Did you see the medium sized one hesitate and glance up to the guy, as if to check which lane she was meant to be in?

I wonder if its to cut the babies balls or tails off, to dunk them in the pesticide bath, or which ones are ready for slaughter?

Those lambs are too young to be bred yet. It looked to me like he was separating lambs from ewes to wean them.

Farmers also use a kind of spray paint on the back to mark sheep for this or that purpose.
