    I'm sorry i have not been around for a couple weeks. "helene!" Need i say more. I'm sure you heard about the North Carolina mountains wiping out towns! Well i'm 70 miles east of that. And man did we get tore up here in the foot hills. 10 days no power and no water. But I had a home to get power back on. Alot of those poor people have no homes or businesses any longer. Pray for those people please. Great video. Really enjoyed. Thanks for taking me along. From Shelby N.C. thanks!

    Two things I have heard said. 1 The ram on home ground has an advantage and 2 There is always a chance that the smaller ram because of the height difference and the fact the smaller will hit on the larger ones nose, the largest may end up with a broken neck. Anyone else heard that? Great vid as always 👍

    Add a couple of gate valves on your spray boom line, it would make it simple to cut off the valves you don’t want to use.
    Glad to see you making progress to be more self sufficient. Pray for America and Israel. God is still in control and prayer changes things!

    Cut wrap off bale before you pick it up, pick bale up and put it over feeder and then cut string, everything falls in the feeder and you dont have to deal with pulling wrap out.

    Evan, I don’t recall the breed of sheep you’ve chosen, but if ever you are looking for another source you might check out Walker Club Lambs in Clinton, IN. I know the owner and I think you’ll find him to be a stand up fellow.

    Great video, I know nothing about sheep or how to introduce them to each other. I can tell you're not a cat person, Spaz is actually a cat you could pick up under the front leg chest area instead of the nape of the neck area. Barnyard cats keeping down the mice population can be a good thing. I suspect Rebecca is behind you guys having cats, they can be useful.

    Now you have to find a way to dispose of all that plastic wrap. Does it make enough difference for the extra waste that can't be recycled. If all the homestead people used hay wrap we would need extra landfill. Plastic wrap is like disposing a tire at the dump.

    I've never heard someone explain why they keep sheep. Why not just get another cow or two. Do you eat mutton?? Having Sheep seem comparable to having pockets with holes in them?? Could you explain why people have a few sheep on the homestead?
