    This is a great film! I'm about 50km from Millmerran and we've had over 5" of rain for the last few weeks. So this place would be looking a million bucks right now.

    She's so inspirational and really makes me think that there is value in getting registered v good quality Dorper genetics when you are set up and experienced with sheep management

  • @andrewfreshwater2948

    Its really cool that other people are calling Dorpers the Angus of the sheep breed - its actually a phrase I came up with to describe them in around 2007.
    Soph does a brilliant job and is a bloody legend of sheep breeding!

    Love the content. I have just a few acres to work with but I’d still love to do it. If I can get a few more acres that are adjoined to mine I want to try a tiny regenerate farming operation.
    I’m going to hang out here and enjoy your videos. I started awhile back but my work is up and down and we’ve been in the up side.
    Thank you much for your knowledge

  • @everettarthur6525
    @everettarthur6525 Před 4 měsíci +5

    I wouldn't say the sheep are not fed grain, They are just not from a bucket.. Instead they plant the grain on the pasture LOL

    Howdy! I'm a 4th generation rancher from Texas. Our ranch turns 100 this year. We run dorper and merino. Althought the american wool lndustry is a lost cause so well likely only run dorper soon. I enjoy the videos. Its good to bring attention to the lifestyle.

    Very good documentary. Sometimes the accent was a little difficult, but overall a good starting point. It is very flat in that part of Australia.

    25 inch annual rainfall is pretty high for most of Australia 😂😂 you could raise any animal on that sort of rain 🤦🏼‍♂️

    Great video! How well do you think the Dorper would adapt to the British climate with higher rainfall and cooler winters.

    • @zacapps5029
      @zacapps5029 Před 5 měsíci

      Most likely not as good as British breeds. Dorper don't fair as well in temperate areas.

      But Goats are better suited to desert regions than
