Thanks for the video Allan. At least you won’t end up deaf like most machine shearers.

Was that sheep druged? Why its so relaxed and compliant

[@allantheshearer]

It's all about the way they are handled. If they are kept comfortable and handled gently they tend to sit well

Question: someone said that female lambs will holler while male lambs will not (along with both male and female sheep). Is this true?

[@allantheshearer]

I think someone is making things up. Maybe with certain breeds but I've seen both male and female lambs and adult sheep bleating regularly.
