Tell me all about it. If you are not a shepherd -you can also talk about your job.

I would like to ask questions to someone who tends sheep though!!!
 
Are there a lot of shepherds online? Serious question.

I am not a shepherd, but I have gotten a hate message from a former shepherd.
 
I guess that counts as long as you tended their sheep or something. Have to say I am curious what hate message a shepherd would send.

The shepherd did not like how I make my livelihood and secure same for my employees.
 
Oh thanks! Did you look? I am not sure how sane the shepherd was who castrated his flock by biting off their balls.:eek:

Honestly, not too carefully. :D It's more the idea that you might be able to find AMA (ask me anything) discussions on Reddit and elsewhere that I thought might be useful.
 
Seek out Shepard Smith he has a flock of left wing sheep he tends to everyday on FOX.
 
A Kiwi. A New Zealander.

I’ve docked a few lambs before. Both here and in NZ.

We used dogs to round them up. Sheep dogs. Kelpies and border collies.

What are your questions?

Ok, is there somewhere you can learn how to do this or does information get passed down?

Do shepherds know the terms rod and staff or is it only in the bible?

If you wanted the best non-biblical information about ancient shepherding where would you go???

I guess I would start there....:D Good to see you btw!!!! Hope all is well.....:rose:

Of course. You could learn all about it down the farm. Sheep farm. We have a lot down here. A lot a lot. Go talk to a farmer. They still use hooks in the pen sometimes, but it’s more sorting than bringing them back to the fold, you know what I mean? We have fences. And then we have gates in the pen for sorting also so not really.

Ancient shepherding? You’d have to go back to where sheep came from I guess. Europe and... well, England, Scotland, Northern Europe and the Middle East, I think? The sheep we have now are from Spain. Merino. The wooly ones. Great for socks.

Good to see you too. :kiss:
