Shalom! SIs Sandi. A wonderful farm house with many beautiful stories...WE Watch, we laugh, we weep,, we share the sadness, we rejoice,, we love, we wonder, we pray,, we care..With God in control...all things will work out well.. Hi Jack!..you are special too.We love you too..we will also uphold you you in prayer..God bkess everyone..😊❤❤.Amen!❤

Seeing those sheep mamas and lambs doing their wind sprints is so funny to watch! So stress relieving for me. Maybe not you, but for me, yes.

I think that this whole episode proves the value of a well trained dog. Kinsey has the tools, all she needs is some trsining

Who is this Lauren??lol. Can't wait to hear more.. good job on the surprise!!!

That was one of the unintentionally funniest videos I’ve seen. Now I understand why Sandi was trying to become one with the sheep, etc to prepare for the moving weaning lambs. That jumper was wild! So entertaining! Today’s Gong show brought to you buy Sun and Shadows. 😂

Love that you mention Temple Grandin. Such a brilliant woman with enviable insight into the behavior of animals.

The mums from the other side are saying let them take the kids you will have peace until next time but you will be able to do what you want and the lambs are oblivious and think yes exercise and look mum joined in not knowing the mums are jumping for joy they are actually going to be free from the lambs it is like when you moved the lambs over the older lambs where saying hello to each other so cute

They're cute sheep they are good girls cute sheep I have sheep

Get rid of the curved alley. Use the straight section only. Set it up to go straight out of barn directly to the trailer. Less turns the better. Open the whole trailer gate so they can go out faster.

You are doing things humanely. I think you’re an amazing woman. Raising your kids and running this business.

Toilet bowl cleaner is actually really good at loosening the junk in showers👏🏼😎😂

Loved you surprising Jess! Priceless...❤️👍🏻. All the sheep and lambs looked so adorable jumping! Makes me smile! 😁

Lord that looked harder to get them out of the trailer then in. You guys done a wonderful job surprising Jess her reaction and just standing up there running her chops instead of running to greet her. wow

Miss Sandy only say one thing I'm so thankful to God that you actually have a awesome camera and I don't know how much it costs or anything like that and I don't care about that stuff I just wanted to say wow come on and you always explain when you can't use it thank you so much and thank you so much for bringing us on your journey with you God bless you it takes I don't know how you do it but it takes a very big woman and a very smart woman and one of these dedicated to the animals to do what you do God bless you miss Sandy and your whole family you really you just don't see how special you all are and how precious you are at other people you're inspiring the nation not just Canada thank you so much

Sheep are clever than folk think 🤔

Watching this video just proves that there should be sheep Olympics. Those babies are so cute and funny.

Your daughter reminds me of my daughter, the fun of having teenagers lol. You have a beautiful hard working daughter who is her mom through and through.

Awesome surprise!!! Had me fooled.....thought hubby was homesick lol. I know they say counting sheep helps you fall asleep.....but now I know why. THEY'RE EXHAUSTING!!! Great job!

6:00 This may have been suggested before, but have you tried using flags to move your more stubborn sheep? When my sister had goats and sheep, they were escape artists and the best way I found to get them herded back into their pen was by using the same flag pole I used to desensitize my horse. It didn't stress them a ton, but it was eye-catching enough that even the goats would give up that nice patch of grass when I waved it at their backside or gave them a gentle tap-tap. The stick being two meters long also helped a lot lol

I can’t wait to hear the full story of the young gal who flew in from Australia to surprise Jess...

Good to see im not the only one whose brain stutters using the drafting gate... 😉🇭🇲

I guess it's a good thing those sheep & lambs don't realize that if they all just push they could push all those fences down.

This is my second time watching this particular video since I subscribed about a year ago and I am once again sitting here sobbing like a baby, tears running down face, grabbing a tissue, when Jess sees who's home and the hugging. I am such an Empath. 🥰🥰

When your sheep dog learns to push you'll be sitting in high cotton! Much easier! Thanks for sharing!

I was just talking about Dr. Temple Grandin and how she changed the agricultural industry. With the squeeze shoots and the turn. How she realized that cattle didn’t like dead end areas, loud noises, shadows, sudden light, and hitting and electric shocks. The movie explained a lot.

I love watching the whole process of these lambs, from birth to parenthood, lol! That jumper was about as sassy as Jess, lol! Mabe they will team up, lol! What a great surprise! You had ne fooled, I thought Daddy was home. It was a surprise for us as well. Thank you for such an entertaining video, as usual. They're All great!! 🥰

Temple Grandin is the best! I read her book years ago and I need to read it again.

Sandi Great surprise ffg or your daughter. How is the smallest lamb doing the 19 lbs one. Thanks so much for sharing ❣💗yr vlogs 😇🙏. 💗seeing the weaning lambs moved to a different area

Awww this was so awesome to watch the Jess' reaction to the Lauren surprise!! Good boy Jack for cleaning the house!! Sooo much energy in those little lambs.

I don't think we have Family Day down here in the US. It's such a nice concept (awww, sweet surprise for Jess!💗), but here, we'd have to have at least one therapist along to keep the peace...

I'm on a farm in NZ and when we have to shift a group of calves who are friendly and hard to get going. We often get an empty bottle of some sort an put some small rocks in it and shake them. The noise makes even the most stubborn ones turn and run the opposite direction 😅 Just a idea of perhaps an easy way to get them moving especially with each generation getting friendlier 🤷 Love watching your videos tho ❤

Great Surprise! Boy you sure do have your hands full on weening day. Good thing your daughter was there to help. Peace Be With You All ☮️

Gosh I can’t believe how fast they grew!

Good video Sandi awesome on the surprise lol . Daniel from central Mississippi

My closed caption identifies all the baas as either music or applause. The sparrows are always music. 🤣

@blakemama

The little lambpede also shows as applause. Occasionally, a few sheep will vocalize in the same moment and auto-generated English subtitles will show words like moon, bond, mom. I need the captions, but I also wear headphones so I can hear the voiceovers. No lip reading if you're facing away.

Hi Sandi, from just outside ACT Australia,love your videos . you do an awesome job with your sheep,and Lambing in the weather you do,wow hats off to you ,I just wish you could train your dog it would make your life so much easier if she could work for you,I know she wants to try.I know you have talked about this before but man a working dog is worth 2 if not 3 people in a shed and carting that big gate around ,man your arm mussels must be awesome lol .Coming over to USA and Canada in May,June and July this yr for the Calgary Stampede so cant wait to visit your country,I has been on my ,to do list.forever and finally getting to see it,just a real shame we cant come to your part of a beautiful country though. Keep up the great work.Cheers Leonie

Great surprise for Jessi

Great surprise

You do a very good job. I congratulate you. Have a nice day. greetings

Public holidays, do you have any with your sheep? Farmers do an incredible job, always on call, barely any rest, you really don't steal your paycheck 💪

As I watch the three of you work I cannot help but think, women who think women are discriminated against and held back by society need to see what capable motivated farm women do everyday!!!! 👍👍👍❤❤❤😍😍😍 Great surprise!!!!

I'm fascinated by al these sheep. The girl with lighter hair is very involved, proactive. However , darker hair is such Diva, shes just not motivated. What a drag

That’s great that you got some help .

Great video. 🐑🐑

Oh what a great surprise for Jess! Family day indeed. I had to laugh at the jumper...I am sure he will be stealing some milk from some poor brother or sister. You were so right, hungry ewes didn’t want to leave those puny scraps. Great job ladies.

Temple is amazing!

Hi Sandi, I am a sheep farmer from Gauteng in South Africa, I really enjoy your videos and am learning a lot, keep up the good work.

Sandi - Always great to see you and your family working together on a project. There is an expression which goes like this, "Many hands make light work." Blessings to you Mark, and the kids, from the retired Lutheran Pastor in Davenport, Iowa.

Everytime i watch a weaning Day video it reminds me of my preschool kids on a rainy day.

This is an older video so I don't know if you'll see this, but in January of 2023, I'm enjoying watching your number of subscribers climb to an important milestone. I love, love, love your vlogs and stepping into your world.

your daughter is funny lol

Those bottle babies look really nice in size.

Cooperation is always so nice, LOL Good job Sandi. They sure do get vocal. God Bless you and yours.

May I suggest that you get the curved part of the chute as near the door of the trailer as possible and use non see through panels to meet the door...,,, this works well with our cattle as this makes the trailer look like an open area,, and the curve doesn’t allow for them to see behind them..

You are so quick with the handling system! It amazes me even though i know you are very well practiced!

That went pretty well. Great job surprising Jess. You are awesome.

You should think about weighing the weaners when they come off the trailer in the finishing barn. The cacophony of sheep, you’ve heard of goat yoga, you’ve got sheep aerobics.

I just KNEW it would be Mark. But, that would be a gift for you, Sandy.

I love Dr. Grandin!

Hey Sandi, love your posts. It’s so satisfying and interesting to watch, really inspiring and love the way everyone gets their hands into it. I should start something similar to what you are doing.

Hi Sandy, I love your life so much I am from the Sultanate of Oman. I am a student at Sultan Qaboos University Study history And I have some sheep and goats. Thank you so much for my videos on KZread daily. I miss you a lot when you don't send a clip

Awesome Sandi. You have some beautiful daughters! Take after you! 😜😁😎

That was harder than by yourself last time. But lots more lambs this time. Good looking animals

Hi Sandi. Love the videos and I appreciate the captions you post pointing out things that I would have otherwise missed!

I just love when you try to make them go one way and they turn around and come back. Lambs are smart.😂😂🤓

Cute surprise for Jess! I love those type of surprises!! Can’t wait to learn more about it.

Wow, those are beautiful weaning lambs! Look how big they are!!

Job well done ladies.Great piece of shepherding.lol.

Have you thought of using Kelpie's to help move the sheep. They are herders and will do it naturally at seven weeks. While hubby is here in Oz he should check them out.

This video sounds like a busy street when families sometimes get separated. "Mum?" "Kids?" "Mum!" "Kids!" You did really well. Lambs can be hard to handle on separation day. Great video.

Hi again SANDI Nice group of lambs! Nice for you to have the extra help especially with your daughter. A special surprise made all that help not so bad huh!!! You're a great shepherd but even a better Mama Sandi! Thx as ways for sharing...

The bottle babies look great!! you wouldn't know they haven't had a sheepy mum they are soo chubby and healthy 😍 love watching with my morning coffee, have a fantastic day 😁

I'v been watching your show, for the bird problem you might try a rubber snake and if that don't work try tying monofilliment fishiong line so it hangs over the chain but so it can't get caught in the geer. the best of luck, love your videos. I was a dairy farmer.

Maridith (this farm wife has you beat, little boo peep lost her sheep, she looked all over the bush found the sheep in the creek at the bottom of the step hill, her hubby landed on it, and she carried that sheep up hill both ways with out a brake

Ok. Not who I was thinking. I was kind of wondering if a trip had been cut short, but Jess seemed surprised and very happy.

So precious 💖. Wonderful surprise

I agree with you, if its family day, yes family works together!

That was a good hug.

Well you surprised her lol those babies were so funny when they saw the shadow 😂😂😂 I couldn't stop laughing or watching my granddaughter though I was nuts I told her come watch she also started laughing good time lol

Your dog looks like he wants to help.....? I have a herding dog I can send you.......he nips my feet at 3:34 am as I walk down the hall to the coffee pot on my way to work. LOL

I love your channel!!

The one getting trampled at 9:48 😂 poor little guy/gal, don't slip and try to keep up!

Sandi enjoyed this video great family time loved it !!!!! THANKS

Great surprise!

Maybe you could drape a tarp or a bit of hessian or something over the fence panel to stop the shadows?

Great video great job Ladies

Great family time nice job.

Great surprise for your daughter!! You rock!!

I love your videos, and seeing your daughters working alongside their Mom is so rewarding in today's generation. It warms my heart. Please congratulate and thank them for helping Mom from time to time. They will remember it the rest of their lives with the greatest of love. They obviously are very intelligent and of course they are very pretty. Mothers never fire daughters, and daughters never fire mothers, they are there for each other forever.
