I really enjoy your videos! I used to have just 3 or 4 sheep and the lambs are real cute! You mentioned that Fendt tractor being a nice tractor. Well I have worked at a farm equipment dealership all my working years and yes a cab would be nice but Your feather ahead with your John Deere. The Fendts are awful winter starters, resale value really sucks and unreal over priced and parts are crazy expensive. No I did not work for a John Deere dealer, just being honest is all! Sure loved that You mentioned that You went to Bible study, way to go!!👍🙏 Keep up the good work!
Hey Man, I have been enjoying your content. I was hoping if you can make a video on how one can start lamb farm as a beginner. I love animals and loves to be around them but I am new to Alberta, Canada and have no idea how to start. 😊
Great content. Enjoyed it very much. I also watch two other Canadian sheep UA-camrs. Sandi Brock has over a million viewers. She use to have four lambing groups a year but has now reduced to three. She uses cedars and an injection to facilitate the breeding of the off season ewes. Her lambing average is well over 2. Triplets are common and each lambing group she has a few ewes that have 4 or five lambs. Her sheep never go outside. She has cameras in her lambing area and keeps track if there are any issues. She has a nanny machine and any lambs over 2 are taken from mother and placed with the milk machine. There will be 3 nipples and there will be 30 or 40 lambs in the milk machine area. The other Canadian UA-camr I watch is Ewetopia. Older husband wife team have an operation similar to yours. If any of their ewes have 3 lambs, they mark all three lambs and they bottle feed all three while leaving them with mother. Look forward to new content. You really give it your all.
16:33 what temp? I’m in New Brunswick. I don’t think we get near as cold as most of Alberta. But this is the first time I’ve seen someone do a mostly outdoor system like yours so I’m trying to get a fair temp comparison! Thanks ☺️
Probably around -20. We don't get the humidity like you guys though. We have days of -30 or worse especially with the wind. Lambs can take cold, but they can not take wind. Good wind fence and shelter is key
Stupid uneducated comment about the baler. Baling two different types of forage one which is light and big stems the other which is dense and small stems which do you is going to be heavier? I have a 469 silage special jd and it will put out 2200 lb bales at 45% moisture all day
Great information Keep posting as your channel is very entertaining
Happy birthday!! 🎉🎉
Thank you so much for sharing, very happy for you, happy Birthday
Gotta love a farmer that can operate a tractor as well as you do. Well done my friend.
Also those feed bunks look awesome, did you buy or build them?
Happy birthday RJ! 🎂🎁🎉 you always have great content and you know your sheep really well, there’s nothing like watching a new life being born!

Who cares keep fan girling. This guy runs an efficient operation. Sandy brocks whole operation is funded by her rich grain farming husband.
Enjoying your content bro! Post more!!!!😂
Hey thanks!
Yes post more! I love your sheep videos 😊
Cool to hear all that detail about raising sheep, RJ! And you’ve wrecked me for life concerning JD round balers😢.
There might be a blue company baler in that yard soon..... Who knows
