There's nothing wrong with watching sheep shearing. I like sheep, and I'm just hoping that the sheep are not too uncomfortable while being sheared. I didn't think that they were, but I started wondering that yesterday while watching a sheep shearing video when seeing sheep really kicking and trying to get away.

The animal is playing dead. It’s a instinct. Pulling the head to the side simulates a prey animal giving up on life. You can see that behavior with wild deer who are badly injured and can’t run too. They pull the head to the side, expose the throat at wait for the kill. He forever that sheep at the beginning into that position and overpowered it to get that instinct going

An art that has been perfected over many many years. This is how it’s done!! It it possible to shear a sheep and not cut it (other than nicks here and there). It takes a bit more patience and work.

It's almost like a dance. Such amazing skill and such a physical job : hats off to all shearers

this is such a good way of explaining it. I watched this over and over again and then sheered my friends sheep with 0 expierence and my fastest sheep was less then 30 minutes. hope to one day do it in 10 like you guys do haha

I am just learning to shear my own small flock..I live way out in the boonies and not just anyone will come to shear so I bought my own shears and do it myself. My sheep are very tame and they are actually haltered and tied up. I do what I can with them standing and then I have a 'sheep chair'...I back them up and put them in that and do the bottom side and trim their feet. My sheep that I am cross breeding for market lambs are for the most part hair on the under side but I still have some woolies. I am crossing Dorper/Texel this is why they have clean undersides. The sheep chair is one of the best things I ever built and so easy for me...

So cool.nice haircut for the sheep.my two year old screams murder when we cut his hair. It this big ol sheep just laid nice and still for the most part.wish I could get my kids to protest as little:D

Oh for crying out loud. These sheep HAVE to be sheared. The wool eventually becomes ratty pulls the skin and will infect the skin. This is what sheep are for. God instructed us to take care of animals. He provided a way for food and clothing. These sheep are well fed, and cared for. There is nothing unethical about wool. There is nothing unethical about eggs either. Those pop out of a hen regardless of where they are or how they live. Maybe the problem with human beings is they are so hungry for power and control that instead of letting the other human beings live their own life, raise their animals the way animals are supposed to be raised, outside in pens and cared for properly, and just let everybody have their own little piece of land with their own animals and their own farm sets instead of cramming them into cities promising them offers of jobs and cars and now the government provides cell phones and where do you think the food is going to come from? It is going to come from the farms and in order to mass produce all that is needed for these people the government has crammed into the cities, then you need more animals on these Farms to produce that food. Cows fart, horses fart, chickens fart, human beings fart this cow farting thing destroying the environment is the most ridiculous thing I can't believe so many people are believing such a stupid lie this is the ecosystem the way God set it up. If you don't like it get over it

Thank you! About to do our small flock of Finnish sheep. It's been years since I've sheared sheep and the past 3 years I've done hand shearing (not easy, I'm getting too old for that). I needed a video on how to use the electric shears. This is perfect. I've watched a few others that were not so great, or ended up with the sheep cut all over, some deeply (cringe). Really appreciate this - will be looking up your channel to see what other videos you have.

We have a sheep grazing in our yard and the owners have all but forgotten she exists, so we were thinking of buying her. My only concern is we'd have to shave her and I'm absolutely terrified of gutting her, especially since she's never been shaved before. Probably going to have a pro do it until she gets use to it. This video was very informative and I'll definitely be taking notes for when I inevitably have to do it myself.

This is amazing. Great job.

I have heard that shearing is inhumane and then I have seen unsheared sheep and in the heat they pant, they don't want to move, they can overheat. . . . .it's inhumane to not shear them and let them carry around so much weight, become matted, and wear extra heavy blankets of wool in the hot summer months. That's is what is inhumane.

Im a kiwi shearer and i must say that was a very tidy job but very slow and strange way of doing it, as in the blows you take are a quite off the usual pattern and you dont use the full comb in each blow making it take far longer then it should and more difficult then it should be, it should take no more than 1-2 minutes a sheep

What percentage of sheep shearing operations are actually this skilled and careful with the sheep? I’ve seen so many videos of just brutality and bleeding sheep.

Great job...this is how sweaters start...

Happy new year

this is excellent. can you please talk about the equipment as well? thank you! also how differs for male sheep if you have to do things differently regarding balls and horns...

I saw a demonstration at a farm on open farm day. The shearers wore specialist shearers' clothing - stretch jeans with no rivets, sleeveless t shirts, moccasins to minimise pinching and scratching of the livestock.

So Satisfying😀

How long does it takes to master this craft? I also wonder why are all sheeps so calm? Must you work with them from beginning, to develop this kind of behavior, or is it just their nature? Nice video and sorry for my english.

Beautiful presentation! Thank you so much. I have one Southdown babydoll living with goats and shearing is hilarious here. She is a fat little thing and doesn't do well on her butt. Your video will definitely get me going in the right direction. What brand of shears do you recommend for a woman (petite{ to use on a Southdown babydoll? I am currently using a beast and it makes the job so much more difficult. I am in Sadieville Kentucky, near Lexington. Who do you recommend for shearing service? Thank you!

It's a young mans game that. I had to do 18 sheep of ours years ago because the shearer was so unreliable and I was worried about the sheep overheating mid summer. You would probably shoot me for this 😂 but I did the sheep standing up, my back is knackered anyway and I struggled. I can't turn them over anymore, a strong friend held the sheeo on a lead. The sheep are quite friendly which helped, as did a few handfuls of ewe nuts occasionally. It took me about 6 days between us but I could not find a replacement shearer for love nor money so I look at it as I did my bit. We found a better and reliable shearer the following year , I always book him around February time if I can to get an early shear. This guy has a spring hook thing he tues up above and leans onto, saves his back strain.

Thanks for the info

a slightly different pattern from what I was taught but pretty good and instructive.

Hiya and THANK YOU for such a wonderful tutorial--I have a question about combs/blades--I shear only for myself and keep a flock of under 20 most of the time--I am having a devil of a time keeping the combs from gumming up with lanolin/grease, and find I have to clean several times per sheep to keep cutting well without second cuts. My sheep aren't filthy by any means, yet they are so greasy it makes shearing dreadful. Pasture/hay fed, salt and water (no grain or supplements). I've been using a comb similar to the one in the video. Have you some tips I may glean from? Thanks again, and thanks in advance!!

@blackdandelion5549

4 ай бұрын

After each time you shear your 20 sheep you should have your blades sharpened. Many people/shearers know how to do this at home. Buy a quality name brand machine with quality blades and oil before every shearing every begins. I oil mine in the correct area and let the blades run on speed 1/2 for several minutes to ensure the oil is distributed properly and there is not too much oil by wiping away any excess on the blades I see that may appear shiny. Check your tension. Each shearers has a tension piece at the top that holds the comb and the blades together to be able to shear and the best theory is "tighten as much as your fingers comfortably can (don't hurt your fingers to do it) and then untwist by about 1/2 a turn" and this gives enough tightness to keep everything together and enough room for things to move freely w/o creating any friction which can not only cause issues with cutting, but can cause the blades to be warmer than they should be. Usually the oil on the blades themselves keeps them from becoming "gummed up" from lanolin and the teeth may become more gummed up as they are pushing through some thick fiber with lanolin lining that kept the sheep waterproof over winter, but the comb will have the stuff come off or I just take a garage towel and wipe it off occasionally if needed. If there is an actual issue with cutting I am thinking my blades are not sharp, not oiled, or do not have the correct tension. If my machine is years old and has gone through a fair bit of sheep then I may also be checking internal parts as mine has a fan I clear after every use to ensure air is flowing through to keep it cooled, but the tension I spoke of has a spring on the inside that can become worn over several years of leaving the device with tension when I put it away. I usually put it away with the slightest twist to make sure the new sharp blades and clean comb don't fall off and I clean the comb and blades and sharpen the blades I did use that day before putting them away. I always buy two sets of blades, even if I only have a small flock like yours. One is always sharp and can be put on and the other is in use and/or going to be sharpened by me before being put away so they become the sharp set ready to use. These would be the key items I would be looking at for the issues you are referring to for the issues you describe as you are not alone in having these issues and it's normally one of these things that is the cause.

What clipper blades size are you using?
