On the Farm - Loading Sheep

Well as those baby lambs grow and the weather gets warmer it becomes time to move them, now sheep, to graze on grass.
This video shares how we load, haul and then unload the sheep onto their grazing. They will move through the summer to new areas but will begin on the dessert grass of south east Idaho.
I want to thank Robert and Blake for their encouragement in making the video and their ideas. Robert you were right the shots from inside the trailer were great.

Very well made and interesting video. I thought it was neat how the dog ran into the trailer to herd the sheep out. You guys are awesome!

The dogs really are great help with the work. Thank you for your kind comment.

Great vid. I noticed the herder had a few border collies. That's what they do best, it's all natural for them. Stay safe.

They are good working dogs for the herder. Thank you for your comment.

Our local news had a story this week of the busiest road in Idaho having a section being temporarily closed for a sheepherder that was trailing his sheep over to the Sun Valley area for grazing. Good work family!

I have been wanting to go to the celebration they have in Sun Valley in late summer. However, it always comes during grain harvest.

Just found this- very interesting to watch and insightful! I am a student at Colorado State University studying Animal Sciences and looking to get into the sheep ranching business and this video gave me one of many great looks into some "basics". Thank you, hope to see more of this and you've certainly earned a subscriber!

So glad to hear you liked the content. Good luck in your studies. We sell many of our livestock in Colorado.

@oneatatime8677 3 жыл бұрын

Yes. We have to get inside the trailer at times to be sure the sheep fill it properly. The denim coat on that one is for protection against the droppings of the wool covered sheep. :)

The dogs are a great help. The big white dog in the video is a Great Pyrenees. They help to guard the heard from predators.
