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 850 breeding ewes. I shore over 19,000 sheep this season in the UK and have my own shearing run which lets you see many different farms in the summer months. 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 YouTube and decided I could have a go and now here we are!
