Thanks for this slice of farm life. I am hoping to retire to South America where I want to grow my own food and raise some animals. It's good to know some of the things I can expect.
Well done lad, keep up the good work! Sadly deadstock is all part of keeping livestock, all we can do is make sure we do everything we can to keep them to a minimum; keep plodding on!
Enjoyed your video...just got 10 sheep...one baby came surprise!! Now the herd is all female..time to find a male. But I see ticks..what do ya do for ticks?
Maybe this will help get us a little more respect for what we do.
Not that we would even consider another way of life but often I do get as some silly and down right disrespectful questions/comments by my "city slicker" children's friends and neighbors when I go down to visit. They just can understand why I would grieve over the loss of a pig that I had bottle raised, wanted to go everywhere I went & had been a show winning sweet pet for many years.
yeah... great vid mate... know exactly what the useless nowts are all about... you're right... the best ones have a habit of dying whist the worst, skinniest wastes of existance tend to live...
So sorry you lost the lot, being a sheep farmer in UK myself i have been there, at least you tried, thankfully you had a lovely set the next day, this is certainly life in the raw , i know it can be difficult for those who don,t understand.
@animalliberation0961 so what your saying is, you would rather see them dead than to live a well cared for life in a pasture somewhere? That is the epitome of an oxymoron, or in your case just a moron.
@animalliberation0961 Do you know for a fact that these owners are negligent in some way? Clearly you have never been to a farm like the one I grew up on. Broaden your horizons actually visits some farms then get back to me. All you people that think all animals should be freed, even after centuries of domestication, are the real joke! They can't care for themselves as their wild counterparts can. The real crime would be to turn them loose to suffer and die a horrible death.
@animalliberation0961 Grow a fucking brain to think with, instead of using your ignorant bleeding heart. I love all animals, and I hate to see them die, but its Natural. Sometimes even humans can't give birth naturally due to a large baby, what is that this farmers fault too? I would be willing to bet you have never been to a real farm in your life. You are some pathetic whiner, who got scared when Mommy took you to the peting zoo when you were 3. I hate Fuckers like you.
@animalliberation0961 I would prefer to be alive and happy with MY ANIMALS! You are one sad and I'm betting lonely person. So sorry mommy didn't get you that pony you wanted when you were little, and now you hate any and all who do live happily with their pets. Ask the horse that lived to be 38 years old, if she would have rather only lived to 10-12 years old in the wild, or 38 years with her loving family. Grow up.
@animalliberation0961 and By the way, Im so happy my mommy did buy me the pony I wanted when I was a kid, it guarenteed I grew up appreciating life, love and happiness. I am no glad I am not like you, wishing death on animals, full of hate, and just waiting to die. Why wait............
may they rest in peace :)

@Oreocremerocks
You're okay with animal abuse, plain and simple.
And you can take your weak insults and shove them up your ass.
I hate bullshit, exploiters like you. You're no better than a common tapeworm.
Dismissed.

Would you prefer to be a living slave or dead and free? I know my answer.
Animals ARE NOT YOUR THINGS, TO DO WITH WHATEVER YOU PLEASE, and they have every bit as much right to their lives as you do yours.
