ABOUT ME
I’m 33 years old and I’m a sheep farmer from Ayrshire in South West Scotland, which is why I have such a strong accent! I was born and raised on a sheep farm watching my dad who was the shepherd.
At 18 I went away from farming to work in the city s a Police Officer and at 23 (2013) I decided I wanted to do something for some extra money so I went on a sheep shearing course. The hardest thing I’ll ever do was learning to shear sheep. [shudders thinking about it]
I shore whilst on my holidays from work for 2 years and then in 2015 my dad died so I decided to get my own sheep so I could continue working with sheep as it was something I loved doing. From there it escalated quickly from my first 4 sheep in my mum’s garden to now running around 1200 breeding ewes.
A few years ago I bought myself a sheep pregnancy scanner and have been building up my run since then.
I watched a few farm vlogs on UA-cam and decided I could have a go and now here we are!
Since starting The Sheep Game I have met Lizzy and had two incredible boys Jock and Angus. You will see them all on this channel!
Thanks for watching my videos and please subscribe if you want to see more in future.
It's a completely different world when the sun is shining!
lol had to laugh 🤭 when you said the ewe was watching the sheep game ❤
She’s smart going in the stones area ❤
“Mecca’s that way!” 😂😂😂
Hello again! I really wonder how you do it: A twice full time farming job, each day a 25+ minutes video, a podcast, (just yesterday), being a husband and father and much more! Just take care of yourself! And, of course, thank you for the great content, information and entertainment!
Jock throwing the feed out the feed trailer was just so cute! 😊
Little Jock has to be one of the fittest toddlers in Scotland with all the running around he gets to do. Forever looking to chase after and caring for his sheep. Love the Jock cam. Get him a go pro and strap it on him.😊 ❤ 🐑 🐑 🐏
Beautiful scenery with sheep and their lambs on the green fields. Wee Jock and his lambie friend is hilarious. Hope the weather holds.
It’s great to see you having good days, Cammie. And it’s a joy, an absolute joy, to watch Jock and Angus as they grow and develop. When Jock greets you with such happiness it just melts me. So happy you have this.
What a fabulous upbringing Jock is having, absolutely love watching him and Angus play and ‘help’ you! Xx
Nice to see you end the vlog with the sun shining on your face. 😊
Absolutely love seeing you, Lizzy and the boys working the sheep. There is no better way to raise children than farming!!
Ewes on their backs: "HEEEELP! I'VE FALLEN.....AND I CAN'T GET UUUUUUP!!!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
One of my favorite childhood memories is riding in the back of my great-uncle's pickup truck when he went to hay the cattle. Your boys are lucky to have you for parents.
Thank you for being honest in your videos about the ups and downs of sheep farming, and farming in general. But, especially...thank you for sharing your time with your lovely family with us. It's been an incredible thing to see Jock and Angus grow.
Sunshine makes a huge difference to the whole lambing experience. Jock and Angus are thriving. Hopefully Lizzie is feeling fine and getting some rest time.
Cammie lambing will soon be over and your baby girl will be born soon to be a lil sister to your healthy happy boys. Lizzy loves you. You are an incredibly lucky man. Congrats and love from Mississippi.
Love Jock’s lammy run, he has a great childhood playing with the babies. He will have wonderful memories and stories to tell his children ❤
That shot of the ewe on her back with all four legs in the air made me laugh out loud. Brilliant!
I was thinking that would make a great t-shirt!
I just love when Jock and Angus are lambing and videoing with dad, birthing and all
Killies looking good Cammy, Jock cam and his Lamb walk/run is just sheer delight. Angus is adorable, no cry nothing just chilled out and decided sitting was best. Hope the rest of the lambing goes good. Much love to Lizzie, the boys & yourself from sunny Glasgow 🏴🐑🐑🐑
I looked at where you are...just south of all those mountains I think of as Scotland. I would love to see that part of the world, because my dad's people came from Scotland many generations back. Mom was registered Cherokee, but my dad was a McDonald, as am I. All my siblings had black hair and olive colored skin. I was the "Blonde Sheep" in the family.
Jock is going to be running the UA-cam channel in a few years. lol. Also love that hoodie!what a cute town.
If the sheep actually watched The Sheep Game, they'd appreciate all your hard work much more! That gave me a good laugh just thinking about it! Also, I love it when you say, "Just out the wrapper!". This is my second time through this episode, so I'm noticing things I missed the first time on the members version. It's wonderful to see how the weather has lifted everybody's spirits! Wishing you all many more sunny days 🌞🌞🌞. Off to write another complaint to UA-cam for demonetizing you!
I just love Angus ❤ of course the jock cam is fun, but it's so cute watching Angus every now and then! He seems so sweet!
I’m fare sure your dad would be very proud of you and what you have achieved
With Lizzy by your side and Jock and Angus around your ankles.
I love ur channel I didn’t realise that sheep farming was so hard I come from a farming background ground I thought vegies were hard I take my hat off to u and Lizzy hugs to u all
Amazing how this lambing situation has brought Spot;s character out. He has really developed through it, and his relationship with you is becoming obviously clear. You have picked a winner here and have a great future for the pair of you.
The footage from the bike was gorgeous, mud and all. And I always appreciate Jock's take on camera angles. How else would I know what your boots look like?
The countryside looks so lovely, particularly with all the lovely healthy lambs all around. Jock is an adorable little shepherd. Take care.
You are a big tease, but also very funny. I'm so glad for you, the other farmers and the sheep & lambs that the weather is finally coming right ♥️💙🩵🩵🩷
What a great day . The boys are certainly enjoying getting out in the better weather. Angus will be happy when he does not have to wear so much clothing and wellies to slow him down. Jock is having the time of his life. ❤️❤️
That ewe heard you rescue sheep from mountains and she was like come get me off these rocks hahaha
Jock is going to be a wonderful help as he grows up. This is heartwarming to watch. Aye Cammy I’d love to bare arms but it’s still far too cold in Fife for those shenanigans. 😂 Another great lambing video! 😊
Love your boys 😍 They are incredibly cute.
Jock stealing the juice and leaving Angus on the floor made me laugh out loud.
Seeing you chasing that sheep over the rocks just made this video that bit better 😂😂😂❤
I've been a member for the last few videos and it's been a delight. I highly recommend supporting Cammy that way of you can.
I wish youtube had a better algorithm for agri-tainment
How do become a member? Keep asking but nobody tells me 😢
@@etiennemetivier Look for the subscribe button next to where it says "The Sheep Game". You should see a Join button next to it. Go ahead and click that to look over the information regarding the monthly subscription
Completely concur!

DON'T FORGET You can run this all day in the background on a laptop or PC, with the sound off and on Loop (right click during the video, not the adverts and Loop is at the top). The more adverts seen, the more money gets from his sponsors. It costs us nothing but helps a lot.
Love watching your videos. Jock cam is so cute. Sad for the losses but love the wins. Sending love and positive vibes from Northern Ontario, Canada ❤ 🙏🇨🇦
That sheep gave you the runaround 😂 Jock is living the dream!
The right to bare arms 😊😅😅😅😅 that tickled me 😂 loving the jokes on the channel 😊
I love how your boys get to be real farm boys, in with the animals, falling over in the sh#%, riding in the feed out trailer, all stuff we did as kids here in NZ, but with the increased OSH laws it gets harder and harder. Love it!
Joc and Angus are growing up with the besr memories of their stone cold mad Daddy chasing them, putting them in the snacker and tipping sheep!!!! PRICELESS
Sending 🐑 love to everyone reading this, from Baton Rouge, Louisiana!! 💙💙
And from Little Rock ❤
have been procrastinating my essay on Baton Rouge to watch this video- your comment was calling me out 😭🤣
@@evie9239 😂🤣 I guess you know who to ask if you need any help 😁
I love your videos, because they show the real side of farming whether it is sheep or cows or goats life still happens, some of it hilarious and some very sad, like when you loose poor little lambies, or when you have to sell them, your in this for making a living for your family, because its what you love to do, and you really have to love it, because there are hardships involved, like when you have a bad lambing season, or when your animals become sick or are attacked by predators, including dogs. Its a gamble, and if you didn't love being a shepard you wouldnt be one. My dad was a farmer, I helped him because I was the only one who would help him, I have helped deliver goats, and bottle fed goats, cows, we also raised rabbits and chickens, we had dogs for hunting, and milked the animals that needed milking, aand made our own butter, we also raised our own vegetables and canned them for the winter. my dad also had a job outside of the farm, there has to be a love for it, my dad loved it. So did i, my mother and sister never helped, they both hated farm life, except for the gardening, and canning, i did it all with my Dad, and still helped can in the fall. My sister and mom worked in the garden also but they hated everything else about farming. My point is dont let those people who put you down, make you upset or mad, they aren't worth your time, keep doing what your doing and live your life the way you choose. Much love to you and your wife and children your raising your children to love farming and they will thank you in the end. I thank my Daddy for raising me up to love farming, and the animals especially loving the animals that we kept for our consumption, my dad raised these animals with love, you will find that if you treat your animals with love, the meat taste so much better, because they are loved they arent stressed, they know you will feed them, and take care of them, I realize that your farming is much more on scope of a large herd, and you cant treat the animals with as much love, but you know, they still a taken very good care of.
Any town in Scotland with the name Kil..in front of it means Saint or Cell of, so Cammy's next town of Kilmarnock is linked to St Marnock and you have Kilbarchan, Kilbride etc
Yay! Not demonetized! Kilmarnock is the town I use do you check and see how the weather is where you are. I don't get to see magpies where I am so it was great to see one. Your videos are such a joy to watch, Cammy. Thanks!
Oh I love how lamby follows Jock! Angus is growing so fast. Oh Cammy soon you’ll be having two strapping lads out in the fields with you. ❤❤
I was adjusting the video quality, and couldn't see it clearly, 'til I realized I was looking through your dirty windshield! ☺
Glad to see you feeling better about days. Sending more good vibes for many more good days 🥰 Babes are so cute helping out ❤
loving these daily blogs Cammy, thanks for showing the tough side along with the cuteness of the new lambs! glad weather's perked up a bit, was up at dalscone tues, got donkey cuddles in 😄😄
Happy happy happy. 😄 Love watching the family. Jock cam is fantastic & Angus is coming along well. I love how you bring them along with you. So pleased the weather has turned around. 👏🐑🤩
I’m from South Africa, absolutely love watching your videos 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Ah, the mud! The ruts in the fields. Hard to work in wet conditions. Stay strong. Thanks for sharing your sheep story.
You’re right about considering your management strategies as to how you can change your flock structure to best address conditions, both grass and weather.
Strip grazing the singles is always a good way to limit their intake once you’ve scanned, here in NZ we do that during winter but usually on winter feed like swedes for example, but grass would work in your application so they get a good fresh bite everyday, but not enough to create huge lambs that give lambing problems during spring
Just a little idea to think about. Love the vids.
A little late, but a Very HAPPY BIRTHDAY. When i watch your channel, i am always cheering you on. The way you care you your herd, your wee lambs too, is so impressive.
The way you keep such a positive attitude is admirable.
Excellent video Cammy!! I laughed so hard at you and Spot going round and round the bush,and rocks...and the Jock cam!! Good stuff! Thank You for brightening my day!!
Thanks! Beautiful operation. I think I will drop my subscription and just pay the channels directly ♥️♥️🐑
Hi from Victoria, Australia. Newly subbed to you. Headed over from Sandi’s channel. Enjoying seeing all you do.
Great video! Jock is such a great sheepman. Glad your weather has improved!❤❤❤
I love seeing all the dogs work together.
BUY MERCH PLS. I received my new lambing squad t-shirt on Tuesday. Great service, great quality and super fast shipping! (From the time of payment to delivery was only 6 days - this was to the US. ) 10 dry days in a row! Woohoo!! ❤ Nothing is cuter than a wee man and a wee lamb. I love Jock's use of a candy bar as a weapon. Lol.
A boy Cammy another good video 👍.
Jock Cam was very good today, he's a funny little boy.
Delighted to see you had an easy day. You needed it after all those tough days since lambing started.
How much better it is when the weather is nice great videos hopefully you will get monetised on this one Kev.
We love The Sheep Game ❤️🐑❤️
Bloody good show sir bloody good show 🎉🎉
omg you guys are amazing fun parents 🥰
A beautiful part of the country. We lived in Strathaven for a few years before moving to Lincolnshire. We have just about finished lambing now, 1540 ewes lambed outside. Most went well I have had 46 cades though.
When you start shearing can you start with Jock, poor lad don't have to suffer a man bun then 😂😂
4am in New Zealand. Morning Cammie. 🇳🇿. ‘You know arv got a bad ankle, you’ve been watching the Sheep Game. 🤣😂🤣 Singing, keep ya day job, or only when 🍻🤣😂🤣 Only a townie would ask why you are lambing outside. The absolute norm in New Zealand, the weather is not in your control. The weather is also changing, so very unpredictable.
6pm in South Africa!
5.30pm uk
Your kids are having a rich experiential life!🦌💌❤️🐑
I just love the pics at the end. I pause every one. 😍
Jock is trying to feed the sheep - by the handfuls😂😜. So cute🥰. You do say jokes at the right time talking with that sheep.🤣. Hope she will adopt this baby. Oh that’s too bad., she didn’t like the baby. Jock if trying to run and he’s laughing so hard and is such a cutey.🥰. Jock has a lamb and doesn’t want you to take it🤣😜. Oh,,Angus fell, but he’s not crying. All those
Lovely curls that jock has. He’s helping mommie now. What a neat looking sky. Love it when you have the family working with you as the kids are so cute and fun. Imagine when you have three, even tho it’s a girl she will just as much a farmer as you all are. Nice and exciting to see that as well.❤️🥰👍
So glad to see you all and the baby lambs out in the sun! 🧡
Seen you had a mention in parliament cammy keep the pressure on and things have to change
Good to know. I finally went ad free. Its great!
Jocky had a little lamb 🎶. Just so precious. Love the video Cammy. Keep up the good work.
Love your videos. I look forward to yours. Keep up the good fight. You're showing real life.
Watching you reminded me of the song "Round and Round the Garden". hahaha 🙂😋🤣🥰
I could hear Lizzys eye roll for the bare arms joke 😂😂😂
Farming is all about learning. Really enjoy watching. From Queensland Australia we are shorthorn cattle breeders
The tartan top nice there Cammy. The ewe was working to have you to take a tackle 🤣🤣.
I hope you get the laundry done this week. I could smell that over here! Excellent video. Love the boys and Lizzy.
Love Jock such a sweet boy with his Lammy.❤️
You deserve a good day with lots of sunshine ☀️
It’s so sweet how Jock loves his lambies.
You made me travel back to the 70s. I love that song
When you pan across the field full of mamas and babies it looks like heaven!
UA-cam has demonetized you, but they still stuck 8 ads into this vlog……🤨🤨🤨Make that 10 ads!!!
What a charming man you are.Avoided your vlogs as couldn’t understand your accent,how ever I have persevered,and really enjoy them.(still can’t understand all of it but I’m getting better!!!)
Love the Suffolk ewe. Used to keep a few when I lived in Wales. Must admit the Texel gives the best meat lovely sheep from a butchers point of view. Gives a good price. But they are very sensitive to weather conditions not he easiest to keep . They prefer sea air. Love watching you guys I miss lambing and working with dogs. This makes me wish I was young again. So nice to see the younger generation working with so much respect. Sadly rare these days.
JUST LOVE JOCK. He is so cheeky and FUN ❤❤❤❤. I cannot wait for Angus to get older. Double the fun. ❤❤❤
Love me some Jock cam! Your boys are absolutely gorgeous! So happy for y'all that the weather broke. Best wishes
Oh, and I’ve really enjoyed the pictures at the end of your vlogs. Very nice🥰👍
Sorry Cammy, i was only thinking yesterday you hadn't mentioned Mr Fox, thought it had calmed down.
Jock is hilarious, he's such a well rounded kid. He's going to look back and say he's had an awesome childhood, it's sad most kids don't get to experience the farm life and the outdoors.
Very cute how Jock makes friends with the lambs. They seem to really like him and there maybe a future sheep farmer in him.... A sheep and lamb Whisperer.. Angus too ❤
I had a Blackie ewe do exactly the same other day running ontop of an old tumble down what was a house maybe 250 years ago so I could not catch it
I indeed just have a wee look on google maps....it's so very lovely there. I'd love to see Scotland someday, but I doubt that will ever happen. :( But it's still beautiful to get to see through your channel, Cammy, so thank you for this opportunity. I have to say, little Jock is FEARLESS!!! lol Such a delight to watch him. My youngest grandchild is Pierce. Pierce Wilder, to be exact. his middle name is WIlder-named after my daughter's, and mine too, fav character from Little House on the Prairie, Almonzo Wilder. Pierce is 2.4 years old. He loves animals too but here in this area of New Jersey, he doesn't get to see many farm animals. He loves it when we go to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, to Amish Country. He loves all the little petting zoos and seeing all the horses and buggies about. 💚
I think little Angus is just itching to get to run about more with his big brother Jock! So sweet, they are.💚💚
Again, I'm so happy the weather has finally gotten better there for all you sheep farmers. Blessings from the USA! ❤🤍💙
I appreciate your polite explanation about why you don’t intend to build a building. You could have totally ignored the subject, but your oblique references to how beautiful outdoor is sent the clear message.
It’s obviously your life, your business, and your money. I do want to say as a follow up, that’s it’s probably not wise to make hopeful comments about how beautiful the weather will be in the future. People can and do go broke doing making such general predictions. My prediction is that no one knows what the elements are going to hold for the future. Better to be on the safe side, say I (and others, I presume).
No matter, I wish you, your family, and your growing business the very best.
