  • We've got some little bullies on our hands...
    I call it bullying, but it's sort of establishing a pen order for our bottle (nanny) babies.
    We introduced too many, too quickly and some just don't get a chance to drink.
    Also sort of spiralling from a negative comment that I read before I was really awake, and it always sets a not so great tone for the rest of my days.
    Always try to include as much context as I can with my vlogs, but when lambing is crazy, the editing suffers and it usually bites me in the backside.
    As always, you are all so very supportive, and the negative comments are usually due to lack of clarity on my end.
    Thank you for being patient with me.

    Hi Sandi, I worked as a Hospice RN and learned early on that most people don't know anything about death. They live in a fantasy world where there is always a cure, something you can do to avoid death. Sometimes it just isn't possible. We have watched to give CPR to so many lambs and save them. Have confidence in your own caring and love for what you do. You have. saved so many, and I think you are awesome!

    Here’s a comment to make you smile. I grew up on a farm in the midwestern US. We primarily had angus cattle and my Dad trained horses. He also was superintendent of a manufacturing plant. We had sheep for a couple years. He used to come and get us kids and said he would ‘treat us’ to bottle feeding lambs. lol. Now I know we were the ones feeding all the bottle babies. He was pressed for time I’m sure. Such good memories. 🤗

      😊 Remember, several months ago, Sandi said if she had to intervene there was a good chance the lamb might be weak in some important area & die anyway. She said the Vet said that she can't second guess nature, and some lambs can't survive no matter how much effort is put into intervention.

    Sandy, I realize how hard it must be not to react to comments like that. Especially when you function on so few hours of decent sleep during lambing season. You are right, don't read the feedback first thing in the morning.
    To Sandy's loyal followers, please remember, if it's not your monkey then it's not your circus. Keep the comments and suggestions kind and thoughtful. It's Sandy's barn which she voluntarily cares to share with us. It has been an eye opener for me personally, the work and commitment that goes into farming! Thank you all❣️
    Merry Christmas 🌟

And on top of that you choose to share it with us. You go above and beyond. I am so thankful for you. Your updates keep me going and keep me sane in this world where there are so many crazy things happening and where people's selfishness causes it to be a horrid place at times. But this is a little haven of loveliness. Thank you for sharing not just your farming with us, but giving so much of yourself, and sharing with us your amazing family.

      So many people feel the need to criticize, even when there is nothing to criticize. So they find anything. “When you walked into the barn, you lead with the left foot. You should always lead with the right foot. I’ll be watching!” Always more ridiculous than not. Hopefully you will get an apology, but don’t hold your breath. (It must be so hard to travel through life when you are perfect in every way, but the rest of the world population is not.)

We've all lost animals and questioned every move we made wondering if we did all we could. It is what makes us human; and what makes us vulnerable. You are absolutely amazing and we are all thankful for you allowing us to come along on your journey. Wishing you, your beautiful family, your barns full of sheep and the 3 great farm dogs a joyful, happy and healthy Christmas and only the best in 2024.

      So true... especially already fragile animals like lambs.
      My friend had a rabbit that she took into the vet for an ear infection, and out of nowhere on the table he just suddenly started having trouble breathing, went into cardiac arrest and died.
      Turned out he had pneumonia that he hadn't shown a single sign of. It came out of nowhere.
      Another she had years before got so frightened by a thunderstorm that his heart stopped.

You don’t want the lambs to be bullied. We don’t want you to be bullied! You don’t deserve it anymore than the lambs do. Hold your head high! You are really, really good at what you do! 💖🙏🐑

    It is so easy to be an "arm chair" farmer! When you are intensely involved with your livestock, trying to deal with everything at the same time, things out of our control is going to happen, no matter how hard we try! I had a small doe deliver my first set of triplets this spring, on a cold, damp day. She chose a difficult place (for me) to deliver them. I tried to save them all. 1 died before I could get her warmed up, the other died a few days later, and the last one I ended up having to put down months later because of a terminal deformity. We do our best, that's all we can do! Don't beat up on yourself because of a comment from an arm chair farmer!

    I'm sending warm hugs from Georgia (southeastern USA)! I love seeing those little lambs testing their springs - so doggone adorable! Even with the sometimes rough cuts on occasion, I have never had trouble understanding what was going on. You're doing your best even when the ewes are not. We (your subscribers) know you are not callous about the loss of any of your flock, regardless of how new or old they are - Sandi, you are an inspiration to me! I previously thought farms as large as your couldn't possibly care as much for their animals as small farms do, but I see how much you genuinely care for your sheep! The extra snuggles for that little red bottle baby makes me wonder if you'll pop him into your ram flock instead of sending him off to market when he's large enough. Thank you for the extra happiness today - between the sweet lambs, puzzle assembly, and advent calendar I'm smiling nonstop. 😁

    So sorry there are bullies out there. As a rancher I totally understand it's a life and death thing when babies are coming. You come across as a very compassionate person and I really relate to that. Those who think they know it all have never pulled an all nighter on baby watch (I've done horses and cows) need to watch and learn. Exhaustion is a real thing when you are dealing with animals... Great job! I'm learning so much about lambing. Not something I'm real familiar with. Enjoying your channel. Merry Christmas from Texas!

    I’m sorry. 😪 Sometimes we do everything and things still die. It’s heartbreaking for us. Loss is part of farming. I wish it weren’t. I guess if it weren’t, a lot more people would do it. Coming from someone who is new to sheep, with a very small flock of katahdins, I appreciate you sharing. Hugs!

    No, it's not your fault, you can't predict what will happen to a lamb, you are very caring to your sheep and babies, thank you for sharing, but you also can't dwell on a loss either, as heart breaking as it is. Things happen in nature, hugs, and love ❤️, it makes my day everytime I see that you posted a video. Thank you again. My heart is full of happy little lambs ❤, I love puzzle building. So cute

    I just LOVE your shots of the sheep and lambs just being happy in the shed! It's so adorable when the lambs are running back and forth, jumping around and full of baby-animal energy, and when the babies are climbing all over their ever patient Mamas! Who knew sheep were so fascinating and sweet!?
    Obviously, Sandi Brock did, or we'd not be here watching her beautiful flock and disgustingly cute lambs! [that's a compliment to the lambs, they are too adorable for words!]

    The milk replacer bog had a large tag hanging from the bottom seam. It reminds me of the wash clothes that were stitched into the bottom seam of flour sacks. I'm from a family of share-croppers and small family farmers. Flour sacks and feed sack were once made of cotton print fabric, so that the sack could be used as fabric to make clothes, curtains, quilts.....anything. Because we had so little, we used the sacks to make everything. We made sure to buy the same print to make clothes from, and the scraps from making the clothes were had stitched onto newspaper squares to make quilts. My grandmother passed in 2020. While clearing out the house, we found extra flour sacks she had put back. We all got our choice of prints and still had plenty left to make a quilt. All of use and taking turns quilting the quilt. That small detail in your video, brought back a flood of memories. You make a difference without knowing.
