ABOUT ME
I’m 33 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 s a Police Officer 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 1200 breeding ewes.
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 KZhead and decided I could have a go and now here we are!
Since starting The Sheep Game I have met Lizzy and had two incredible boys Jock and Angus. You will see them all on this channel!
Thanks for watching my videos and please subscribe if you want to see more in future.
Your mom sounds SOO patient "you've locked me in the lamb shed" Cammy, your mom is a saint! Is Lizzy away from home? 💕💕
Agreed! A saint!!
Hopefully Cammy will read this as youtube drop my comments about 30 places down the list, It could be swayback, Copper deficiency causes a condition in newborn lambs known as enzootic swayback. Lambs are typically normal at birth but develop hindlimb paresis or paralysis within a few weeks. The neurologic deficits are caused by a dystrophic demyelination of the white matter in the spinal cord.
Sounds like multiple sclerosis. I'm retired nurse who's been loyal (addicted) to Sandi Brock for 4 1/2 yrs. I suspect joint ill because of delay between birth & spray to umbilical site. Can't see solution unless Cammy gets more helping hands❤
@@elainerempel1613in lambs? Come on! Most likely cause is a Selenium deficiency, other nutritional deficiencies, or joint ill. If you’d actually watch Sandi, you’d know that! 🤦🏼♂️
@@jessehachey2732 I was responding to Tony's comment about demyelination of the white matter. I'm a retired nurse who has watched Sandi for 4 1/2 years & as I said, I suspect joint ill. I'm sorry you feel it necessary to doubt my comment.💕💕
I can't belive you don't have way more likes.. Yes you show the ugy,dirt,grit,blood sometimes death.. But it shows how badly you fight for each one of your sheep & lambs. The sweet relationship you have with you loyal dogs, and the amazing loving relationship you have with your family. Everytime I watch your kids or nephews I just smile, you are allowing them to be boys.. Getting dirty, bonking themselves and basically telling them what most of us parents tell our kids.. Get up try again!! ❤❤❤ But you are so pretty funny as well.. You can't hold a 🎶 & you don't care lol youre living & loving your life and allowing us to come along. I enjoy every minute ❤❤
Me personally, I like hearing Cammy sing 😅 ... it's pure joy in that moment and keeping him sane. And I absolutely agree that there should be waaaay more likes considering the number of views! I automatically like before watching because I don't want to forget or for YT to skip to the next video.
Hello Cammy and Lizzie Your mom is a gem. “You’ve locked me in the lamb shed”. Calm as all day. 😂 Blessings ❤ ~Linda
Oh Cammy you little brat, locking mum in the sheep shed! 😂🤣 She was so calm………hmmmmm almost like she’s had tricks like this played on her before. What a good sport she is, a real sweetheart. Great video Cammy! Love how some sheep are just determined to be moms and will steal. 😂. ❤❤
Your poor mother 😂😂,you better buy her some flowers😂❤
Or an escape hatch! 💕💕
Hope you remembered to go and let your mum out of the lamb shed 😮 I'm sure she found it funny once she was freed. Spot is doing good. Love the progress in this lambing. 👏🐑🤩
Thank you for all the great videos of lambing. Even though it started out bad. It just so beautiful to see all those beautiful babies. I get a double dose with you and Sandi Brocks. Two of my favorite lambing people. Grat job and beautiful sheep.
Great vidio Cammy, it's so lovely to see all is good in the field with the lambs. What a difference the better weather makes. I hope Jock is okay after his trip back to the hospital, and Lizzy is looking so well 😊. Oh, and Lizzy, your lambs are just adorable. i hope the rest of your flock lamb safely. 💜 x
Thank you for another beautiful day! I'd get a little more frustrated with those pinchers than you do, but that just demonstrates your patience and experience! The little lambs are so pretty! I hope that your mom had a chance to get some rest while she was in the shed. She's a gem for sure. Looking forward to tomorrow already.❤
What a difference the weather makes ! , great stuff as usual Cammie and Lizzie, some good looking lambs, Spot coming along well, hardest time to learn with ewes and lambs.
We're ABSOLUTELY loving these vlogs and the fed by farmers podcasts Cammy! Soaps are oot the windie!!😂 Also getting merched up! Still got my first thank you card with Lizzie, wee Jock and Yourself from my Very first order. 👌🏻 Just ordered a FBF hoodie this evening too! Keep up the fantastic work to the whole team!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 All the very best from Diane and Stevie! ❤👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 ps. Where the "Flock" are you gonnae get all the deer 🦌? 😉🤣🤣
Your Mom is one in a million. She is so supportive. Spot is really learning well. I noted another little puppy on yesterday’s vlog. Is that a sheepdog in training.? Great vlogs Cammy. I loved seeing the auction. So good to see men congregating together and fellowshipping together. Great culture.
Brilliant vlog as always Cammy, favourite part is always Jock Cam especially when he is fly enough to nick the camera behind his daddy’s back & he’s an ex polis 😜. Your poor mother locked in the pet lamb shed, it could have been worse she could’ve been locked in their with you and your camera. Maybe that’s what we need a Q&A vlog with your mum & Lizzy with Jock recording it on Jock cam, how is he after his hospital trip? I take it he is on his way to recovery, I hope they didn’t say for him to be off his feet because we all know that won’t happen. Lizzy is looking good. Sending love to you all Cammy & Family from Granny Izzy from the burbs of Glasgow 🏴🏴🏴🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
I really love your videos! Thanks for putting in the time and energy to film this for us!
Loving the Jock Cam action! Little legend proper job my ansum!
"Such a sheep thing to do" If ya didn't laugh, you'd be crying! I hope the wee lambs recover from the joint ill Glad you carry a "first aid" kit with you💕💕💕
What a perfect way to end the day by watching your channel
I would say that many of the problems that are occurring anywhere there was an extensive amount of moisture allowed bacteria to really hang on as well as washing valuable nutrients like copper out of the soil profile just as the grass began to get long enough to eat and even changing soil pH in places so that the grass couldn't take up necessary nutrients to pass on through the milk. Calcium or copper deficiency as well as joint ill is absolutely credible.
I love the call from mom. You locked her in the pet lamb shed...if your family is anything like mine...that story will become part of the family legends...
The hood GP introduced me to your channel. You have educated me to sheep farming and now I a dedicated follower.
poor little lamb. Almost acts like it's had a pint too many, LOL.
Loving your vlogs Cammy, new watcher but hooked! Thanks for the entertainment the good the bad and the ugly it makes me appreciate what farmers do for us all even more ❤
Idea? Maybe you should put the pincher in a pen? 💕💕
Your videos always brighten my day 😊
OMG, I haven't laughed so hard in ages! Those thieving ewes are hilarious and you chasing after them but they keep coming back! SO funny! Laughed till I greeted (gret?)!🤣🤣🤣
No way funny if the original mum abandons the lamb after being chased off
This season is bringing out the silver fox in you cammy 😏😆
He's going grey to prepare for his baby girl's arrival.
@@pamsweeney1171 😆 so true!
Thank you Cammy for another great video. I don’t have a problem understanding your accent, but I worked with Engineers from all over the world. I’m learning more about sheep from you and Lizzie as I know more health wise about dogs,horses, goats, and cattle. My area of expertise is conditioning for showing.
Randomly came across your videos and I love them. Fellow Scot too
Thanks Cheryl!
Hilarious watching you trying to get the lambs to stay with the right mums, and then drive away the ‘stealers’! Sandi has a similar problem when there’s a few newborn lambs and way too many ‘mums’ claiming them! Strong mothering instincts I guess. Loving your videos thanks Cammy.
5.30am in New Zealand the day after ANZAC day. Great start to the morning Cammie, thank you. 🇳🇿
Can you tell me what ANZAC Day is please. I think it may be a national celebration of some sort. Thank you.
@@lunosgrandma8345. ANZAC stands for Australia New Zealand Army Corps. It is the day, once a year where we remember all lives lost in all wars that New Zealand and Australia have been involved in. A day to celebrate our freedom and those that gave so much for it.
@@deedawson6074Thank you, I was wondering, too. We have the same type of holiday here- Memorial Day. (USA)
@@lunosgrandma8345 Look up the Gallipoli campaign world war 1. Anzac Day initially was to remember the thousands of Aussies and Kiwis that were slaughtered. Now it’s for all our soldiers. Every ANZAC day services are held at dawn .
@@lunosgrandma8345 It’s their equivalent to Remembrance Day (Nov 11th, moment of silence on the 11th hour, of 11th day, of 11th month) in Canada 🇨🇦, where we remember the fallen of all the wars…or equivalent to Memorial Day in the US….
A favourite old tree of mine (middle of the field) at the start of the blog.
So good to see that the weather has improved, everything is looking beautiful and the problems are much less! How dare you lock your mom up, 😂! I think you need a roll of snow fence, do you have the plastic mesh fencing over there? You could have some on the bike to make impromptu gates!💕🇨🇦
Saw your dog encounters made the Scottish parliament debate floor…..making waves Cammi…..lol
Enjoy it? Absolutely addicted to it 😅 ... ❤
I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate these lambing videos! My partner and I took over a farm and this year is our first year lambing. We have limited experience so it's been a massive learning curve! We started lambing a few days after you, so following along with you has been fantastic for picking up tips and tricks and just for reassurance. Thank you!
Cammy how could you possibly lock your mum in the shed oh boy I bet she felt like giving you a thick ear 😂😂😂😂 and the thought of Wee Jock finding her there in the morning 😂😂 You’re mum is simply the best ❤
Definitely enjoying the lambing videos, the good and the bad. Love the shots of the ewes with their lambs. Can't get enough of that.
Your mam still love ya Cammy 🤣🤣
So funny that you locked your ma in the shed! Hubby’s Tupping time T shirt came! Fab quality & super fast shipping! 😊
Oh the difference good weather makes! So far as the lambs off their feet, I could say I've heard you explain that you don't need to dip the cords when they are born in the field. And I've heard Sandi say she does need to dip because they are indoors, and the sooner she dips, the better, or else they get joint ill. Perhaps the weather has created so much mud, that it's much dirtier this year and that's why they are off their feet? Just one fan's thoughts based on learning from you!
Thank you for sharing!❤
Hi cammy and family lovely weather cute animals 😊❤
Hope the little lamb will be ok,, thought he was dead but a bit of care and he was back on his feet ❤
Hey Cammy !! .. such a wonderful blessing day and I really appreciate it and enjoy watching your lifestyle documentary video channel and as always beautiful sharing adventure and you doing such an amazing job !! .. million thanks again from Montreal QC Canada
Love the vlog, Cammy! Thanks for sharing.
When we had lambs like that it was usually a shortage of selinium. a vit E/selinium shot at birth usually took care of it.
You are my highlight of the day thanks xxxx
Keep two separate fields next to each other and move the lambed mums and lambs as soon as they’ve lambed to the one field….. if you haven’t enough fields then divide a field with an electric fence?
Farm sales are alike the world around. The men in my family have spent hours at farm sales.
Just got to say how much I enjoy the guitar music that is played in your Vlogs
Love the videos thanku for bringing us along
😊How about keeping the ‘pincher’ as a permanent nanny in your shed , for the sickly lambs, orphans . Like a border hen in the coop ?
L love your views over there. It’s so beautiful. One baby and two moms. Taking a break and going to a sale. Jockissocute as always. Oh no, thelittlelambis not walking good. He’s too sad and hope the mom will help her baby. He is a cute lamb. Oh no, youlockedyourmom inthelambshed🤪 thank you Cammy🥰. Love these pics at the end as so nice❤️👍
The problem with thieves is they have no milk
Those Cheviot ewes & their lambs need English Learning Lessons 🤣🤣Total chaos! 💕💕
Glad the Lamb with the wobbly legs is feeling better
What a great marketing idea!!!! People who buy your merch on your website to motivate others to do the same!!! Smart!!! Did Lizzy think that up! 😄
What a great video. You guys probably don't think about it as you're all business and tired out of your brain this time of year but a snippet of video showing lambs happily playing or snoozing in the paddock would be very welcome enjoyment for us city folk and feel positive. Wishing Lizzy comfort and rest at this time.
I had to laugh as you were saying no, no no. - Weve all done it - however I did not have a Spot to help. Just noticed you had an Ad in your video - youll get paid for this one yeah!
Learn how platforms work! Just because you see an ad is in no way an indicator that he’s getting ad revenue! KZhead will still show ads even when they demonetized a video! They’ll just pocket the creators’ share…🤦🏼♂️
Awww.... you know your Mom is such a pet! Understandable!
I AM SOOO EXCITED CAMMY AND LIZZY…..I GOT MY THE SHEEP GAME JUMPER TODAY!!! Amazing delivery time too. Well done Cammy can see the mums’ know what you’re telling them to do and the lambies😊😊😊too. Jock is so 🥰. AND POOR MUM, fancy locking her up in the kiddie pen😅😅😅.❤️🇦🇺🏴
wow. thank you for sharing
GOOD EVENING CAMMY JUST POURING OUT OF THE HEAVENS IN CO CORK SOUTHERN IRELAND
Gotta love the quiet shade thrown by Lizzie when detaching the bike.
Thanks for the daily Vlog Cammy.
Love your videos Cammy!! You locking your mom in the shed was hilarious!! ❤️🐑❤️
I'm watching laughing at the pincher moms but I know it can be frustrating. Spot turned out to be a good sheep dog! Great video Cammy.
I love these videos I could watch you all day.
Cammy I think you should try and keep your little lambs out of the local Pubs! They just don’t walk right the next day!
lol locking Mom in the lamb shed too funny sounds like something my husband would have done.
"Why don't the two of ewes walk away?" Good One Sammy :)
Once again great video 😊loved it
love this and the view of the countryside
Love watching you & Spot sorting ewes ... Maybe the next winter activity will be gate building ...
On sandi’s videos, the one’s stealing are usually laboring or about to begin
Great video as always Canny. Your Cheviot ewes look really well but if you think they are lamb thieves then wait until you have finished with your Llyens, I found them a night mare for stealing lambs and with more multiples it’s really hard to sort out. . Good luck with the rest of lambing.
Your Cheviots are determined to muck you about by looks of it. The pens are useful but are too far apart. Maybe you could set up six spread around the field so that you don't have such a hike to a pen when on your rounds.
well done young cammy hope wee jock is all right
Great video Cammy as always 👌
I AM enjoying your videos!
Hope you remembered to go and let your mum out of the lamb shed 😮 I'm sure she found it funny once she was freed. Spot is doing good. Love the progress in this lambing. 👏🐑🤩
I shouldn’t have laughed when you were trying to sort out the Lambs to go with the proper Mothers, but it was funny 😁
Lamb could have drunken lamb syndrome.ask your vet.thoroughly enjoy watching your lambing videos 👏🐑🏴👍
You’ve locked me in the lamb shed.😂😂😂 It was so funny that I replayed it 4 times!! 😆
thank u cammy ur the best
Nice one Cammy
A boy Cammy another good video 👍. Those cheviots are hard work to lamb outside with all the stealing. They're an indoor job. You nearly gave birth trying to lift off the quad trailer 😂😂😂
The wee lamb looks like it has ataxia, so it could be a mineral deficiency involved. Copper is a deficiency found in sheep if your land is copper deficient.
Spot has been doing a great job recently, how is ferne doing or should i not ask😅😬
Omg the lambs and mums stealing one another was hilarious 😂
great video
Thank you so much for your wonderful videos. I am thinking that little lamb might need a dose of Selenium.
Good video 👌
You had me laughing out loud talking to the lamb stealers. Look forward to your videos
I could also be that lamb got hurted, its hard to know. They usually go down on the back legs first with sway back.
Can't believe you locked your mum in a shed 😂 belter. Your videos make me laugh calling a sheep an "awkward boot " brilliant cammy 😂 till the next video 👌🫶
😅 thankfully she had her phone!
I enjoy all of your content. “A day in the life of Cammy Wilson.”
Oh your poor Mum 😂 Love how relaxed she was about it
❤ you are a dear sweet son to lock your mom inside the pet barn. Oh my God you make me laugh my head off and forget my problems. Thank you and tell your mom I love her too. I adore hearing all the things to go through your head and come out your mouth you are so funny, it makes me forget my problems and even bigger problems that we have here in my country. Continue to share your stories and your life with us because I’m sure you have no idea how much you are doing for the rest of us who have sadness, losses and troubles, God bless you and Lizzie and Spot, the wonder pooch; and of course Jock. I’m so happy and elated to see Jack is learning some new words besides no he said delightful and beautiful young man and I’m sure he will turn into a gentleman once he gets over his terrible twos you and Lizzie have the patience of Job I raised five children, and they were sometimes very trying. But now that they are grown and productive and they even take me out to lunch once in a while I’m so grateful that it took the time to do the best I could for them. God bless you and thanks again you guys are amazing 🤩
I would up your Cheviot numbers to 5000 and phase out all the rest. They’d be in the right condition all year round and you could start selecting for what you want and don’t want and sell breeding ewes and rams.
Hi 5:35 New Zealand 🇳🇿
