Today's Video talks about 3 challenges to pasture based farming: sheep and chickens! This vlog provides a short recap on some summer happenings on my Dorper sheep farm. I run a flock of both registered and commercial Dorper EWES and rams in East Texas. My sister runs a flock of heritage breed white Delaware Chickens. I answer the question: "What are the top 3 challenges you face when raising sheep on pasture?". Also in this video are snippets from a recent opportunity I had to be a guest on the Shark Farmer Podcast.
Thanks for watching!

This rancher made his handling system for cattle using an old GRAIN SILO! This video summarizes the process of working cattle in East Texas with Regenerative Rancher, Karl Ebel. This herd was worked in a corral handling system that was customized using a grain silo. He used the grain silo with his existing corral to create a circular handling system for his cattle. The grain silo was used to eliminate many of the corners within his corral, creating a smooth handling system for his livestock. The day began at 8am and within 4 hours all 240 head of cattle had been worked. The working included: weaning, castration via banding, worming, and vaccination.
Mr. Karl Ebel is located in East Texas, actively working to restore a portion of his acreage to native, tall-grass prairie. His efforts have been successful and, in place of hay, his herd grazes a native grass stockpile throughout the winter. He operates a year-round rotational grazing system for his cows to avoid overgrazing and to restore soil health.

Why are beef ranchers going broke if the price of beef at the grocery store is going up? Shouldn't beef cattle generate a profit if the price of meat is at an all time high? This video gives some insights on the state of the beef supply chain in 2022.

Why am I telling you all of this?: 7:29
In the United States there are 2.04 million ranchers, 26,586 feed lots, 4 major meat packers, and 355 million consumers. The crisis in the beef cattle industry is a result of a centralized meat packing system. This video gives you an explanation of how the meat supply chain works, what the consumer can do to help, and how you can still make a profit off of beef cattle in 2022.
While my last two videos have been a departure from the typical “farm life” content, the information they contain are important. As much as we need to know how to farm, we must also know why we farm.
Thanks for watching!

This video breaks down the gross revenue potential that sheep and beef cattle provide for my 23 acre farm business. As you watch this video please remember that it directly applies to my sheep farming business. Use it as inspiration for your farm business, but understand that it is not a copy and paste solution for you. I originally planned to sell grass fed beef for profit, but after crunching the numbers I found that their smaller cattle counterpart (sheep) provided 400% greater revenue potential and 200% faster return on investment.
My farm is a Dorper Sheep breeding stock operation. I am located in upper East Texas (the native tall grass prairie region) where we receive above average sunlight and rainfall. This rainfall and sunlight ratio really plays into the carrying capacity of my 23 acre farm.
Thank you for watching!

I asked 3 questions at Homesteaders of America 2023: What would you do differently if you had to start over? Have you had any painful losses? What's your advice for people who are scared to start their own homestead?
Thank you to @Agro_Educators_Pork_Rhyne @MikeTheFitFarmer @lemonblossomfarms for their input!
