THE HOOF GP takes a SHEEP FARMER trimming!
In this video I share with you all the day I spent hoof trimming with Graeme and Craig of The Hoof GP.
I'm really excited about this video and having the opportunity to not only learn a new skill but to work with a fellow KZread who is incredibly successful.
The Hoof GP is now a massive channel thanks to the genius of Graeme Parker and the fantastic way he share his passion for cattle hoof trimming with the world.
I hope you enjoy

ABOUT ME
I’m 31 years old and I’m a sheep farmer from Ayrshire in South West Scotland, which is why I have such a strong accent! I was born and raised on a sheep farm watching my dad who was the shepherd.
At 18 I went away from farming to work in the city (something I still do) and at 23 (2013) I decided I wanted to do something for some extra money so I went on a sheep shearing course. The hardest thing I’ll ever do was learning to shear sheep. [shudders thinking about it]
I shore whilst on my holidays from work for 2 years and then in 2015 my dad died so I decided to get my own sheep so I could continue working with sheep as it was something I loved doing. From there it escalated quickly from my first 4 sheep in my mum’s garden to now running around 600 breeding ewes.
I shore over 15,000 sheep this season in UK and I also travel to Norway for shearing in March and September. (Covid messed it up this year)
A few years ago I bought myself a sheep pregnancy scanner and have been building up my run since then.
I watched a few farm vlogs on KZread and decided I could have a go and now here we are!
Thanks for watching my videos and please subscribe if you want to see more in future.

All thats missing from this video is Tom Pemberton and then all my favourite British youtuber will be in the same video.. you guys really do show how us brits treat not only our pets but the farm animals as well. Good video now I've still got to watch the video from then hoof G.P haha
What a talented chap you are Cami ! Change of pace and cows don't bite.. The perfect teacher right there. Can't get better than that! Now Greame should visit your farm and try shearing sheep, yes? 🤪
Clearly Greame is a natural teacher. Patient, calm, informative. A really cool video.
When is the hoof GP going to swap his grinder for a hand piece and have a day at the shearing. You know it makes sense 😛
Oh dear…another farming KZread channel to follow. Totally addicted to the Hoof GP. I foresee the same happening here!

Thank you from all us beginners. This goes from "Graeme does" to watching someone else starting on it. Graeme is good with tools. It would be nice to see him try sheering.

Hello Cammie, I'm from the Hoof GP... you two made a great team!! Isn't Graeme a hoot!! Liked the video and will look into your stuff for a few. You seem a nice young man ( I'm over 65 so I usually so young man and even boy at times, no disrespect intended) I'm from Alabama in the US. Don't know a thing about sheep. Cows, horse's, Bulls, pig's ...we have all them here, haven't seen any sheep. Good luck with the cows hun. Take Care 👍👍
Yes, Graeme indeed is a gifted instructor and intuitive trimmer! Evidently, he can give much credit to his like-skilled father, yet it's obvious his love of the work has created an otherwise mundane/routine attitude into a passion. Thank you, Graeme for your loving and dedicated (and back-breaking) work to enlighten us all!
I love both your channels; it is good to see that you are friends. Both of you do an excellent job with your videos and you Scottish boys have entertained and taught this old Alabama man a lot!

Fantastic to see you both in the same video!! Now you need to do a collaboration with Sandi. I think you did a fantastic job. And you are right thousands of people would love the opportunity to work with Graeme.

Great collab video. Graeme makes using that knife look easy, but I bet he'd struggle to shear a sheep 🤣 kudos to you Cammie for trying something new, especially if you're scared of cows!

Here from the Hoof GP!! After watching Sandi's channel (Sheepishly Me) as she does hooves & Charlie shears, I can just imagine how much different going from sheep to cows must be. But such a need experience.
I first saw you on the Hoof GP and then heard Sandi Brock talk about you, so I had to look up "The Sheep Game". I love watching you, Lizzie and your sheep. Can't wait to see your little baby. I live in Ontario about three hours drive from where Sandi is.

Well done! What Graeme demonstrated was an artist’s eye, a craftsman’s skill, and a teacher’s instruction and encouragement. He also guided you through how the tools work, instructed you on their correct uses, and made triply sure both you and that beautiful cow were safe as could be. I’ve always appreciated how the hoof knife works, but this time I got to see the reasons behind how it works. This was a great crossover - did you get to work on more than one cow?

Your video's are so relatable, that's why people love them so much, the small clip at the start of this video when your getting dragged by the sheep while trying to catch it was a moment that I can relate to so well, but your style is heaps better than mine you look like your John Travolta on a dance floor in Grease Lighting, so talented anyhow my neighbour as informed my I have 35 of my sheep at his place so I must head over and retrieve them.. Thanks for the video.
Hello from Texas. Just saw you on the hoof gp. Looking forward to learning about your business.
Was fun to see so intent doing something way outside your comfort zone. Was also interesting to be able to hear the differences in your accents. I’ve watched virtually every video on both your channels and seeing them come together was surreal. Thanks for that video.
You did great!!!! It's crazy it was your first time!
