I have never watched the clipping or shearing of sheep, it was so relaxing...for me, but I hope your back is ok! Beautiful sheep, music and video! Thank you for de-stressing me today for 13 minutes!! 🥰🤗
What a lovely and fascinating breed! That ewe wasn't ready to leave when James was finished. She must've really enjoyed her spa treatment! Also, three cheers for the lady with the tea and biscuits!
Just so you feel better about your 4 mins - yesterday we had to shear a rescued wool breed sheep when we ordinarily run Dorper hair sheep who shed. We had old school hand clippers and a pair of scissors and it took 2 hours :P
James may have a birth certificate that says he's 52 year old, but he's more fit then many many 25 year old guys will ever be. Good on you James, hope your enjoying life as much as we enjoy watching you do your magic.
Those valais give gorgeous wool! James has a lovely, calm nature. I'm not surprised the sheep are so docile with him. As for somebody never shearing valais before, James did an excellent job.
Love watching you shear. Glad James bounces back quickly and was there to help today. It amazes me how quickly, yet how gentle you two are with the sheep. I love the comraderie too. That makes a job go much quicker doesn't it? Good work all!
I'm a knitter and love learning about the wool properties of the different sheep breeds, so I will have to take your word on the heiniger shearers, haha! Great video!
Love seeing those Valais, & James is an absolute pleasure to watch shearing. Shearing Valais may be tough but I bet James is glad they're calmer than those big rams.
I fell in love with these sheep the moment I saw them. I had no idea they were so expensive. It always makes me laugh when I see a sheep being shorn. They don't move a muscle. No resentance or complaining whatsoever. I could never eat these beautiful animals. They remind me of children. I enjoyed your video and could listen to a Scotman talk all day. Music to my ears.
Who shears their faces for you, always the hardest part of a Valais to shear, getting the wool between the ear and the horn not easy. Well done shearing those horrors.
Great video. I find your shearing to be calming. The music you used was beautiful as well. Thank you for sharing and it warmed my heart when you called James your hero! Such a kind soul, you are!!! 🥰🐏
Wonderful video, really enjoyed it. I was really shocked at how sturdy those sheep are under that beautiful coat of theirs. Love their horns. I think Unicorns may be their cousins! Lol.
Sooooooooooo cute! I love those ADORABLE lambs!! I shear 10 of my own tiny flock and since I started following your videos I've cut my shearing time by over 60% and getting more efficient every time. I ALWAYS appreciate when you talk about your equipment and setup...always so interesting. GREAT video! Cheers!
I’m not sure why I love watching you shear sheep so much. I like your voice, the sheep are cute and the music is lovely . But here I am. Fascinated by it. It’s so calming and I love all your videos.
It always amazes me how still the sheep stay while they're getting sheared. They must really enjoy it! Of course, I enjoy a good haircut myself, so it makes sense😁
Beautiful sheep. You didn't need to speed up the shearing. It is an interesting process to watch. How's your Lizzy doing? I've had 4 babies myself and so sympathize with the late pregnancy struggles. Best wishes to the three of you!
You can adjust the speed of the video yourself for every video on youtube, did you know that? Somewhere in the settings / options in the right corner on the top of the video. You can speed it up or slow it down.
My friend has a group of stuffed sheep in her living room, life sized. They're Valios Blacknose and I never knew it until I watched this video. At first when you showed us the animals, I was sure that they were stuffed. Then one moved!
Last sheep Jim had didn't want to leave him, looks like she like the way he held her 😂 Very interesting your channel is and with all the beautiful scenery how could I not become a fan!
Really enjoyed seeing "The World's Cutest Sheep" again. I didn't think that watching shearing would be that interesting but it is. The sheep are funny but adorable looking without their wool. Thanks Cammy for another interesting video.
That was a wonderful video. Those sheep are really something. Can’t help but love those cute faces. Something very lovely about sheep in general. Thank you for taking us with you. Shearing sheep is definitely a big job. ❤️❤️❤️
So enjoy your videos. Learning a lot about sheep and farming from you. I’m a GP in a rural area, so not a farmer but many of my patients are. Mostly cattle around here. Thanks for providing entertaining, educational videos. They’ve been a big help to me in this stressful time as a healthcare worker. Best wishes to you, Lizzie, and your wee one.
I really enjoy the care and attention to detail you show with the sheep you shear. I see some videos and they are so rough and move so fast. I appreciate your work
James looks like it takes no effort to shear, he is very meticulous and I cannot believe that was his first time with the black faced sheep. Thanks Camie for all your great videos 👍👏👏😉
Quality video again Cammie. Really enjoyed. Interested to hear about the show-sheep you were off to next, would be really interested to see how your approach changes to shearing those! Also took note of the ferrule/screwdriver trick: I'm trying to repair an old Lister handpiece (pin drive) and am having an issue removing it's ferrule. I'll be giving your technique a try and see if it frees it! Cheers, Chris
Thanks Chris. We use mole grips (proper name may be adjustable pliers?) for very tight ones and i’ve even seen me trapping them in a vice and putting my weight on the handpiece to slacken them. 👍
This was a really great video! I've been watching your videos from the oldest to new and this one really stands out. :) I also like that there was only one hand-to-lens motion, don't care for that.
Love seeing that breed of sheep! Beautiful. Really enjoying the shearing videos Cammy. Thank you as always! One of you biggest fans from the USA 🇺🇸! 😊🐑💙
Lovely and informative video, Cami, thank you! Anyone dedicating their lives to such a gentle species is testimony to your temperment. P.S. Have you ever considered putting a rubber matt under the area when your sheep are on the floor on their backs?
Hey Cammy, THANK YOU, for showing my FAVOURITE sheep! We apparently now have one black nose Breeder here in Australia. Maybe he also learned about them from you! Anyway, after hearing what you said about how tricky they are to shear, I wonder how the new owner will get on at shearing time, OK I hope! IF I was so blessed to have these sheep, I’d get you and James to come and shear for me! Of course Lizzy and James’ wife could also come. Aaah, to have dreams realised… 🤣
I curious about the quality of the wool? I’m a knitter and fiber quality of different breeds fascinates me. It’s nice to see their little faces when you’re done.
Yes they are so beautiful and their wool is lovely. How calm and what great dispositions the have. Loved that the one James was shearing was so relaxed from her pampering she did not even want to get off the table it looked like lol! You guys are awesome :)
Two questions… Are you able to charge more for a sheep that requires more time? And does James know anything about his genealogy? He has a fascinating face. And a adorable gentle nature. How are your Jacob x babies doing? They’re so cute! Best to you all.
Gee I sure like this trip I love being with you and your sheep. I learn so much. Watching your videos twice . I just can't take all in at one showing. I want to be with you in all you do. Granny90 USA.
😲 Beautiful handpiece!! It's always nice to have a new tool. Nobody likes to shear Southdown babydoll sheep either. My shearer said he tried to send his son because he didn't want to do it. 😂🤣😂 Those sheep are adorable!! Thanks for the video and keep up the good work.
For those of us sheep fans who have only seen videos of shearing - but never in person - the equipment used is kind of mysterious. You’ve explained or demonstrated many times how the approach chute sets the animals up to wait until it’s each one’s turn, and how the newly naked sheep leave the platform. But the mysterious part is the rest of the equipment! What sort of blades do you prefer? Do you use the same setup for each breed, or are there differences? I figured out the pull cord is the safe way to start or stop the cutting part, but the suspended motor thing and the jointed tubes has baffled me for some time. Even looking at the Heiniger on line catalog, I’m still not sure how all the parts work together. Always something new to learn!
Lovely video 👍 Really enjoyed watching the shearing. Adorable sheep too! Hope things are going well with your own wee lamb! Best of luck with the baby’s arrival.
Commie, thanks for filming the Valais Blacknose sherp shearing. It's very calming to watch. One question: Where did you get your shoes? They look extremely comfortable.
Are there many similarities between the techniques you are using on the valley black nose, and the techniques you would use on merinos. Also could you do a video on comb and cutter selection for different breeds/ conditions.
I have never watched the clipping or shearing of sheep, it was so relaxing...for me, but I hope your back is ok! Beautiful sheep, music and video! Thank you for de-stressing me today for 13 minutes!! 🥰🤗
So nice of you to praise James the way you did! Watching him shearing is fascinating.
What a lovely and fascinating breed! That ewe wasn't ready to leave when James was finished. She must've really enjoyed her spa treatment! Also, three cheers for the lady with the tea and biscuits!
I love the Valais Blacknose sheep. They're so cute. Especially the lambs.
Just so you feel better about your 4 mins - yesterday we had to shear a rescued wool breed sheep when we ordinarily run Dorper hair sheep who shed. We had old school hand clippers and a pair of scissors and it took 2 hours :P
I've got dorpers as well as handshears....lol.
I'd happily watch 4 minutes of you shearing the good looking sheep at regular speed. Not every day is it...👍👍
Thanks Clifford!
@@TheSheepGame and that video was 13 minutes . Passed by easily, especially with a 🍺 in hand. Oooh and on a school night too.👍👍
I know! 4 minutes! I thought he was going to say 40 minutes, or even 4 hours! I cant believe he can shear a sheep in 4 minutes!! Lol amazing!
James may have a birth certificate that says he's 52 year old, but he's more fit then many many 25 year old guys will ever be.
Good on you James, hope your enjoying life as much as we enjoy watching you do your magic.
Thanks for that 🥰
wait, what? i thought that hes my age. 30-35. O_o
@@jezusova me or James? 😅. I’m 31 😃

I love these sheep! I was so excited to see them shave so I could finally see their eyes and I still could barely find them! ❤️
Great video. I find your shearing to be calming. The music you used was beautiful as well. Thank you for sharing and it warmed my heart when you called James your hero! Such a kind soul, you are!!! 🥰🐏
You are my very favorite unsheared sheep. These little Valais are SO CUTE.
Wonderful video, really enjoyed it. I was really shocked at how sturdy those sheep are under that beautiful coat of theirs. Love their horns. I think Unicorns may be their cousins! Lol.
What a great friend to come and help out. Lots of work.🇨🇦
Can we see the head being sheared ? Watching the skill involved with shearing, no matter which part of the sheep, is great to watch.
You blend in very well with your curly hair and dark beard. You’re all so cute. The sheep look so naked after sheering. 😁
Sooooooooooo cute! I love those ADORABLE lambs!! I shear 10 of my own tiny flock and since I started following your videos I've cut my shearing time by over 60% and getting more efficient every time.

I can't believe how much longer it takes to shear these type of sheep. My back is aching for you! Thanks for another cool video!
It always amazes me how still the sheep stay while they're getting sheared. They must really enjoy it! Of course, I enjoy a good haircut myself, so it makes sense😁

Looks at those freshly peeled babies 😍 it's amazing how clean the wool looks as you're shearing.
Last sheep Jim had didn't want to leave him, looks like she like the way he held her 😂
Very interesting your channel is and with all the beautiful scenery how could I not become a fan!
Thanks, glad you enjoy the vlogs
‘Lady bits’. Still chuckling……. Love it Cammie.
I have to say you are right, they are right! They are the cutest sheep. I love watching you and James make it look almost effortless!
Really enjoyed seeing "The World's Cutest Sheep" again. I didn't think that watching shearing would be that interesting but it is. The sheep are funny but adorable looking without their wool. Thanks Cammy for another interesting video.

This is the first time I’ve seen sheep shearing, so obviously I’m amazed at the way they let you handle them!

Oh my gosh those sheep are so cute especially before they are sheared!!
This sheep 🐑 I have seen in Wallis (German speaking of Valais). They are so sweet to watch.
Valais are my fav breed. Loved seeing Katie shear one, when she came to visit you. Awesome vid Cammy! Kim in New Zealand 🇳🇿
Great video Cammy it's a pleasure to see two great Shearer's at work !!👌👍
These are the cutest sheep! Adorable!
I've got a weak spot for hooved animals with roman noses. Adorable.
Another great video cheers Cammy
Cutest sheep ever!
We spinners would like a close-up view of the fleece. It looks simply divine!
Those are beautiful sheep. Interesting markings for sure.
Hiya James. I saw Cambert push you off the stand then blame it on the ram. Watch your back.
You guys are poetry in motion.
I LOVE THESE SHEEP!! They are adorable. Anyway, well done! Loved this video
This was a really great video! I've been watching your videos from the oldest to new and this one really stands out. :) I also like that there was only one hand-to-lens motion, don't care for that.

And I was just looking for a shearing video of these sheep yesterday !

Thanks Rebecca! I’m very lucky!
I curious about the quality of the wool? I’m a knitter and fiber quality of different breeds fascinates me. It’s nice to see their little faces when you’re done.
Wow your awake late. Thank you for your dedication. Lovin the vids from Michigan USA
Thanks Cheryl!
I like watching this channel! Ive seen other people shear sheep and they have knicks all over them. they dont do that!! these guys are great
Good job, Cammy!
I figured it took you so long to shear’um because you could get over how cute they are😀
Yes they are so beautiful and their wool is lovely. How calm and what great dispositions the have. Loved that the one James was shearing was so relaxed from her pampering she did not even want to get off the table it looked like lol! You guys are awesome :)
Another good video cammy
U both did well
Love your work, Cammy!
It's definitely the cutest breed of sheep!!!
Two questions… Are you able to charge more for a sheep that requires more time? And does James know anything about his genealogy? He has a fascinating face. And a adorable gentle nature. How are your Jacob x babies doing? They’re so cute! Best to you all.
Enjoyed
Excellent video such thick wool on those very handsome sheep.
Gee I sure like this trip I love being with you and your sheep. I learn so much. Watching your videos twice . I just can't take all in at one showing. I want to be with you in all you do. Granny90 USA.

nice music while sheering!🦌👍❤️🐑
Wow. Shearing sheep must give you great muscles.
Those sheep are cute! Yeah, I know stupid comment, but they are! They'd make a great stuffed toy...

Great video Cammy. New watching your videos. Hello from Yorkshire
I said it before James and your self are a great team another great video Cammy I hope Liz is goin well 👍
Lovely video 👍 Really enjoyed watching the shearing. Adorable sheep too! Hope things are going well with your own wee lamb! Best of luck with the baby’s arrival.
Cammy, i think you have fewer second cuts than James does.... nicely done!
These sheep fascinate me. Looks like they have high fashion black boots on when they’re cleaned up.
Such cute sheep....great idea doing theirs heads the day b4.....my back hurts watching you....your very good at your hard job
I know it’s the way you position them but They look cuddly and so relaxed
I could seriously watch James and you shear for hours. Thanx!
They’re cute and realllllllly wooly! Love the horns!
Can’t stop watching this videos 🎈Great channel, new subscriber 👍
Beautiful sheep!!
it is so interesting to watch and learn. you work incredibly hard at this art
Commie, thanks for filming the Valais Blacknose sherp shearing. It's very calming to watch. One question: Where did you get your shoes? They look extremely comfortable.
I hope your own Valais crosses will make another appearance. They're powerful cute.
😁 they will!
Your videos never disappoint ❤
Oh I love these cuties! (And I did mean the sheep 😂) Best of luck to Lizzie and yourself can’t be long now 🥳
Enjoyable video as always. 🇨🇮🙋♀️
Love your channel. But I love Scotland. Keep going you r doing great. 🌻🐑🐑🐏
Thanks!
Is their wool very valuable Cammie? They are very beautiful sheep. Thank you for sharing.
It used to be worth a lot to spinners but not so much now. It will still be worth more than most of the sheep i shear!👍
They are so cute. My favs.
Great video! Thank you for sharing! Stay safe and healthy:-)
20 seconds into the video I realise….I NEED A SHEEP, OR TWO…! 🙏❤️😉😂
They are such cute sheep!!!😍
Newly suscribed! Love these cuties! You need your hair sheered as well! 😍
Some hero's wear wool capes.

But ..they are the cutest !🥺🤩😍
