Keep in mind many of us in your audience, are not farmers but we’re here to learn more about our food. I remember your A flock is pedigree Lleyns, and your B flock mums are for producing lamb for the food chain. It would be helpful to show your different tups side by side, and then compare their lambs side by side and explain how you can distinguish their sires based on the differences us non farmers aren’t yet cued in to notice. Still, I’m tickled your ewes and lambs are doing so well, after the floods and continual wet.

Impressive weight gains the Suffolk seems a good cross with the lleyn hope the full time farming works out ok 👍

Those lambs look great! Great job Will and great video.

I started lambing in march with Dutch spotted sheep and they were about 15-20kg love the vids keep it up

[parishsuffolks]

Great lambs l think it's fair 2 sa there s room for a Suffolk ram in every flock no matter what you breed preferences u will find your Suffolk cross will b first in your wallet so enjoy them they won't b around for long great video

What super lamps, well done, great to see them growing so well.

[saragayle]

Great video, the lambs are looking so good ❤

[KenMcKinnon-cr]

Great info. Scientific approach does provide reliable evidence of the best breeding.

[ronaldlucas]

Interesting to see your comparison. The drone shots showed how bad your fields were wet and some fields still under water.

[joyceedhammerschmith]

Interesting and informative. I have to use subtitles but are still having trouble of clints and cleans?? Maybe you could run the final video and see what we get with the accent and transitions.

You normally introduce your offsider. Who are you working with today?

[Salomaeful]

Great video - I'm curious to know whether the best performers were all singles?

[connellaing-goqk]

Have u looked at a nice proformance recorded Hampshire? We are blown away with with the ease of lambing and growth rates when crossed to Perth type blackface ewes running the hill ground

[harrymclachlan]

Charollaise sheep will get you a better shape easily with the right breeder 😊

[colinwientjens]

On the current growth rate, how long till you’ll be turning them off?

[rogerbarnfield]

Good vlog one thing I want to ask are they all twins are a mix of twins an singles because a single will have a lot more milk to go at than a set of twins

[raymondwarrington]

Hi Will, did you weigh the lambs individually at birth or just use an average weight?

[thomasevans]

Those 32kg need to be sold worth 140 at that weight

You have to admit that that the Aberblack Lambs are Suffolk Lambs are far better than your Clun Lambs Will. Kiwi Shayne in the UK 👌
