    Fascinating on a dozen levels. Great videography, but the impromptu captures of family dynamics, culture, and work are most compelling. Once again, great job. Ty for sharing this.

      Ahe' hee we appreciate your support and checking out the video. This was our first experiment of doing a video for the viewers to watching as a fly on the wall. Heavily inspired by the long shots from Blade Runner. 🤙🏾

    💈
    Those electric sheep shears are a whole lot faster than the old fashioned hand shears.
    Just like in us humans, a sheep's skin has pores that produce oils to hydrate the surface of the body. These oils, called lanolin, have a deep moisturizing effect on human skin and hair. It locks existing moisture into the skin and absorbs additional moisture from the air around it.
    Lanolin, also called wool fat, wool yolk, wool wax, sheep grease, or wool grease, is a wax secreted by the sebaceous glands of wool-bearing animals. Lanolin used by humans comes from domestic sheep breeds that are raised specifically for their wool.

      Agreed, Mr Sandoval washed away the ticks with apple cider vinegar and the sheep were all checking each other out after the wools was sheared off, ha

      For real, I did shear most of the sheep but my impromptu cameraman said my GoPro was glitching. So I stopped to trouble shoot and that night when I went to pick up my wife from the airport, the vehicle still smelled like sheep, haha. #RezLife 🤙🏾

    My favorite part about New Mexico is that it was Texas.

    Do Navajos still dump their livestock in a pool of bug medicine or herbs?

    • @Spagoshi
      @Spagoshi  4 місяці тому +1

      Never heard of that being done. I know the wool is cleaned after it's been sheared. Where did you hear that?
