ABOUT ME
I’m 34 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.
Jock and Angus are living the best life, tearing about barefoot ❤
Cammys laughter is very contagious! Love it!
I just love your family and farm lifestyle. It is pure joy for me. I am looking for each and every vlog you are willing to share. The children are just delightful.
I would love to see Cammy do a promotional video to inspire young people to fill the vast need for shearers. For every sheep farming country. Most "kids" have never even heard of it. The cost for a startup shearing kit and training is ridiculously low compared to many other trades. The return on that investment is phenomenal, if they learn properly and build up the physical fitness to do it. We are really short shearers in North America, with farmers waiting many weeks to get a booking. Then if weather or something cancelled the date: more weeks wait.
Is cammy going to plowing 2020
A wee while ago I think Cammy did just that...I don't know how long ago...but I think it was this year sometime...he broke it all down...what I think he needs to do is to keep reminding the young folk of the opportunities that can be had😃🌠
@@ChristophersMum He has told us about the shearer life. Anyone who watches his channel is already aware of the shortage. I would like to see a campaign to promote shearing to a much wider audience, that has never even heard you can make a good living doing it. "Career Day" type promotion.
@gregedmand9939 I didn't know there was a big shortage tbh, but I thought (mostely from my verry limited experience with sheep) that not many young folks get into shearing. That it's a branch that's getting greyer so to speak. And the problem with the job is probably: its extremely physical work, the blackies don't look the biggest sheep and can be a handful, so get something like a Dorset, a Suffolk, Bleu de Maine, or Zwartbles, who can get a bit bigger and you get sheep escaping on you.
Now I'm going to have to watch that film 😂The kids have the best life on the farm. It's good to see them getting in to everything, including a plate of spaghetto 🙃
I love the way you and Lizzy interact with the kids.
Amazing wayching shear. Would love another slower talk through with the shears.
More Fed by Farmers podcasts as well...feeling very spolit.
All the productions are different in their own which, tells different aspects of the work.
Thank you!
There is something so soothing about watching shearing videos( except in a competition, then its all white knuckles)
Those kids are gorgeous! ❤️❤️❤️
Hello all. Good day to you all. Great to see the Wilson family once again.
Awww, the boys are doing good with chatting!

Hi Cammy we spoke at the royal Welsh you and your family are great really helps me get through these days have you found me a farm up there yet 😂😂.
Love the portable potty for Jock. I carried a potty seat in my back pack for about two years, my boys are 19 months apart, oldest got comfortable with a regular toilet and it was the youngest turn. My sister had one in the back of her Jeep too for her daughter.
I feel like this will be us for the next few years!
Kids are soooo cute and super messy LOL. Guess potty training is a family activity. Thanks for sharing! Love from the USA!
Yes they are!🤣
❤ the boys curlz

Jocks wee no with his english accent is the cutest thing ever 😂❤️
He's so like Lizzy!
Beautiful daughter ❤
Good to see ya!
Great video Cammy 👌
By the fleece on the ringlock as you drove in, the sheep have been rubbing a lot. In OZ that’d be a sure bet they were lousy 🤔
The kids are way too cute!!!!! Is that even legal? 😄 much love!
Bonnie is growing so fast. I had to potty train my son the same way. Until he decided to not ever wear pants 😂
luv your vids! that shearing is such hard work! Luv seeing Liz & your kids.🦌💌❤️🦷🤱👦👦
Lovely family there Cammy 😊old McDonald 😂😂😂😢😢❤
Hi Guys, you have 3 beautiful and amazing kids.
Take care and stay safe till next time.
❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
Amazing family
Another great video from Cammy and lizzy with the children as per normal the only bad thing it’s not long enough. Debbie Aberdeen Scotland xxxxx
Just a wee one to tide everybody over. Bigger ones on the way!
Bonnie has the same stork mark my oldest has! When he gets angry it still shows up he just turned 18
👍
Cammy, how do you learn to shear if you've not been brought up around farming?!? Love watching you and your family xxx
Tough one! Probably start by getting some sheep experience somewhere.
It's a food thing little kids can absorb food through their ears.
Choices in life
5 hour run sod that havent you heard of a flask of tea and a mars bar
😂 Robert take note!
🐨👍
Re: Sky's pups. I am New...watching all your Older videos.
I just watched 'SHEEPDOG HAVING PUPS' > 2 years ago > SKY had 4 pups.
> Can I find them.... in another video?
A little older and running around...all cute and playful, tearing up the house.
> Inquiring minds want to know.
Did you keep the female? Will I ever know what happened to them?
~ Thanks, Lori from Canada.
The pups were all sold 😊
Any chance of captions? I miss so much
We're working on it!
How much does it cost to sheep owner to have the sheep sheared and how much do they make for the sheep’s wool?
It costs about £1.65 per sheep to shear and these fleeces probably make £1 each back.
Do sheep like being sheered? As in the second or third time around.
I don't think they like the actual process but will love the feeling afterwards
Love the potty training method. Hey, whatever works.
So thats why you went down to the sheering world record then. 🤣 did you pick up any tips. What did Una do in 5 hours 😉🤣 Hell I think I'd struggle with 5 minutes far lass 5 hours. Enjoying the podcasts.
She’s destroy me on the boards! 😁
@@TheSheepGame I think she’d destroy many, just like she did the record.
Hello ❤❤
Why would you do a 5 hour run ? I don't think I have seen you mention how long your usual runs are. Do you let the farmers decide for you , or do do decide the run lengths?
usually 2-3 hours. I decide the run length but I had a meeting that day so we had to keep pushing on! my fault...
Hi Cammy & Lizzy. I think I have your wife's name right? HI to the kids How is your Daughter doing. She looks Beautiful. & The Boys getting big. This was so short. 🙁 I like your videos when they are longer.
my new one is much longer =D
And now we have the female world record for shearing.
🐑
Why do you wear special shoes to sheer?
They give us good grip and keep our feet free to move around easier 😁
I am not an expert but perhaps you could be on platform below the sheep so you do not have to bend so far over
I'm pretty sure he showed some kind of sling many videos back. It hangs from above and the shearer leans through it to take some of the pressure off his/her back.
First
Depends on the Hemisphere 😂
Childish 😂
