- ITS SHEARING DAY FOR MY RAMS!!
I wait intentionally to shear my rams in the summer so they feel COOLER, and in turn, hopefully breed for me here in a few days!
The rams are so calm when we shear, which makes for a nice job for Charlie as they are also TWICE THE SIZE of our little ewes! (and they aren't that little).
Come along with us as Charlie shears, and I explain how he is doing it.

Charlie is a kind and conscientious shearer, it’s back breaking work and he did a lovely job on the boys and girls, thanks for letting us watch Sandy .....Jules
I appreciate the care and kindness Charlie shows, but what impresses me most, "No butt crack" thank you!!
I wouldn't mind seeing butt crack. He is a hottie!
Thought only plumbers showed butt crack🤣
You're very fortunate to find someone that works as hard as Clarissa. She is a gem.
Watching Charlie shear is always an awesome experience. Loved watching Prince William get sheared - he behaved so well! Billy is such a sweet thing, even as a ram rather than a lamb, and I love that it's more than just getting his dad's good temperament (and looks!). Any dictionary would have to have a picture of Billy next to the definition examples of Mama's boy. ♡♡♡♡
I love hearing you talking sweet talk to your sheep. They really are a blessed flock to have a mom like you!
I love how Billy got between you and the other boys in their before shot. Jealousy? And that the other boys wanted to get up and come to you.
I noticed that too, he just stood there like “uh uh, she’s mine!” 😂😂 Too cute!!!
There's nothing wrong with shearing, if done correctly. it's just like sending your dog or whatever to the parlor for a clip.
Is somebody saying there is something wrong with it? It is necessary--they are bred not to shed so it has to be done.
@@DCFelix67 The "Animal rights" activists that don't know what they are talking about whine and cry.
@@PhantomQueenOne I would think it would be the opposite cuz it has to be so hot for them.
@@louann4992 like I said, they don't know what they are talking about.
Freshly peeled sheep!!! I always feel like shearing looks like peeling potatoes while trying to keep the peel in as big of a piece as possible
kinda like orange rinds. either way, peeled potatoes & oranges smell better than peeled sheep 😜
😂
Yes! PEEL YOUR SHEEP!
I love shearing day!!! Shearing is such a great thing for any wooly critters. Sheep, llamas, etc. i love watching it ❤️
And I like knitting the wool. And wearing it so much nicer and warmer than synthetic
She talks too much
Leanne driver. You talk rubbish. Listen to her. You might learn something even if it's just how to be a nicer person!
How often do sheep need to be sheared?
Thank heaven for industrial fans, the only thing that keeps me from dropping over in the barn some days! Watching Charlie with shearing and the farriers that do our horses' hooves always makes my back ache.
I can hear the rams saying to Charlie---"Just watch the family jewels"
or " ' Um, mister human, this is so disconcerting. ' '' LOLOL
Glad to see the sheering video. The comfort of your flock is paramount. Hope this video doesn’t get blocked.
Awwww, Billy moved to block those lambs from getting any Mama love from you. I could see a look of relief on the faces of the rams getting rid of all that hot wool.
I remember shear day when I raised sheep. Hated every minute of it, as i sheared my own. Thanks for the nightmare reminder. As for the nicks, some breeds have more natural wrinkles and nick easier. They heal in a few days. Sandi, you might explain the wax buildup areas are sweat glands in their pits! You have a lot of interested watchers and you do a great job of explaining the sheep business.
Charlie needs his own CZcams channel. I can watch him sheer sheep ALLL day. It's incredibly satisfying. Promise he would have a ton of subscribers. Kind of like The Hood GP but sheering.
Kenzie scared me when she ran behind the car 😱😅, but her running around chasing the sheep looks like she is actually helping 😂
I hope you're still watching! Kenzie is actually more of a help these days. She still gives me heart attacks, because most of the time she looks more like she's chasing... I used to think she's a border, but her style is more like a kelpie or a koolie, and now I wonder if that's wat she is, which would explain her herding style.
I need to watch these old vids from the very beginning. I have only been watching for a couple months.
Charlie needs to have a channel of just shearing so fun and soothing to watch!!! ✂️🐑🐏🐑✂️
It's so satisfying watching Charlie shear the sheep, he does an amazing job!
Charlie is so gentle with the sheep, it is lovely to watch. Your older boys really needed a good haircut I'm sure the rams appreciate it. they don't look stressed at all.
Charlie is very talented - and ambi too! Very professional. And I bed the sheep feel so much cooler now.
Charlie does an amazing job and you take great care of your animals 👏💪
They must be loving being cooler after their haircuts 😺
Billy and the boys, quite a class act.
Charlie is so skilled. I've watched other folks do this and Charlie's movements are so easy and fluid, and he works in a fraction of the time of other shearer's. Huge stress reduction for the sheep.
It amazes me how the shears work so well, and obviously this fella is a Master.
I know that these shearers spend years in apprenticeships b/4 they're "off on their own"...at least, the reputable ones are 😉
The shearer’s work hard to keep their blades-olden days and combs-modern times sharp. They change the cutting combs throughout the day. The combs are sharpened every day on a grinder.
The blades are cut very sharp. I used to shear my own and have made a ewe into a buck by accident
I just LOVE it when Charlie comes!!!! They look so much more comfortable afterwards.
It is fascinating to watch Charlie work. It's like a dance he does with the sheep!!!
So, what happened with the "unicorn?" Is it part of a horn trying to grow? If it is, what do you do about it?? Leave it? Remove it??
Is the Billys' wool more difficult to shear? It looked like Charlie struggled a couple of times. It also didn't look like the Billys' were sheared as short as all the white ones. Probably just some type of illusion.
Thank you, Sandi, for showing this video. If CZcams does something to your video, is there some way for all of us to contact CZcams to complain about what they did to your video?? Thank you again for making this video!!! 😍🐑😘💞💞💞😍🐑😘
Mel Wallace
I think you are a very good observer. I also noted the black Billy's made Charlie pause a few times - and i do think its just a little harder to see contrast in a body of curly black hair. Or it just looked different after all the white hair, i don't know. But I do think there is an illusion involved here somehow. Don't know for sure of course.
@ Mel Wallace. I wondered if maybe they had more oil in their wool or a thicker wool. God Bless you all🙏🙏🌻🌻
I think it is an illusion. I assume the places the black fur grows has black skin underneath. As opposed to the white sheep you can see the pink tone to their skin underneath after they are sheared making it look shorter.
Did Billy just block the other 2 from getting some loving from Sandi ?.. 😆
Charlie is a wonderful looking guy. Loved how the Billy's didn't make any fuse at all.
Hi sandy! My self and 14 yo soon who is autistic look forward to seeing your videos....thank you for doing them....we both so appreciate you and all you do! Love and blessings to you and your family!!
And this and many others is why you keep doing it , Sandi.I am old and disabled now but watch you and think "what if....
I am glad your son gets enjoyment out of the video's
I’m so glad you are showing your shearing videos! I so enjoy watching them and anybody who says it’s cruel doesn’t understand it. Thank you for sharing it ❤️
Love shearing day. The sheep seem so happy to get that load off.
Seems Charlie has a sense of humour, anyway.
Wow, watching him at work is something to behold. He sure knows what he's doing, and gets it done!
I love how relaxed the sheep are when they are getting sheared.
The older Rams were more chill, like they knew it was going to feel better after. But they all looked like they were pretty chill. Awwwwww so much cooler.
I'm glad you showed this. I have seen a lot of shearers. Charlie is great. It is so satisfying to see them lose the wool and be cleaned up and cooler. Thanks!
I absolutely love love love watching them go from fluffy and dusty to bright shinny white! Or black in Williams case! They look so happy when it's all done too! Bet it feels soooo nice!
Hahaha re: "you look so weird" at like, 21:53, I feel that. My show lamb Beau, from 2016, looked so handsome and when we slick sheared for fair I felt like I was looking at a whole different lamb, I could have lost him in a crowd if he wasn't yelling at me. He was wrapped around my finger.
I wish i could groom my poodles this fast 😂🤣 hello from Australia! 🇦🇺
Alisha, I was thinking the same thing!
Awww poodles
Totally agree. I clip mine with scissors as no clippers I have will work with my black (turning blue poodle). Good work Charlie 💪!
Lolo about the same type hair!!!
I love the shering videos, the sheep seem so calm and got to love that air close to thier skin.
I love watching your sheep get a haircut (and Charlie's singing 😉)! They look so clean and comfy afterwords, it warms my heart 🥰
LOL, 2:15 Billy didn't want to share your attention and blocked off the other two from the fence.
Charlie is just awesome at what he does. I think clipping horses is hard enough! But shearing sheep - a whole new level! Thanks for sharing. Billy and co look fabulous!
I'm so glad you've kept showing everything, including shearing! I love seeing Charlie work, and that's not just because I'm a dog groomer. It's fascinating. :)
It's evident he is not hurting her in anyway. The sheep will be feeling amazing now. They even blat at you saying thanks you lifesavers! 🙌🏻🙌🏻💕🤗
Love how the black fleece stays black from butt to tip because of being housed in a barn. Envious hand-spinner in Idaho.
my back hurts watching this don’t know how he does it 😂
Well, he finished up around 2 ish. Perhaps he goes home and soaks in the Jacuzzi. :)
@ThatgirlEllie
most shearers end up with a stuffed back in the end, just like Bricklayers do !!
Like a lot of people whose jobs require bending, they will have back issues. Those issues can't be greatly reduced if people like Charlie practice self care (core strengthening, stretching, massage, Chiro) and if they do get injured to take the time and be diligent in physio and/or rehab.
ThatgirlEllie he’s a professional
Ps Till i hope so i would need a week of recovery 😂
This is the one part I don’t miss about raising sheep. The back breaking work of shearing. Even though I just was a helper cleaning up the wool or catching the next one. It is just back breaking. And stressful sometimes. Glad you have a great guy like Charlie to come and shear for you. Love your videos and the sheep’s.
I helped my best friend sheer her sheep and couldn't believe how greasy/oily they are under all that wool. I learned a lot...love how fresh/clean they look after being sheared! :)
YAY, Billy's first hair cut. It's funny I always think back to '60's hippie days. They go to boot camp and get shorn and come out fresh clean and ready for the next day. The nicks, scrapes are a part of life human or sheep. Ever nick your face shaving (male) or nick your legs (female) same difference. 98.9% of the time they do not bleed. A good shearer knows this and practices safely. Charlie is one of the best from what I have watched on your videos. Great video Sandi.
I love shearing day it is weirdly relaxing to watch. Sir William actually looked relaxed having it done. Billy on the other hand looked at you like mom how could you even let this happen, but boy is he even more handsome now. I think next time you should leave a little bit on top of his head because his curls are adorable lol
I'm glad you decided to post this.
Prince William looked Beautiful. ALL Looked Great after Haircuts and have to Feel a Lot Better. 👍
Unicorn!!!! LMAO!!!!!! Oh Sandi, you're so good to me!
Everyone is looking WONDERFUL!!! Good job Charlie!
Hi Sandi, I want to know how is this graphic? The sheep are getting shaved they show groomers on CZcams shaving dogs so whats the difference. I can see if they showed the animals being butcher but that not the case, and sometimes nicks happen same as dog grooming. So if they don't like it go somewhere else to watch videos and tell them to mind their on business. So what's next for Sheepishly Me keep up the good work and see you in the next video🤔😯✂🐑😊😘
My thought exactly!
Note: this is not my opinion. I believe Charlie is an amazing sheerer and he does amazing work.
There is an angry cadre of jerks who have a set way they feel a sheep should be sheered. Charlie does it a different way. Because of that, they always flag these videos as animal abuse.
It isn't.
On top of that you get the usual mass report from the angry vegans who think any sort of farming is abuse and yeah.
Animal cruelty groups think that using the pressure points to prevent kicking and wiggling is inhumane. They complained so much to CZcams that they demonatized her videos of shearing. In actuality, using the pressure points helps reduce wiggling and keeps the animal safer and reduces the nicks. Uneducated individuals sticking their opinions where they dont belong. You are correct, it is the same as grooming a dog! If sheep dont get sheared they can become very sick due to overheating and having to carry all the extra weight. Wool sweaters are heavier than cotton so think of sheep carrying that extra weight, not good!
Guess they have no idea that their Vet clinics use pressure points to restrain animals (when needed) as well. It's handy, it doesn't hurt them and having a controlled animals makes it safer for all involved.
A lot of animal activist people say it's "cruel" because they get a few nicks here and there.
CZcams was taking down any videos without warnings that contained it.
Thank you Sandi! Just love watching the vlogs. Charlie is awesome with the sheep and let him know we love watching him do a great job! You having a good days brings a smile to my heart. Your "bad days" make me want to show up to help out then have drinks and girl time.
Billy knows he looks good. You can tell he loves showing his new look off 🥰 bless him ❤
Hi Sandi!!! that is so wonderful! Shearing is so fun! I love it when they shake it off and walk away happy! Billie is such a CUTIE! Have a nice weekend! Love you Sandi
Charlie is amazing. He is one of the best. The sheep will be so much cooler. I bet its like wearing a wool coat in the summer. It's going to be hot here in Illinois tomorrow too. Heat indici of 100. Not looking forward to that. Thanks for showing this phase of care
It is so interesting.
Thank u sandy for letting us watch Charlie shave the Rams I really enjoy watching .thanks again Grace
those are some well fed Rams! Your Shearer is very gentle . He works methodically and does not get the animals worked up . Great Job!
Yay, shearing day!
So glad you decided to show sheep shearing again, it’s part and parcel of raising sheep, if they DON’T get sheared it can actually kill them. If anyone objects, they can go eff themselves. Peel your sheep! 😊
I love shear day and am so glad you posted this! The Billy's did really well, especially Prince William. He was so chill. You should make some winter hats with the black wool and wear some for winter and sell some with the meat boxes! Or channel Merch!
Logan K I agree. I wonder if there is anyone in the community who can process the wool and produce yarn and or make beanies?
I love watching shearing day. That first shear, you can almost see the relief in his posture as all that will comes off. It must feel so good in all that heat to take your Woolies off 😁
OMG they must feel SOOOOOOO much better after the haircut! They would be feeling light and cool! Love seeing an awesome shearing video!
I remember when Dad would take my brother and me to the barber shop in mid-june (after school was out) for our summer crewcut haircuts. We didn't really like it, but it sure kept us cool in the hot summer months! Seems similar.
I love your clipping videos. My Dad clips sheep around the country and I always go with him to pack wool and put sheep up the crush. Billy looks so beautiful! Are you going to use Billy for your next breeding section? I have been listening to your podcasts the last few days and they are very good!
They are still too young.
No they are old enough.
Can’t get over how relaxed the sheep are when being sheared 😄 it’s their sphaaaaaaaaa day
Could watch Charlie shear all day, it’s effortlessly and the outcome of the wool leaving the sheep must make them feel so much happier and a heck of a lot lighter. OH BILLY boy your so handsome 😍
Billy is so cute ! Need this just back from my best friends funeral yesterday haven’t been sleeping well lately last night my head was so overrun thank you sandi x
Seam10
I am so sorry for your loss. Hugs.
Good to sit back and clear your mind!!! Prayers for you!!
Praying for you 🙏🏻
@ Sean 10 I am so sorry 😐 for your loss. Many hugs your way 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Hugs from Alaska.
Graphic...yeah right CZcams. I’ve seen more graphic content on Disney Plus!
You tube flexing its muscles. Making sure is lesser plebs don't forget who is in charge!!
Charlie's the best. So ambidextrous. We are farmers. The Rams look great. Billy and the boys grew up so fast. Fun to watch and learn. Blessings
I. Really enjoy watching your sheep being sheered. Thank you. They all look gorgeous for their up coming dance 💃
If I was a Ram Lamb I would be so happy to get sheared.... it has to feel great after....
The all white sheep end up looking like little plucked chickens XDD
I love watching them get sheared. It’s so clean and neat when they get done. It’s just not healthy for them to have all the extra wool.
Have a great weekend Sandi
Charlie has one tough job , much respect to these hard working folks 🥳 !
I’ve never seen anything cruel or injurious in any of your sheep shearing videos. Heck ppl nick themselves shaving ecery day.
I think its just people who haven't had animals as pets or just think too deep into the Sheering that think its cruel
flatpickluvr
and we know exactly how it feels, too! Mostly, it doesn't!
Julie Enslow u6
I thought my post lockdown haircut was drastic 😉😂 They must feel so much cooler.
All that lanolin, Charlie’s hands must be soft as velvet. ❤️
The 3 Musketeers and Prince William are beautiful and clean and the shearing job is incredibly well done 😍😍😍😍
As many are wondering, is Billy and his bros going to get in on the breeding action this time around?
She said in a previous video that they are, she just has to make sure Billy isn't in the same pen as his mother.
JW Higby
I believe she said so. I am wondering if they will be penned with the other rams after this breeding cycle?
@@julieenslow5915 I don't remember what she said about keeping them apart, but wasn't it because they were too young? Keep them safe from the big boys back when they were still growing!
@@TheNellehFox Yes I do believe you are right. But if they are breeding this time, are they big enough? We know whenever they move in with the rams, they will have to be integrated into that group and will almost definitely be at the bottom of the pecking order. Does that mean they might get injured? I don't know! Others have managed it - but were they this young? There is the key point. Are they ready for breeding? Yes. Will she breed them? Will she integrate them? There is the question!
@@julieenslow5915 Its also way easier to integrate new rams into and established herd when you have already separated the rams, so with the sorting of breeding and the separation of the rams when they get thrown all back into together the pecking order is gonna have to be reestablished anyways so they wont get focused and picked on because they are new because everyone is "new"
It's not graphic content, youtube is just being an overly sensitive snowflake.
Top comment
I feel like those sheep get up and feel wonderful and cool. People are so ridiculous about farm life.
People who use the term snowflake are usually the most fragile
There are negative nancies out there who get upset if they get a nick or two
Sheering sheep is not any different than a man shaving his face or a lady shaving her legs and it helps keep them cool. There is no graphic content in doing that work. Thanks for the great videos.
I love sheep shearing day ... oh my goodness Charlie sheared all by himself ... what a guy ... he dies such a wonderful job
The sheep looked more upset that they had to move away from the fan.
I love those Suffolk sheep Sandi! Sad you are breeding them out.
In breeding 101 scrubs
I feel the same on the Suffolk. For whatever reason, they always catch my eye & especially the Suffolk lambs.. love those stockings & face markings. Did she ever say why she's breeding them out? I never caught why exactly.
Hi Sandi, Hope everything is going well with your Family. I love watching Charlie shear the sheep especially Billy. Your very lucky to have such dedicating people in your life. I watched Mark's video yesterday. You all are like a vitamin for me, I have to watch everyday. Please keep up the good work and tell Carissa my Family says hi!
Sandi, I could watch Charlie shear the sheep all day! I just find it very interesting. I love everything you do!😁👍
They must feel so much cooler without their big wooly coats! Again great team work to get things done quickly, kindly and get the sheep through.
When do Billy Jr. And the boys join the adult rams? They all looks so much more comfortable with that wool gone!
They are too young still, and will need to go through a vet check for conformation, and sperm court before they can breed.
Hi Sandy I’m interested in knowing more about the sheep with the “horn”. Was it actually a growth or did it come off during the shearing?
Did anyone else go “aww” when Billy walked between Sandi & the other 2 young painted rams? He’s jealous of mum’s attention 🥰. I’m so glad Sandi still shows the shearing despite the “controversy”🙄 because I find it really interesting. It’s so satisfying when they go from wooly mess to a nice clean sheep, ready to face the summer heat
Some happy fresh shaven boys and gals!!! I always love shaving day ❤️❤️
Those people who shear sheep for a living deserve every penny they get paid also it pays to be ambidextrous when you are shearing.
I have the answer why CZcams doesn't like this;
The sheep/rams kicking and Charlie applying the pressure to those necessary points. It seems like animal abuse to CZcams and to the special snowflakes that never seen this done.
Watching Charlie shear your sheep was very therapeutic. 🤩
I’ve loved watching Charlie grow this past year! It is horrendous here right now with 100% humidity and heat index is over 100 🥵
I'm honestly just wondering what laundry detergent Charlie uses to get all the lanolin oils out of his pants...
And iam sure he doesn't have a problem with Dry skin!!
Did you save some Billy wool?
I love watching them get sheared, they look so refreshed after that and I bet they feel great.
He’s such a good sheerer that he lifts the balls to get underneath!
That’s love. ❤️
