy shears a Border Leicester, famous for its huge ears! As this is a younger sheep, it certainly has the energy to be jumping around like a rabbit, but can Cammy tame her!
We are on a mission to shear every breed in Britain! There are well over 75, so sit back, subscribe and enjoy the shear tranformations!
Cheers
That bunny sheep sure knows how to hop
That's actually the real Easter bunny, but no one likes to talk about it. . . .
IF I were going to raise sheep, these are the ones I would have.. because the ears make me smile
Well reading that cheers me up , as a shepherd I too keep sheep that make me proud and happy , and the value is more that what they sell for.
I feel like, especially in farming ANY animal, you NEED to have a deep love for that species/breed. Otherwise you would just get bored. So "smiles" are DEFINITELY a "must have"!
Me too!
@@kristaprice1954 helo my friend !
Haha! Definitely the biggest rabbit I’ve seen😄
Agreed 💯 😂
Thanks for explaining the difference of a hogget & a gimmer. I've learnt something new tonight. Those ears are huge, a real bunny-sheep & bouncy too. Congratulations again on wee Bonnie. Lizzy did a fantastic job 🇦🇺🦘🐨.
Those ears are huge! She certainly took a bit of holding on to 😂 Beautiful sheep ❤
Has to be one of my absolute favorites! Imagine crossing these with Jacobs! What a insanely fun and weird mix. ;-D
What a lovely steading , great hogget , thats what we call them in Ireland , good choice in the battery clippers , I use the same 'Cordless Shear 'and fine them so handy for dagging and shearing any that are maggoted .Congratulations on a beautiful baby girl .
You’re almost to 100000 on this channel too Cammy. I love shearing season as I can see the skill and precision it takes to do this tough job. Congratulations on baby Bonnie by the way.
Border leicester's got to be my favorite bread. So much personality and just fun to look at. Very feisty bread. Not afraid of jumping/running through electric fences and arent afraid of stamping there feet and giving a head butt if provoked.
Love Shearing Season you are easy to understand and teach us non farmers so much…..Congratulations to Lizzie and You on the birth of your beautiful little girl Bonnie….You have a very busy household with two toddlers and a newborn…..wishing you and your family many blessings this year with your sheep farming.
Congratulations Cammy on helping Lizzie have Bonnie. At least I hope you did!
I didn't realize how much I missed you shearing, thank you.
A Hogget looks like something you'd run into while hunting wild Haggis. 🤣
"I saw a sheep rabbity thing but it wasna a rabbit, but it was mostly a sheep!?"
It looks like a shrunken llama in sheep's wool!
I feel like the editing and videoing game on Shearing Season, not to mention The Sheep Game, have been stepped upped quite a few notches this last season! And I'm SO here for ALL of it!
Great video. Much love and big congratulations on your new little girl.
💜🇨🇦
A long with the ears I love that the face stays clean ❤❤
Oooo...fiber envy strikes and my fingers begin to twitch...as if I do not have enough spinning to do already 😆. Congratulations to you and Lizzie on your new baby girl, beautiful. ❣
Great video. They certainly stand out with those ling ears.
Gorgeous sheep & another beautiful fleece
Omg, that fleece. All the beautiful woolen items I could make from that. And the color would dye so nicely! Thanks for the video.
There is something so interesting about watching someone else work so hard!
That intro 🤌🏼 this place was recently listed? I recognize it!
I absolutely love those ears.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just read in these comments that you wer Bonnie has arrived! Congratulations to you and Lizzy and the two big brothers 💓. What a beautiful family. That was a lovely sheep, and the best person to give her the first haircut. You are so calm and kind, talking with her about the process. Much love to you all.
Nicely done! Your calm energy is precious! Thanks for sharing! Love from the USA!
Oh, those ears! I love 'em!
First comment awesome as❤u guys so much & congratulations for the baby 👍👍🥂🥂🍻🍻🇦🇺🇦🇺
I never knew there were so many different breeds of sheep! Just started your channel today and I’m blown away!
Same here, I had no idea.
They always struggle and are happy once sheared. Just like when an adult keeps refusing to ask for help and once they give in, they're happy they received the help.
Oh my gosh. That sheep is so cute! Thank you for explaining the terms for us. Maybe a few more times and I should have it. 😂
I admit I've only ever watched these video on mute while I've had audiobooks on, how lovely to hear your voice this time! This rabbit-sheep is adorable. I want one.
Such an beautiful breed ❤ And the video did a great job capturing the fine hand movements you use to move the skin around…great job!
Beautiful sheep. Beautiful titular farm.
I love watching you shear, it’s so beautiful. ❤❤
Cammy would you shear differently if someone wanted the wool for hand spinning
Im also guessing since its been 5 days since the last Sheep Game video they've welcomed their baby girl. I USUALLY don't stan other people or celebrities but THIS family i will WHOLEHEARTEDLY route for with ALL my heart!!
That was a gorgeous sheep.
3:30 You could certainly hear the difference in rpm between the old and new batteries. 👍
One of my favorite breeds of wool to spin. Lovely!
You did a beautifully smooth job of shearing her Cammy, she looks great! As a hand spinner I wish that I could get some of that gorgeous fleece to spin!
Her ears look even bigger now, odd how they go upwards as other breeds go out/downwards.
The pinkness of their skin looks the same as my puppy's belly after she's been to the groomer 💕
What a lovely farm!
Loving your channel I was watching LONG HORN LESTER and decided to watch your channel, I am loving it. I am 83 and love watching the videos, helps me past the day. ❤️ I subscribed
Looks like a bunny and sheep combination ❤
Love watching these ❤
No way, that's low merryton farm! Just 5 minutes from me.
Lovely shear
Looks like a living jackalope.
As I watch you shear many of these sheep breeds it makes me want to get my hands on some of those fleeces for spinning. I don't know what the laws are for you in the UK right now as to where the fleeces have to go, but you could certainly add to your income by selling some to spinners. Sure would pay better than the wool pool. I got to try small samples of a few British breeds several years ago, and would love to have a chance to try some more. (I'm in the US.) That Border Leicester looks gorgeous!
Congrats on Bonnie! Lizzie is a treasure. In future videos can you add some info about how the shearring may be different for various breeds, breed characteristics, and maybe show a close up of some of the wool. That looked like it had great crimp.
great to see you!🦌💌❤️🐑
Lovely crimp in that wool! Would love to hand spin that!
I love this type of sheep. They're so cute! I just want one as a pet honestly
Soooo you meant to tell me that a sheep and a rabbit got snuggly once and created these guys?? I love them so much.
Nice shearing, cammy .
Those sheep are adorable!!! I want one!!! A bunny sheep. (Jan Griffiths).
Donkey lugs! 👂🤣
she's a beauty
Such a sweet face. And those ears! She's adorable!
congratulations Lizzie and Cami on the birth of beautiful Bonnie - Jock holding Bonnie in the sorts was so funny
Lovely fleece! What do you do with the fleece? I would spin it ❤❤
Rabbit????? 🤣🤦♀️
love it.
They look like they are a cross between a Jack Rabbit and a Donkey with those ears.
I am always amazed at how white they are underneath!
Gorgeous gimmer!
Lovely long fleece, I wonder what the staple is like 🤔🤔
BUNNY SHEEP!!!!!
i know you're busy thanks for taking the time for making a shearing vid
Hogget: Hey! This is MY Wool, I grew it for my entire life! How dare you take it from me! And why am I on my bum!? You're cheecky, aren't you?!
Gimmer: Woe, I feel so light and cool suddenly! Let me go hit up that grass, let go of me!
LOL
Good job with this lass, Cammy, she's surely more comfortable in the heat of Spring and Summer. Thanks for sharing!
Wow I’ve never saw this breed of sheep before! I live in Scotland, where are these breed of sheep raised ? Great Job on the Shearing 🥰💖💖
This is the fastest shearing process I’ve ever seen.
Hi! New here. I have questions! She doesn't seem to be excited about the shearing. I know it's needed, though. How many times a year do you shear a sheep? Do you have to trim their hooves? Do they bite? Do you need to give a sheep a bath? Did you grow up learning how to do this, or did you go to school?
Just discovered this channel. You have to be part wrestler, part weight lifter, part martial artist, part barber, part animal tamer, and like a urologist, know how to get around the "gentlemanly parts!"
Question(s): are there names for three, four, five, etc. year-old sheep. And what would make Fiona, who had missed being shorn for a year or two?
Those ears...!
Wonderful video. Where will the wool go now?
👌
It's a SHEEPAROO!! ;D
That handpiece would be like shearing with a twelve foot boat
That is one strange looking sheep!
Jackalopes! They're real!
So whats the dufference between a hogget and a hog? They arent the same thing, are they? I was sure you called some of your sheep hogs and some gimmers at lambing time, but never heard hogget before. So interesting!
Imagine doing this with a manual clipper!
Bunny ears!
I've been searching for an answer to this question for so long and only Cammy or other shearers like him can answer it. It isn't a question that can be looked up, I've tried. I've seen in North America where show sheep or an odd or difficult one like the 4 horn Jacob that outweighed him, have been sheared? shorn? while the sheep is tethered and standing. Why does Cammy and others not do this? Anyone know? Is it a regional preference? I'm not saying when he has 20, 30, 100+ to do but what about training the heavy boys, show sheep (like the 4 horn Jacob) or other hard to shear sheep like that or do they actually do that and just not film it? I'm positive it's done in places other than North America but since I live here that's where most of the algorithm suggestions come from. I have a bad back from a condition and I see him trying to toss around huge numbers of sheep or very heavy ones and I can't help but think of the high probability of him having major back problems in as soon as 10 years.
Looks a bit of a job!
Says she sitting here with covid itching to get out there to shear some well risen Shetlands 😢
Good girls 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
so that's how we get green wool
You should try a Brecknock hill Cheviot next
Laama ears🥰
Does it matter that the wool is so dirty, especially around her bottom?
Nice looking ewe
That look like a giant bunny rabbit
Heah, I was just goijng to ask what sort of battery life you get and your 1st one died !I'm guessing that had some use prior.
Look at that pen stain!. I find British sheep so small compared to new Zealand sheep like your Suffolks. NZ ones are double the size easy
You could make some wool clothing and sell it on your Fed by Framers and Sheep the game.Platforms
I wonder what they did in ancient times when they didn't have the electric trimmer that you have - how did they shear their sheep? The bible talks about sheep and I can't help but wonder how they were sheared.
Wait what is this creature? lol how does this sheep have bunny ears?
What is the rate now per ewe? £2? Do you charge extra for hoggets due to the belly wool?
Anyone know what the ears do if these are crossed with short eared sheep!?
