Poor Jess' face upon learning she had to insert "tampons" into sheep 🤣
LOL!!!
lol
And when she realizes she isn't putting them in the sheep only in inserter lol
@@marymacdonald1694 yeah thats lol
Lol, I was just going to comment on the faces she is making while Sandi give the refresher of how this works. 😆
Jess looked so relieved when she realized that you meant she was only putting CIDRs into applicators into applicators and NOT the ewe lambs, lol
Her face was so funny
Omg those facial expressions are GOLD!!! And then total relief when she doesn’t have to put them in 😂😂😂😂😂
Ditto! She's hilarious!
pure comedy, but going to be a great leader like her mum 😊
The facial expressions are everything! 😂😂
right!?? LOL
I was rolling 🤣🤣🤣
When Jess said "Oh thank Gaaawd!" lmao I rolled!!
LOL!!!!
I absolutely loved Jess and her expressions. She is so cute and she really wasn't happy. But out there anyway helping Mom. Good Job, Jess.
There is the birds and the bee’s talk, and then there is the Sandi Brock upper level B&B talk. You go Jess🤣🤣🤣
Sandy you work so hard to share your day with us, I appreciate your efforts that give us a window in your work!
I howled laughing at the expressions Jess was pulling when she thought you wanted her to insert the Cidars 😂😂😂... It does look like a Tampon! 😂😂😂. I’m a city girl, no farming background at all but I love love love following you and learning all about your flock and the farm; thank you for filming for us, it must add more workload to your day but just know that your efforts are much appreciated. Many Regards, Jenny from Dublin, Southern Ireland 🇮🇪☘️☘️☘️👌
OMG Jess is soo funny! Had me laughing so hard. Her facial expressions are soo funny.
LOL!!!
She so telegraphs her every thought on her face!! LOL
Like mother, like daughter!
Am I the only one that thinks of the Sledge o' Matic when Sandi says Gallagher?
Nope...
I as well! I saw him perform in Las Vegas a couple times. Very funny.
He was funny but got old
He was totally hilarious!!
Jess' facial expressions are SO LIKE YOU 😂😂😂
LOL!!
Good morning Sandi, we are going thru replacement ewes at the moment also. We sent the ram lambs off a while back with the broker. We kept the ewe lambs because we lost so many ewes in our 2019/2020 group. Because we breed for wool and not meat, we are looking for the best wool production thru the parental line. Each ewe lamb has to build quality wool with little to no dreads (clumped wool). Because we sell wool to those that spin and weave, dreaded wool is not good.
Anyways Happy Birthday to Jess. Have great day.
Thank you for explaining that! Great to hear another aspect on selecting for different traits!! So important!!
@@SandiBrock dreaded wool that is tightly bound will not accept dyeing well. Even thru the combing/ carding for spinning it can be a very trying experience to comb/card out. The dyeing process looks like tie dye not popular in day and age.
@Paperwing Mn USA. We sell our wool ourselves. By the whole fleece.
How totally interesting!
Thanks for sharing that👍
I love it when Jess is with you! Double gorgeous smiles!! 😊. Sandie, you are brilliant in talking to the camera; I always feel like you’re speaking directly to me. 👍👏👏👏
Thats great to know Jerry! It can be very intimidating talking to the camera!!
Sandi I just wanted to say that I enjoy your smile. I love your shadow (Kinsey) 😄. I have learned so much about sheep and farming. Your whole family is amazing. God bless you and your family.
Love your videos Sandi, you and your sheep’s have become my stress reliever in this world of madness... Sending y’all love and blessings from Pennsylvania USA 🇺🇸🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼
As an educator for 30 years, you would make a great high school/college AG teacher!!!!!
Alice A I agree
I would have loved to have a workshop about this in my ag department!!
Happy Birthday to Jess! She’ll never make a poker player with that expressive face lol. She’s a beautiful young woman.
As someone who has had an IUD... I can relate to Jess' expressions hahahaha
LOL!!
@@SandiBrock Sheep luckily don't have their feet in the air for the process 😂
@@MissKristiLee I hated getting mine 😂 all part of transitioning for me lol
@@greengoblinboy585 I am so sorry! I hope you didn't have a dysphoria lapse because of it! Congratulations on your transition!!!!
@@MissKristiLee ah thank you!! :")💕 I did for a while but I'm doing great now! I'm all done with my transition now that I'm happy with my top surgery and IUD so hearing you understand that made me really happy 💜💜💜💜💜
Jess said some time ago she just doesn’t like working with sheep.
Now, working with machinery is much more her speed!
You're right!
That's so cool!! A young woman who can work on machinery, trucks & cars! The possibilities are endless!! You go Jess!!!
To her advantage she is very tall. Many machines are not built for small females to use, service etc.
...except driving the fields gives her a major headache :(
Hi jess, I want to say thank you for being such a trooper towards your mom even if you may not want to do it. As a 29 year old I would like to tell you my story... my dad passed away 2 years ago, he was 51 years old and suffered a brain stroke. Before his passing I didn’t like doing anything my parents asked, I would always ask “why” but still do it I would always get upset when told to. I never appreciate my parents mostly my dad because he came to American when he was super young from Laos, his family suffered a lot and his dad was never there for him and his siblings. Once my dad married my mom (early 20s) he decided to start a restaurant and he worked every day. Both my parents worked hard and never really had time off..as a kid I never realized they sacrificed a lot for us to be happy. Parents don’t always understand or know what we as kids are thinking and some times they don’t know how to show love or really know whAt they are doing but one thing for sure is that, appropriate them for who they are and what they do because you will never know what will happen in the future. I just turned 27 when my dad passed and there isn’t a day we’re I thought “what if I did this differently, what if” but in reality for me it’s to late. I now go on daily doing the most and never arguing or not wanting to do something because i couldn’t do it when I was younger before my dad passed. So again I would like to say JESS your mom and dad is amazing you are also amazing for helping them. Thank you and best luck to everyone’s future.
Jess’s face when you said yes misunderstanding her question was the best! The next 30 sec -1 min until you cleared that up I couldn’t stop laughing because I knew what you were meaning and what she was meaning and was thinking how she was prob praying that dad would call for her to do ANYTHING but this out in that hot field
Jess, you are so precious. Jess is such wonderful helper for you and her dad. 🥰🥰🥰
Awesome vlog. You’re speaking to the camera and you look so good, a professional. Thanks, and please if you remember, tell Jess she’s funny and awesome too.
I enjoyed your daughters expressions too...so funny..made me laugh..thank you for the uplift..golden moments....LOL
I know I wouldn't make a very good livestock farmer...because when you said, "Rusty's not staying," my heart sunk! I read through most of the comments and I'm thrilled to see that you "have an idea for Rusty!" Can't wait to hear what it is! I've said it a few days ago...maybe on Mark's video...but HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JESS! Thanks for another great sheep farming video, Sandi!
Thank you Sandi for these few moments in the day that fill the spirit with some joy. So thankful for all you do and that you take your time to educate. Have a safe and blessed day 🤍🐑🤍
Thank GOD for your Gallagher and your Strong Mind. This is a job where Organization is Critical.👍
Thank you Jess for making me laugh!! Oh and Sandi .... the editing on the montage shots was incredible!!!
We will never raise sheep but find your videos to be very entertaining.
Great Video! I love seeing how stats help you make decisions. Thank you for letting us peek into this part of your operation.
You have brought a new interest into my life. Thank you for all your knowledge and hard work. Please know that you are appreciated out here. 💖
Love the eye roll of your daughter. Yet don't blame her. She lives on a farm and may have to do new experiences.
I love LOVE when you and Jess are working together!
Gosh I was cracking up at Jess's reactions🤣too funny. Always something to learn, I love all the aspects of how you manage your sheep. Thank you for the update 💕from Michigan.
jess cracks me up with laughter the faces she pulls, she is such an amazing young lady
You gotta remember how bad the heat has been. Thats got to affect them just like it does us.
The look of relief on Jess's face was gold!
Hilarious! The misunderstanding about the Cidrs 😂 Jess is awesome.
You are a very good teacher sandi I under stood everything now babies are coming again love this so much subscribed on Jess page excited to see what she going to do and she does have funny faces lol do I have to stick them in ? You said yes lol to funny
Thanks for explaining ewe replacement. I had been wondering how you decide. Also the look on Jess face starting Cidrs priceless. Lol
Mother daughter time😂👍 Omgoodness Sandi I love it
You do such a great job of breaking everything down and really explaining things well. I know it can’t be easy trying to answer all of the questions, but if it makes you feel any better.... you do it well :).
Miss Jess was soooo relieved when she realised she didnt have to insert the "tampons" into the ewes 😂🇦🇺
Love y’all and happy birthday to jess❤️ You two look so alike and have similar facial expressions it’s so sooo entertaining...
jess is so precious with her facials haha i love the stop motion time lapse in this video rather than super speed! subtle changes are so nice!
Haha, I love beautiful Jess, she looks soo excited about her part in this exercise. Love it.
Poor Jess. LOL! She is a trooper, willing to help even though she is not like Mom when it comes to the sheep.
I love Jess's Facial expression, She makes me Laugh, She is a trip.
Sandi there seems to be a lot of support for you to be part of ag programs, as a speaker, teacher. Totally agree. You have thousands of students, fans, supporters already😄
I love how Jess is a Mini-You - looks, mannerisms, etc. Also: she is comedic GOLD at times!
I was thinking about something you said the othr day about the birds - how you wished there weren't as many. I'm seeing a good mix of swallows and sparrows, and the swallows are a godsend for animals, because they really help keep down the insect count in a barn. Sparrows are more into grain as well, but will take the occasional bug too.
johanne brøsted mini sandi, yes, but her daddy “marked” her
Thank you Sandi! Really useful information here. I have already read some books, but sure watching your videos beats that! Ahaha and I remember everything and it's super fun! Thank you so much.
Great helper u have Sandi
I still can't get over the fact that I (and many others) thought it was Seeder not CIDR.
I heard it as Cedar. I thought it was some sort of brand name.
Sorry! So many acronyms in farming!!
That's ok when I first started watching I thought cedars were a breed of sheep. The breed the was breeding the ewes to. LOL
I figured it was a pun in the acronym meant to evoke the idea of seeding?
Because you sort of are. Lol
Fizel Shiba I thought cedar at first. We learn so much from our dear Sandi ❤️🇨🇦☕️☕️
After childbirth & rearing kids nothing phases or grosses most of us out anymore, but I remember being grossed out by things like this at her age.. (once upon a time, long long ago lol) Her relief was comical though!
Jess’ face when you said, “ she’s never done this before” 😂
Sandi, I cannot wait to see what happens with those Steeles. It's a fascinating thing to watch, without the work. lol.
I loved Jess face every time she thought she had to do your part of the job I think she had to force herself just to touch the stuff then she was looking at them all fascinated she is funny do you think ruby will recognise ruby sue when she goes in with the big girls
I'm not sure!
Never thought about the female worker during this. Farm girls have different experience than I thought... (pandemic binge learning...)
New needle each time? Auto doser same needle used
@@randalllaue4042 no ....there is a new needle about every 10 injections. Animals are NOT like humans...a new needle isn’t needed...in this case ( vaccines)
The look on Jess' face was priceless when she thought she was inserting the CIDRS. Have never seen her looking so down. The look on her face when she was told of the misunderstanding was great. Beautiful smile Jess
Teenagers facial expressions are priceless 😜 adds up to a whole lot of comedy for the rest of us to🤣🤣 Hope in the end it wasn't too bad for Jess.
You two are hilarious 😂 loving the facial expressions 🤣 I pull some serious expressions when I'm concentrating on something... Famous expression of mine is the trout mouth 🤣🤣🤣
It was pretty awesome the first ewe lamb made the cut! "Send me in, Coach!" 😊
LOL!
I am not a farmer by any means. But watching your videos helps to take the stress away (especially working from home). I've been watching your videos for over a year and having you show us everything you endure to raise your herd (idk if thats what a group of sheep is called) makes me appreciate farmers more. Ps we are now buying from small farmers and butchers in our area. Thanks for sharing!!!🤗🤗
that is so great to hear!
Your such a busy lady it's amazing I'm wore out just watching
Jess is an amazing girl...so much additude and all on her face🤣🤣 It must be hard to hide when her face says it all!
ruby-sue is a keeper but her twin dropped the ball...poor rusty but he could make a good ram for someone else so he has hope. and I hear you about replacement vs the cull numbers....when we kept heifers back they had to have good mom's and a good dad...it's a long process but worth it!
Got love a Teenage face when told things they didn't wanted to hear like the birds and the bees story for sheep LOL.
Your face was great When Jess was happy she was not putting them up lol
Hi again SANDI
Your explanations are always informative and helpful. Especially for new shepherds. Hope things that seem problematic will take a turn and not be so difficult. All is good stuff especially for new shepherds.
Keep healthy. Thx as always...
This was very interesting. Jess cracked me up with her facial expressions.
Jess cracked me up, I will leave it that. Thanks Sandi & (Jess) . God Bless.
At the beginning when you and Jess were setting up and you were explaining the seeder loading, you had a little hummingbird fluttering around behind y’all! You could see it against the barn door! 🥰🥰🥰
And Kinsey buzzing around like she's head honcho. I have a border that is just like that. so funny.
When Jess thought she had to do it also her face was priceless!!! LOL!!! So I am guessing veterinary and medical schools are out. LOL!!! Jess do like me well you can't do like I did not quite. Look into being a Mountie. Even though we still farm and raise cattle I followed in my dad's footsteps and became a Trooper. I love it!!! But love farming also it can be like everything aggravating but never a dull moment. LOL!!!
Glad its you that has to make the decision on who you keep. Guess you are the farmer not me. God bless you from Michigan
Loved Jes' facial expressions!!
Sandi, don't let the growth patterns of the lambs from the terminal sires colour your judgement of the replacements . I find that the Rideau ewe lambs lean out and grow slower at about the 80 lb mark .They should be growing out their frame and increasing body capacity . The replacements look good .
Love the fast time lapse cut editing! Really nice to see.
Jess was hilarious! I feel ya baby! LOL!
Interesting stuff!
The bird behind Jess was like "How to I get out? The door is closed." Lol
Make sure you clean the galager wand after using, it'll have residual hormone on it...Love her expressions...😂🤣
Oh thank goodness! Something Nice and good to watch on UA-cam!
Thanks Cheryl!
@@SandiBrock Thank YOU Sandi! I was caught in a bad loop of "mask disputes" and "Karen's" garbage coming up on my suggested viewing yesterday, It left me feeling lousy. Your notification bell today was a delight!
Omg the facial expressions pop ups are the best.
I find everything ur doing educational. Thanks for talking us thru it!
Jess’ eye roll 🙄 jess’ relief 😅.
Just a thought.... if you want a photo of the young Billy lamb rams this would be the time to do it as they are freshly shorn and clean. You could add the the black and white theme bugs I gotta Kinsey in the photo as well.
Sheepishly Two! 😂 You and Jess make a great team! Well done, ladies!
I really loved the “stop motion” (I think that’s what it’s called) editing parts of the video. Very clever.
Thanks!!!
Very interesting as always sandi xxx
Aww Jess was so funny and cute. Sandi I have been watching you for a bit and being that you and your daughters are so tall and watching you bend over your table, why not get a tall rolling kitchen table to not only put your supplies/ Gallagher on top, but they come with drawers and places to put items you need and really would not take up much space. It would save your back a little. I realize you have to bend over the sheep to vaccinate and CiDR, but if you did not have to bend over for your other items I think it would help your back. I was also thinking there would not be as much lag time when doing CiDRs if your supplies were closer and you could roll the table back to where you start and then bring it forward as you do each ewe. That way you are not waiting on your helper so much or if you do not have a helper going back and forth so many times. Love your videos, your family and the sheep.
You are the second one to suggest this! Brilliant idea!!
Thank you, love watching you work your babies
As I’m watching your video, the fact that your strap is twisted has all my attention! LOL
This is fascinating- Thank you for showing us how you make decisions in your business. It's fascinating to me to see how different types of livestock are "graded" in terms of holdback potential. I've had a pig farmer tell me that their top 10% of gilts get held back for breeding to produce at least 1 litter before they make a final decision, but those are animals that have 12+ babies. When you have the potential for 2-5 lambs per ewe it makes sense not to hold back anything that was a singleton. In horses, with a maximum breeding potential (without using surrogates) of 1 foal per year, most breeders and registries will consider the top 30% of females as breeding quality.
All your videos make my day... but today's, OMG, Jess is just making my week!! Facial expressions are exactly what I needed to see today! 😂❤
Another great video Sandi and yeah your daughter's face was priceless. Video was right on time today so that must mean no issues in the barn today. Lol I'll be sending off your gift tomorrow.
LOL! no issues today thank goodness!
Thank you for always working so hard. You teach me so much every video. Thank you Thank you Thank you
So sad for Rusty, please give it to Belinda....we need to save it ❤❤🐑 thank you for all your you tube video, Instagram, etc Un gros merci et bonne journée à toi et toute ta famille.
Lol Jess your facial expressions 🤣🤣🤣, bless you assisting your mum 😇
Thanks for having farm videos. I miss my uncle farm. Your doing a great job!
I like the new fun editing effect for the super speed sections : )
Such enthusiasm lol.
Jess is so adorable Sandi. You and Mark raised a wonderful adult.
