    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.

    Thanks for all the kind words so far folks. It’s been a tough one this year.
    We usually get a big boost on our ad revenue in April but this year our videos are being de-monetised so we have had to censor them to try and appease the YT gods.

    Cammy, raising awarennes of the mental health side is so important. Well done for being so candid. You really convey the sense of utter frustration at things beyond your control. Unless you have been there listening to the wind and rain lashing the window at 2am when you have ewe lambing outside, I dont think you can understand the feeling of dred you know what you will face 4hrs later.

    As I was growing up my family raised registered Angus cattle. To prevent the cows from calving throughout the year we set the breeding season so that they would calve from January to March. This is not that bad unless it froze or we got snow. There were several mornings where we kids would get up thinking we had school and come into the kitchen where my mom had placed a calf next to the stove to warm it up. You are doing really well keeping everything together.

    Your efforts to save the lambs is heroic. Bravo, many don't care as much as you do. Regarding the lambs in the sink. Sandi Brock puts the lambs in a lambing glove and then puts them in warm water. That way they retain the birth smells that mom may recognize, and the lambs get warm, but don't get soaking wet. It may be worth a try.

      youtube has got it so wrong. People who watch Cammy want to support him because he and the team are doing a fantastic job. We are not upset by blood and gore. Those who advertise because he has such a great following and they know that the audience is not offended because most are doing the same job. So why has UA-cam reduced his vlogs to a peep show, my theory is laziness on UA-cams part. They are too lazy to find people to advertise or so greedy that they want more money.

    Oooh, those screetches from Jock when he's fighting getting strapped in give me shivers from memories of my own girl back in the day doing the same thing... All the time! 😬 We had some pretty challenging times with her. Now she's a sophomore in High School so the challenge is getting her to spend time outside of her bedroom as she video chats with her friends! The years fly by...
    I hope things even out soon as far as weather and lambing issues - I wish I could wrap all of you in nice warm fleece and get some good, hearty stew in your stomachs between your field rounds. We're all sending you our best out here in your virtual community. Hang in there... And thanks to those sending in Sheep Game gallery photos - they're so fun, and I love to see where everyine is located!

    Hi Cammy, at home I use 3 crystalyx buckets at the front of the little trailer for wet lambs. Keeps them separate to stop mixing and you'd get more ewes in the trailer if you put a little hurdle in front too. It helps if you need to lift a few ewes rather than go back and to. Everyone is different though, but if it helps,thought I'd mention it.

    • @TheSheepGame

    Your giving your insight on how recording helps you was great to see. I believe that caring/loving people need outlets. Here’s hoping by being here allows you that outlet then share away. I’ve often said no one can beat me up better then I. It’s amazing how when we are down in the well of despair. We can only see what is around ourselves. When we get a moment to ourselves we can look up and see the light of the Sun/SON. God bless and keep you.
