Lovely to see the old tradition of Luck penny still being carried on .......... The buyer cannot determine what the luck penny should be, thats left up to the generosity of the seller . The seller should not give back to the buyer any of the money he has just received from the buyer ,but other different money , and if you can there should be a bit of jingle in it .
But look , Robbie knew all this anyway .....,
Best video in the channel by far.👍
Glad you enjoyed this one 👌
Well done David, always a nervy day sale day!! Rams looked grand ay, your right to be proud of them, all the best
Cheers Adam, scanning and selling will make any sheep farmer nervous 😉
I bred for and sold tups for years as part of my sheep business, terminal and maternal. Terminal always brought more than maternal. I think a maternal ram is worth more, personally, as he's the cornerstone of a flock. Great video.
Agree 100% on the ram and without good maternal females in a flock it's a tough road...
Great video David. Showing the ups and downs of selling tups, congratulations on your tups they look very good
Thanks very much, well said with "ups and downs'. Hasn't always gone to plan...
@@sheepschool365 best laid plans and all that. Great channel keep up the good work.

Great video and good looking Rams.

Love that shirt Robbie
He's some man!
Well done David the cream always comes to the top. A rising tide lifts all boats. Great video.
Great video David. Glad ur hard work paid off . You deserve it.
Good stuff
👍
Nice work mate, I’d buy those lads you had left over. An ideas why some sold and some didn’t? Good job getting a few off after 👌👌
I'm pretty sure it was because my lots were so early in the sale and quite a few buyers were late due to Friday evening traffic...
Good job David! Its always interesting to see market values from different countries. Recently my family purchased a chev/texel at 500 a Suffolk at 800 and a chev at 1500. Breeding season has begun in western Canada!
Glad you did well at the sale.
Cheers Linda 👍
Good prices David - nothing wrong with those figures - congratulations on a great sale day
Thanks very much 😊
Hello mate
Well done
Thanķs for the quality content.
Cheers Steve, glad you enjoyed it👌
Great video however, I would be very careful when using your electric clippers. You were standing in water, a great way to get electrocuted!
Shed protected by RCD and wired to reci standards.
Always a time for something to happen when your rushing about. Thankfully our electrics are really sensitive to damp conditons so I'd hope that would save me 🙏
So that what brown wool looks like. Always heard the Lleyn inspection were particular on brown hair but could never see whatcit looks like. 👍
A very well done for price's.
Very particular on rams for breeding as it could only come from mixing with other breeds back a few generations I believe..
Just been watching Kiwi Farmer here in NZ (YT channel) he has started lambing - outside lambin and the weather is great 0 overnight and around 14 degrees during the day (mid winter here in NZ) - he has had the vet out to mineral check his sheep (and cattle) to see how that is looking - he is mineral checking as his late lambing group was only 133% which is really low for NZ - mineral results due back this week so will be interested to see how that goes - NZ soil is known to be mineral deficient
Good videos, I watch him from time to time and I'll definitely check that one out! Some of our land can be very low in minerals also..
well done
Cheers 👌
Davie have you tried that Fug for washing your sheep, if Daz does not whiten it or Tide does not Brighten in Fug it 😂😂, looked a great job Davie well done my friend
Thank you George, never head of that.. Drop me an email if you get a chance: sheepschool2022@gmail.com
well done in tullamore and at the sale David!
Good stuff David , well done .I think a lot of society inspections are a bit tight and ive always found that beltex rams with a patch or 'spec' of brown or black wool to be the best carcase lamb producers , in a sheep world with so many coloured varieties of breeds , its something we should not get hung up on , its the carcase and feet we should put more focus on . I've never ate the hair of a sheep in my life.
Would that partly be down to the fact that you were able to buy a better ram for the same price? Sensible though 👍
Robbie mccrae 🤠🤠 great vid
Robbie doesn't hang about when the pressure is on🤣
Great video 👍
You will have the tipex out for the brown hair next year😂
🤣🤣
Great video David saw you in tullamore today
Thanks 👍
Tough day wrestling sheep in the heat today but well worth it....🔥
You finally get paid fer your lambs that you have put so much work into.
It is nice to hit it lucky sometimes 👌
Well done it’s not easy to bring out a sheep to a sale much less 10 , I have never been to a sale in carrick on Shannon but some very well known breeders were there and they seem to have brought out good stock. Is everyone up your neck of the woods called David? Regards from Wicklow.
There was 4 David's in my class in school...😉 Extremely good stock in the sale 👌
David great video just have a question how many sheep are you bringing to roscommon
Thank you Charlie. Bringing 150 hogget ewes, 20 ewe lambs and 6 rams. Might see you there?
Thanks for telling me that hope to see you there
Where is your sheep stick David?
Well done was that your first big show
It was my first big sale which was not a Lleyn sale 👍
