    Your family is not afraid of work. Was nice to see Joanne on there. I have missed seeing her on her channel. Serves her right that you didn’t edit out her being silly 😄

    Greetings from Wisconsin, USA. Just came across your channel and subscribed. My father's side of family Irish heritage, his mother was 1st generation Irish American. We hailed from County Kerry and County Mayo. I've been to Ireland once back in 2002 for about 2 weeks. Absolutely fell in love with her!! Looking forward to return visit someday again. Great channel!

      My family has a farm in SW Wisconsin and while we're from Norway I always felt so close and support from other farmers in the area.

    Every thought of trying a different hillbreed of sheep like a swale or Dalesbreds

    • @ewetube.videos
      @ewetube.videos  2 роки тому +3

      We run swale rams on the benbulben flock every couple of years, it's a good mountain though. Down in Gleniff where they are is slightly poorer so we stick to the hardy Mayo. There's a demand for genuine Mayo breeding sheep so I usually sell a few per year!

    It is nice to see the young ones learning the trade.
    You people who raise sheep are to be admired ,you are all such hard working people.
    I am coming to you from Northern California in the Bay Area.
    Looking forward to future Vlogs!!

    Say I'd the mother had twin lamb and one was a ram lamb and one was a ewe lamb and u took the ram lamb would the mother not get mastitis or something or have only 1 spin next year ?

    • @ewetube.videos
      @ewetube.videos  Рік тому +1

      They're all singles up there, the twins are kept down on grass for the summer. Good point though! All would probably want to be weaned at once by right.
