Charlotte, I just spotted your power extension lead to supply electricity to your Las-tec lamb feeder. You might consider unwinding the power lead fully as when it is coiled up it will heat up and is a fire risk. This happens because there is heat produced by electricity when flowing through the cable and it is consented when in a coil. Keep up the good work.

Who cares , hell you know what you mean whichever way around you write it ! (2) Loving it !! 😅

Nice working

Im 19 years old and work with my dad on our beef and sheep farm here in south west Wales and absolutely love it despite the weather being absolutely atrocious this spring. Love your videos keep it up x

We had 100 triplets one year and got a mikk machine, we screwed bucket lids on pallets and put the teats in the middle of the lid, worked well. We also had trouble with texl lambs eyes.

The injections weren’t that bad just a little blood but then I love watching operations on tv 😂. Thanks Charlotte for taking the time to explain things around the farm. I’m one of the none farmers who enjoys your learning from you. I told you before you should be going around schools teaching 😂😂

Hope you have had the chance to read the Temple Grandin book I've sent you ? Enrichment is important for animals. Give the cows an automated brush/ scratcher ? Even a football is fun as cows will kick it about.

We have some wonderful brushes ready to go up :) freedom is the aim of the game with these cows the freedom to choose what they want to do :)

Another great video Charlotte , its great to see how you care for your lambs.

Hate to admit it but i skipped the bit injecting the lambs eyes. Even though i'm diabetic and have 4 jabs a day, something about eyes..... great video all the same. Shed looks mega.

Injected loads of texel lambs eyes over the years and didn't have to revisit one of them, very effective method of saving irritation and blindness.

You're an amazing woman, Charlotte ❤. You did an amazing job.

Your cat has a great life 😂people who whine at the way you carry lambs they would hate how have carried kids in the pass all whille laden down with shopping etc 😂 great video chaz

Hi. Sorry for my delayed reply it’s a bit busy at min and had no time to sit down and catch up. We used to breed and show purebred Lincoln Longwool but we now cross them with whatever tup I can get hold of either Charolais or belted usually. We used to have same problem with eyelids, we generally used to just pull eyelid out and squirt a small amount of pen and strep straight into eyeball from syringe with no needle on. Not quite so gruesome but used to do the trick. That milk machine is awesome I like it a lot!! Least I not the only one with a phone full of sheep scribblings!!!😂😂

Sandi Brock (Sheepishly me) uses an automatic pet lamb feeder similar to the one you have, but much bigger - she calls it the Nanny, as she lambs a lot more sheep and has a lot of multiples She says that lambs chew on the teats and pull at them so that the lines come off and she ends up with milk floods. Being in Canada she often comes into the shed to find the lines have frozen overnight and need to sit in hot water for a while to thaw out.

A great video Charlotte, I have just taken to some time out to catch up on your video family here with kids 😮😔😳🙄

You'd make a fair vet nurse hun x seen my fair share of entropians in dogs. Loving te lambing content x shed is looking bangging. You def need your logo on the black roofing part now😉😋 keep up the aming work you and Roy do xxx

​@@jamesgriffiths7579 my grandfather did injections like Charlotte does. In an injury we've had to do injections of various meds in the eye depending on animal. Bison horned? Direct injection in the eye over a course of weeks. Usually steroids and antibiotics. Forgive me, it's been a few decades. He would do every course of treatment first before surgery. We're in the States in the Midwest and its important to try and save the eye for their own safety.

Charlotte having a cable drum not fully unwound means the cable gets hot and can cause a fire

great video

Good care and Good work.

I think farmer p years ago did have eye on lamb problem he did vid on how to sort it

Great video you amazing Lady

Wow, I must admit that I watch the injection bit through my fingers, Well I am from London, great video as ever, Do agree with the others about the extenstion cord. Loved the close up of the puss, all looking great. See you next time. Witchy.

Another good video Charlotte Luckily I never had to do a interned interned eyelid but have been told u can pinch the eye lid to make it swell up

Charlotte watching your latest upload please uncoil the extension cable on the LAC-TEC machine. When it's coiled up it acts like a fuse and can set on fire 🙏

@jamesgriffiths7579

2 ай бұрын

good observation, but it acts more like a coil than a fuse. they are meant to be unrolled all the way or the cord can't dissipate the heat that can build up from the current running through the cord. I would definitely recommend unrolling the cord for the safety of the pets😊

Charlotte, the previous comment beat me to it re the extension lead, I have heard of various fires occuring due to the heating up, okay for a short time, but as you have "power" going thru all day!! Get in uncoiled! Having had a house fire two years ago (electrical) we are still fighting the insurance company to pay out!

Good vid lass i like that feeder .look you know on farms you have to do some vetting your self if it makes them better in the end thats the main thing iv had eye lashes in my owen eyes and welding flashes as we and its not very comffey so if it fixes them up good ok be safe youz lot

One of your lambs when sucking on one of the cable ties - green one. It may be safer to snip the surplus off the tie. 👍

Yesterday I alerted her to a in lamb ewe who was in labour. I was able to watch the birth which I always consider a privilege. I am very impressed that shepherds all over the world are so professional.

Pull the eyelid out then pinch the bottom eyelid with your nails hard to crease it, quite often stops it from going back in

Farmer P used that technique when he had lambs

I was much like you. But I saw a video from farmer P (Iain) where he had the same from his sheep. He found if you pinch the eyelid it sorts them out. I’d assume a little pain but it does work.

Yup I don’t like doing it either but it’s a case of having to, cruel to be kind is my take on it. Some years are worse than others for it. You all set for Kathleen? The wind is blowing bad here already but it’s not raining yet in fact we have had a dry day. We sell our pets in the local livestock market ( we just call it mart or sales depending on where you live but I know that it’s not that in GB) go with a Hank of them most weeks got between €35 and €50 each for 7 of them on Tuesday and by the 1 st of may we will have none ( truthfully we give away a good few as well to friends and neighbours who need a lamb for a ewe, but we get lambs back occasionally too when needed) with the price of powdered milk and lamb creep it’s not exactly a great proposition to rear pets anyway ( very appropriate song). We don’t count lambs till we tail them ! Then we just count the tails basically when they are lambed out far too many especially the singles are untouched by anyone till we get them in for a dose and branding ( or at least that’s how we hope it will be) regards from Ireland, the small very wet island next door!

botox on sheep your a master of all trades

that lamb milk feeder looks a good bit of kit........could you use it for rearing calves .....i don't see why not... do you have to flush it out with water and cleaner the same as you would do with a milking parlour .......surely the milk would go sour and clog up the pipes if it wasn't flushed out regular
