    Hey Karol, just a tip after my own experience of crashing my Drone. When i was getting it repaired i was told to watch the drone in the sky 80% and only look at the screen/controller 20%. I was watching the screen when i flew it into a tree. Best of luck 👍🏼

    well may you ware with the drone Karl. Blogs apart the drone would be a great tool to gather sheep. Sent it up first to check the ditches, it might save the legs

    You did a fine job with the drone. I love watching the dogs moving the sheep about. A slow market for lambs is unfortunate, but hopefully, next time the price will be in your favour. Thanks Karol.👍👍😁❤️

    Great work with the drone. Watching the dogs work the sheep was great. When the sheep are out in the field and hiding in the scrub, you'll be able to send the drone up to find them. I thought I saw 2 or 3, then round comes twenty.
    I've only started watching you so I don't know much about pricing. I watch Sandi here in Canada, and Cammy in Scotland so I somewhat know what a good price is there. Euros are new to me.

    Great video, yes your right with the piece at the end, it’s never the mart so long as there’s customers there be it cattle or sheep being sold, it depends who’s there and the online job is a great way too, widens the market and customer base. As they say , you can’t make a market of your own. All depends on the day . That drone will be very handy for covering ground and I could see it saving you a lot of walking looking for sheep, let alone for the videos, great video again Carl

    Poor price. Fertiliser meal and diesel prices really affecting trade at moment. Also It might be a bit late selling ewe lambs, more farmers to buy them earlier as they sold their hoggets.

    • @EweTubeIreland

    Is there an "alpha sheep" that other sheep tend to follow? Wondering if you could just focus on training that sheep, if such an "alpha sheep" exists, in hopes the others will follow.
