Sheep Farming: How To Be More Profitable With Sheep - Keep It Simple!
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
Today at Ewetopia Farms, we decided to pass on our philosophy of how to become more profitable and sustainable with sheep. And that is to keep it simple! It may not be what people want to hear but it has worked for us over the years. We discuss a multitude of topics from feeding sheep, breeding sheep, ultrasounding sheep, purchasing equipment, weaning sheep, terminal sires, being handy, growing your own feed, and having good sheep. And having good quality sheep is the key to it all. If you want to be a sheep farmer, your number one investment should be your sheep. They are what will determine your income, lifestyle and profitability in farming. Everything else stems from them and should be about looking after them as simply, efficiently, and cost effectively as possible in order to gain the most from your investment. These are all derived from our personal experiences and are meant to offer alternatives or solutions for someone wanting to get into sheep from scratch. All farmers have individual goals and goals that may not reflect our goals. So it is not meant as gospel or the only way to do things. It is simply passing on of our opinions as to how we have done things on our sheep farm and what has worked for us. With that in mind, I hope you enjoy this video.
Sheep and sheep farming is our passion and we hope that the love we have for what we do is obvious to you the viewers. Our operation is a large scale, purebred seed stock sheep farm combining the best of pasture and confinement to manage the flock for maximum comfort, minimal stress, and producing a consistent, very high quality product.
I hope you enjoy this video. If you would like to follow along with us and experience life on a real live sheep farm on a daily basis, please subscribe do that you don't miss a single episode! It doesn't cost anything to do so and you can cancel at any time. I think some people think that subscribing costs or locks you into something. All it does is notify you when I post a new video. I felt it may be helpful to clarify that because from talking with people in person, I don't think a lot of people realize that about pushing the subscribe button. Thank you for taking the time to watch! We love to hear from you so be sure to leave a comment as well.
Thank you!

oh boy, You 2 should be so proud. I see your hard work daily, your educaiton and ability to share your education with all of us. I see the pride in ownership in your farm, right down to the water fountains. I just know how much work goes into this farm. My father was a grain farmer in Montana, so I learned about work ethic, pride of ownership, ability to live within your means and plan for the upcoming possible drought or whatever. farming always has surprises around the corner. You both deal so well together with all of this. Yet you maintain respect for each other, and share some humor along the way. Farmers used to be considered "dumb farmers" because they didn't become college educated etc. My gosh they don't know farmers. Farmers are so much more than just farmers, they are mechanics, project managers, accountants, chemists, agronomists, salesmen, and yes first of all family men and women usually. thank you for putting yourself out there for all of our entertainments.

Good morning Arnie and Lynn. So interesting to hear how you guys function so well keeping your farm profitable. The biggest thing I have noticed on your videos is that you want to stay profitable but you also take great care of your flock. Keeping them healthy and happy. Your sheep are so beautiful. And I always hear the care in your voice for the animals in your care. That is so heartwarming. The little guy in the feeder was so funny. He was resting and eating. The little dickens. The lamb with the fluffy ears was so lovely and of course Seymour is perfectly handsome. Thanks for all you do. Big hugs. ❤️❤️

Good morning Patricia! You have to at least break even if you want to have animals otherwise both you and them will suffer. Being profitable at it means that you also have healthier, happier sheep as well. Because a well run farm takes sheep care as a number one priority - you don't have a sheep business without the sheep after all! Having nice sheep that you can interact with on a daily basis is the ultimate reward to becoming a good farmer!
I believe your way of weaning is so much healthier for both lambs and moms.

Lynn, I don't understand the haters. It makes no sense to criticize you for having big sheep because you take care of them, which of course you would want to ask more for them. I understand that they go by the pound in Canada. I watch you and Sandi Brooks, and that's how her sheep are bought; by the pound, so it makes no sense for the haters to write. I guess that's their hobby. Makes you wish they'd get another one.

Yes, market lambs are bought by the pound. We also sell breeding stock which is sold according to their quality.
Good, common sense info. I am not a sheep farmer, I raise goats here in Kentucky. When we set out to relocate to this state I knew we were going to go with either sheep or goats, depending on the land we ended up with. We have little pasture, lots of brush and hills. The land said "goats". But the basic philosophy still applies, the least amount of input equals a more profitable output.

Another extraordinary video. Very informative. I found your final point, about buying those "bargain sheep" as one of the most interesting points. I think that I got lucky with my first herd, but in that case I didn't pay a bargain price. The person selling the sheep only had a small flock for training his border collies, but otherwise sheep weren't high on his priority list, but he loved the look of the registered animals. He was going to have surgery and be unable to care for the sheep so decided to sell and then buy more once he was recovered. There are lots of things I'd do different from the beginning if I had it to do over, but I think I still would have purchased the sheep from him. (Just not ALL of them!). Thank you again for sharing. I think if that redo button was available, a lot of what I've gleaned from you would be part of my decisions I might make. But I'm still quite happy with what I have, including the things I learned by experiencing them. For example, the mistakes I made with Ram #1 have, so far, not been mistakes with Ram #2. Luckily for me I'm not trying to make a living with the sheep. I'm trying to get them to pay their own way, but mostly it's just a very expensive hobby.

But it is always nice if your hobby pays for itself! 😉 No one wants to lose money. And learning from failures or mistakes is priceless! However, if you can get a few tips along the way, it can save a lot of problems long term. 🙂Some people getting out of sheep have fantastic animals. I was more referring to those who were struggling with them or no longer enjoying having them. Those sheep often bear the brunt of an unhappy farmer and show corresponding health issues.
Hello Arnie and Lynn. I grew up in Africa with lots of sheep, and other animals in farm. Came to US and doing well for myself. There is this void in my life and it is in evitable that I do have to be connected with earth, I live in Bay area, and land is ridiculously expensive, everything is expensive :) but, I am ready mentally physically and financially I just want to start small and fill that farm void in me.

Super vlog Lynne and Arnie whether a person is an experienced shepherd, consider sheep farming or just a You Tube junkie. On all levels plenty to think about. The point about being Jack of all trades, growing your own feed etc is critical. What percentage of your lambs go to market for meat as opposed to being retained for replacement stock or onsold as breeding stock?

Knock on wood, but all our females go as breeding stock or pets. About 30-50 rams go on to other homes. So probably 2/3s of rams are market lambs

Breeding a maternal breed of ram to a maternal ewe allows you to retain and sell replacement ewes. It would seem like your straight Dorset market lambs would have very acceptable carcass quality. Buyers don't pay enough of a premium for heavily muscled carcasses. Maternal traits are where most of the money is made.

I would politely disagree. All our customers are concerned with meat qualities as that is what the market demands. It is not how many sheep fit on the trailer but how much weight is on the trailer. 🙂
I’m confused how do you guys make profit with the sheep if you raise them on feedlots with minimal pasture? If you have to buy the feed I’d assume you’d have to sell the meat for a very high price. Or do you grow the hay yourself?
@EwetopiaFarms
Жыл бұрын
We pasture in the summer. We grow all our own feed. Our lambs are fast growers so get to market quickly. We have high quality sheep so get good prices and we sell mainly registered sheep as breeding stock so they are not just commercial meat sheep. However, lots of people are raising commercial sheep 100% in confinement and make profit in the meat market. Indoor sheep tend to grow faster and are not affected by parasites, inclement weather conditions and slow growth rates typically associated with pasture systems so can usually have money in their pockets quicker.

If so what’s the best way for me to get in contact with yall?
