Thank you all for your guesses! It was so much fun to have every one involved and take the time to read all of your amazingly kind comments in the middle of season! Our first place guess is @tammibaker with 7.92! And second place is @tracybarger7822. With 7.85lbs! There were so many close guesses but no ties! Super excited to get these fleeces cleaned and to you guys!🎉
Congratulations!! I hope you show what you do with it!
Congrats tammi
Congratualatiins to tammibaker with 7.92! Enjoy!!!!
Congratulations, Tammi Baker!!!
Congratulations!
What a neat experience getting to feel the lamb react to the sheering. I bet that doesn't happen all the time since you reacted so excited!
It is pretty rare. Couldn’t believe I caught it for you guys. It’s amazing to feel too.
Awwww, she was a real sweetie
So cute to see the little baby moving around! ❤️
It's like you're performing a gentle dance with the animal. You're so kind to them. You do a fantastic job.
I love how gentle you are when shearing.
So gentle! Love how you handled the ewe.
That was one very relaxed ewe. Wow that fleece even has me wanting to spin it! Love your logo!
Wow what a large "lambs fleece" 8 plus pounds. Loved watching this video and how you were excited and showed us the movement from the baby. Wondering how close to lambing she is, with that huge udder. She seems like a very mellow lady.
As I've learned from @SheepishlyMe ... that udder "bloom" means she's within a few days of delivering. And that spa treatment might make it easy to maneuver for the birth (not to mention a hot summer with a little one attached)!
You’re so gentle with each animal you shear. It makes me heart go all fuzzy 🥰
Even when her clients don't fully cooperate.
The corn had me giggling. I guess she was saving some snacks for later!
😹😹😹
It took me a while on these videos to understand what she was referring to when she said they were keeping some snacks.
Poor mamma sheep but she did so good. I love seeing you and your work. So informative and you so sweet with the animals.
awwwww she was an absolute darling getting sheered! I hope her baby comes out healthy and that she recovers swiftly!
Looked like you tickled her when she kicked out. She behaved so well and just relaxed into you 👏👏👏
Your videos are literally restoring my faith in humanity
As a pregnant Mama that has to feel so much better not carrying all that around while she's pregnant! Great Job! ❤️❤️❤️
She’s going to feel so cool after this, and it’s so much cleaner when she gives birth too
Wonderful shearing. You are so careful and still so fast. Grand job ❤ that woolfleece is sooo nice and great for spinning. 👍
As a handspinner and fiber artist I really appreciate your fiber commentary. I sheared my own animals until arthritis made me stop and always got such a thrill to see gorgeous fleeces peel off. Now I watch you peel off gorgeous fleeces! Thanks so much!
"I'll call you back, they're doing some construction work or something outside" *bangs broom on ceiling*
Oh bless her heart…to be pregnant, full of baby and to be put into uncomfortable yoga poses..I was feeling like “Ohhh I’m gonna explode….” 😂🤣❤️ She’s beautiful and that fleece! Wow!
I was thinking that, but maybe she knows she's got a Texas summer coming up before she has that baby. The way she laid there after the salon time was up😅
Well... If she's anything like me, that yoga positions what got her pregnant in the first place. Hahaha 🤣
@@crystalcooper1358 😂🤣😂❤️
She is gonna be more comfy giving birth without all that fleece, especially with Texas heat.
Sheep have fewer lambing complications if they are shorn first.
So sweet!! Lamb is feeling the "tickle" of the vibration from the shears! Reminds me of when I was about 7 months pregnant with my 1st son.... we went to an airshow and I was standing right in front of a Harrier as it was lifting off... the vibrations were really strong and suddenly my son started kicking like crazy!! I showed Hubby and the people around me noticed and I ended up with a whole group of people laughing and watching as my stomach went bonkers!!! BTW---he turned out to be an awesome soccer player!!! LOL
That crimp! Lovely. I so much appreciate how much care you give the animals.❤
It's so relaxing to watch you do these cute sheep.
It never stops being entertaining how much the sheep are more-or-less totally chill about being moved about, potato sack style. I love these videos.
You were so gentle with this lady. Just a joy to watch you.
She was looking so comfortable & at you do lovingly. How sweet!!
Mom-to-be deserves a nice, relaxing Lavender bath after her trim!
I actually use your shearing technique to shave my dog puppy for summer, her coat came out really nice. She is a yorki, poodle, bedlington terrier mix and needs a good shave ever so often
KZhead started running your Shorts in my feed because I love animal-rescue and related type videos. First of all I love your gentleness with the animals. Plus your skill is amazing, you can do large swaths in one sweep and you're so careful around the extremities, face, etc. I appreciate your commenting, also, helps us understand some of the technicalities we are seeing. Thank you for publishing these videos. (P.S. I wish I was in as good a shape as you are, the results of such a physically-challenging profession!)
Thank you for taking such good care of these little critters! Wishing mama a safe delivery and a happy, healthy baby.
How wonderful, sweet and cure. Happiness happens when I watch this channel.
That neck fleece is so impressive. It looked like a foot of hair fell away from a 4 inch swipe.
this is amazing content. starts my day off right to watch something so peaceful
What a beautiful fleece and a great sheep!
Very cool. I recently took 138lbs of Cheviot fleece to the fiber mill. I can't wait to get it back and do some spinning.
I love watching you work with these animals. You are so gentle and they seem to trust you entirely. Enjoy your videos!
Congratulations to the winners! Hoping there will be another drawing in the future. Thank you for these videos. I love seeing the fiber!
Gorgeous! I didn't know sheep could produce fleece that was all crimped like that!
Love you videos. Enjoy watching the sheep just melt in your arms as you sheer them. You are so gentle with them. ❤❤
I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. I’m a city dweller and I don’t have any animals, but I love your channel. Keep up the good work!
That is a lovely fleece! She looks very happy now that the heat is coming a little babe or babes with be coming. How great! Thank you for shearing Katy! Love❤k
Ii truly enjoy your method of shearing. You try to take off the yearly growth in one peace while others dont do so, they chop here or there. I have tried watching others but it seems to me how much that is wasted. Oh and i like when you talk over the editing. Stay safe and drink plenty of water . God Bless you and your partner.
What amazes me is how you and your wife can spend that much time together and not want to choke each other by the end of the day. I love you both. And your shearing ain’t bad either.
I absolutely love y’all’s channel. Nd now that y’all have made the information available it’s even better. Also. I love the idea of shearing not for food production but materials that we ware. Thank You for all the kindness you both give to the Sheep. Stay safe.
Grumpy baby, that is bizarrely adorable lol
Nice shearing job. I'm sure the the Sheep appreciated its wool being taken off, making it lighter. Thank you.
Beautiful fleece and shearing!!
I really enjoyed this video. Not only was it longer, but you shared some interesting stuff. Thanks!
thank you for explaining all the shearing/sheep terms! i love learning about these things!
Love watching you guys! Thanks for giving us all a chance to play!
Oh, I think this was my favourite shear so far. How utterly exciting to watch this one! 🥰 Congratulations to the winners!
I love watching that long fleece peel off. Look at the crimp, wow.
Самое доброе и покладистые животное , спасибо за аккуратность и нежность к животным .
It's amazing that her little legs were holding up a baby and all that fleece!
털 깎는 영상들 많이 보는데 단언컨대 당신이 제일 최고입니당~ 편안하고 다소 거칠어 보이지만 부드럽게 리드하는 모습 아이들 아끼는 것두 느껴지구영 본인의 일을 즐겁게 생각하는 마음두 최고에영❤
Such lovely fleece ! I am touch by the care you take when shearing, mom, lama or big horn sheep !
Not only a fun video, but a beautiful ewe to boot.
“Saving Snacks for later” 😂😂
Gee...I admire you for the awesome work you do!! I am a knitter and know wool. Thank you!!!
I am really enjoying this new style of your videos.
Well done I have watched my friend and hubby shear sheep for the first time and it is so funny watching them one holding the other shearing lol But there's hair sheep that won't loose some bits and some other sheep... Farmer has a mixed herd of different kinds of sheep I will let him know about the hair sheep I'm not going to guess cuz I'm in Canada so good luck everyone
We all feel the relief for Momma Sheep in the shearing ❤. Such a Weight off 🫶😘😍🥰🇨🇦❤️
I LOVE the info you are giving us!!!!
Dude that looks awesome. My fiance and I have talked about one day owning sheep! But we move into our first soon so baby steps, loved the video+tips ❤
Look at that gorgeous fleece and the little mama to be!!!! 😍
You have been doing this job for a long time and I love the job ❤❤❤❤
I really enjoy your videos. Your very gental with the sheep. And other animals you sheer! Your very good at what you do too! Thanks for putting these videos up! :)
Sheep are amazing. Ty for explaining some details.
Love watching your videos i just was curious and i totally lost time and watch about 10 videos in a row and suddenly it was bedtime here in Holland (Europe) never thought i like watching this but the contact with you girls and the animals is absolutely amazing. I am a fan now😊🤙love from Myriam
Baby is going, "Hay, that's that load sound? I'm not coming out." Mom just goes, "Burr, there's a little chill now." That's some heavy wool.
Wonderful video. I’m loving this format a lot. What a gorgeous fleece and what a sweet ewe :) You have increased the quality of the video recording, haven’t you? Very excited to see the Ramboulliet!!! 😍
Thank you for narrating 💜.
I wish you post more clips 😊 love your videos ❤
I wish you had been close by when we had sheep. You are such an amazing sherrer
Love watching you so gentle, in uk they shear bottoms before lambing mating and some before birth of lambs
I love what you guys do 👍🏻👊🏻😍🥰🫶🏼😃
You have The Shepherdess from Tulsa's Philbrook Museum. How cool!
They must feel sooooo much cooler when done !
love the logo and front card!
You’ve got some gorgeous tats! I wanted to…waited too long and developed a bunch of autoimmune stuff so can’t do it now. Beautiful wool! When the lamb kicked that was wonderful!
oh that fleece is beautiful!
I was definitely not expecting you to find corn in there lol 😂
Love watching you shear. Up here in Oklahoma we have access to colored sheep from Kate Poster's farm at Get Stitching fiber shop.
Congratulations to the winner!
What a beautiful mama
Such a cute video
I’m drooling over that crimp.
“Got some corn back here.” I was expecting some gruesome insect that you get in the region, and it’s…corn!
Love your videos and your pretty tattoos!
That's so much heavier than I expected!!
me: waiting for a little explanation box to pop up after hearing 'she's got some corn back here'..... 3 seconds later: oh, like ACTUAL CORN :D
Good job Katie. 😁✂️
How absolutely beautiful!
Well it looks like I missed it, Maybe. Since I can't get y'all to mail me a big old double handful I guess I'll find it somewhere else. That was a beautiful place there that you just did. Thanks for the video and look forward to more
2:54 i was waiting for the pop up of a sheep definition for corn and then i saw and was "oh! Actual corn" 🤭🤭🤭
Wonderful fleece!
Wow , I was way off!! Can’t wait for next week! Those are the sheep we ranched in Del Rio before Amistad Dam took our land.
You are removing pains of sheeps. Thank you sir. Jesus Christ is always with you.
Great job guys
I have no idea why I'm here. For whatever reason, whether lambs or rams or cows or horses, I kinda enjoy the haircuts, the getting nails done, births or just being adorable animals. 😂😂😂😂
