  • My lambs are still rather skittish around me even after being here for over three months. I spend some quality time with them to help ease their stress with me while I provide a homestead update.

    We just started building our homestead and want to raise sheep (amongst other animals), so it’s good seeing how your sheep are adjusting. Looking forward to more of your videos! Take care!

    The sheep seem to like Little Buddy.

    Hi Dan and Little Buddy, Very strange Summer in VT.
    The Heat was so extreme that my Cucumbers are growing into balls 😨.
    I picked them all off now that the weather is 80° and under . They are growing straight again !
    Sorry your Lambs are skitty still. Try having Little Buddy scratch them with a stick. He is shorter and not so intimidating 😊.
    Nice too see you both 🐦.
    JO JO IN VT 😆💕

    Great seeing a video of you at home with your Critters. Little buddy is sure getting big and the Sheep don't seem to mind him. Keep the updates coming :-)

    Animal trust is build over consistant, predictable actions, tone of voice, respect & listening. & or course... time!!!

    Thanks for the update. Did you have bees last year? I was wondering if your property is near napweed?

    Do you process your sheep yourself? I’ve been thinking about getting sheep 🐑. Yet kind of nervous about it.

    • @TheGrassfedHomestead
      @TheGrassfedHomestead  Před 2 lety +3

      I do. I have a few videos about it that show the process. Give them a try!

    I have had store bought lamb before and the taste differs from store to store. When you cull your sheep does it taste better? or does it have that strong lamby flavor?
