Online Sheep Auction & Trying To Get Sheep Fed!

Video: Online Sheep Auction & Trying To Get Sheep Fed!

It's time for some new Dorset breeding rams at Ewetopia Farms, so we head to the Morinville Colony online sheep auction to see what they have available. We show you what is involved with bidding online and what a "race horse" finish looks like.
