Is there a new BIG MAMA in town?? ...how many lambs are in there?? Vlog 806

We are officially into wheat harvest, which means a little overlapping for me as a sheep farmer.
We sorted our last ewes weaned in June, using data and a physical evaluation to decide who stays, and who must go.

Wheat harvest has begun quite well, with only one plug of the leg... thankfully, for once not my doing.

AND... I stumbled across a gorgeous ewe who looks to be carrying quite the litter of lambs!!
She's still got 24 days to go... will she make it??

I’m guessing 5 babies! And in my opinion, people need to worry about their own dogs, not Piper! She obviously loves helping with everything!

[tiffymcconkey]

I get so tickled at Lucy sleeping on her back, it's the cutest thing ever😂😂. I'm pretty sure if Piper was causing trouble or issues with the ewes/lambs, Sandy wouldn't allow her in the barn. Sandy you are doing a phenomenal job, don't worry about the negative comments.

A day spent with Sandi, is always a great day :) happy Tuesday everyone

Gives me hope for the world to know that Mark & Sandi are sustaining their soil's fertility with crop rotation, cover crops & composted manure.💕💕

[FlufferKnots]

If her decisions are not affecting your personal life, leave sandy alone! She is incredibly sweet and kind. And you who judge her any different, really need to look in the mirror first!

Piper is a farm dog. Those people who give you grief about it should take a step back and it's obvious they've never lived on a farm. Every farm dog I've had in my life does the same as yours. I say Pbbbht! to the naysayers.

A big THANK YOU to the dedicated farmers. We couldn't live without you.

I was raised on a farm west coast usa. We always had animals for pleasure and for adding food to the table. So, I'm here to talk about Piper. I think that Piper follows her big sister's in the barn and is learning a great deal from them. She gets along well with the sheep and even tries to herd them like big sister Kinsey(even though she's a little). She's learned to stay out of the way of vehicles and has Lucy's affinity for being around and under foot when Sandi trims sheep hooves...😂. The thing is: she's a farm dog, and she does what farm dogs do, and she's good at her job and is loved by all her sheep friends and family. So, for a viewer to speculate as to her fitness and barn qualifications is unnecessary and uncalled for. The only one that can do this is her family! ❤❤❤ Love you, Piper, and keep up the good work!

In this time after the pandemic, people have become so rude. Everyone feels that because of technology and the lack of face to face conversations, they can just say whatever they want to. We used to not want to hurt peoples feelings or not make a big deal about things. However….there is no one looking at you, so they say whatever. Just ignore those people because they don’t have a clue as to what your life is like on the farm. It’s just different from anything else. I grew up on a farm and live in the city now and it brings joy to my life to see what you do. Thank you 😘

So interesting when Mark explains the workings of the harvester!!

[judymckerrow]

Piper is still basically a puppy, she needs to learn, but I can see that sometimes she gets over helpful ? BUT she just needs to learn what is okay and what is not okay, she’ll get there. 🌺💚🙃

[marilyngardner]

So happy to see Jess doing so well. I ❤ her As ALWAYS love starting my day with you and all the adventures of the farm.

People need to grow up
Your farm
Your dogs
Your rules
Screw the rest of us

[beckystalter]

I’m always amazed out how much farmers like Mark are able to do around the farm on their equipment and buildings. My uncle was like was like that.

[janw]

Love the drone footage of the wheat being harvested

[saneminotaur]

Hard to believe it's been a year since Jess was sick; so glad she's still in remission, hope it stays that way <3

[charitywattenburger]

I love your family, your farm, and your sheep 🐑 very much! A morning with you is a fantastic day ahead.
But, it REALLY Upsets me when you say that “some viewers get mad when Piper is in the barn.”
First and foremost, it’s YOUR BARN, NOT THEIRS. And if you don’t care that Piper is in there, then so be it. It is just the Rudest thing for a viewer to say. She’s your dog (Jess’s), your barn, and your channel/social media.
I love that Mark gifted you a drone for Christmas 🎄 because I love watching the fields from above. I never thought I’d love to see someone in their field, but, the beautiful view of fields after processing, of any kind. The rows and the patterns are amazing and beautiful!!
You just keep being you and being so amazing!! ❤💜❤💜🐑🐶🐑🐶🐑

[corrinnamassey]

I think she's going to have 6, oh my lord have mercy!!!!

[ammievdm]

That was fantastic that it was her opening line "Is she having 7 lambs?" That TOTALLY was my reply on her Insta stories when she posted the first stories... that is CRAZY BIG mamma...

[barbgardiner]
