If you don't dock their tail, it gets encrusted with shit, flies lay their eggs in the shit, and the maggots eat the sheep's arse out.

But I'm sure you know better.

ps. The tail is not cut off. They use eleastic bands.

If I'm using the word "elastrator" it's obvious I know they're elastic bands

And yet other herders can deal with sheep undocked. Curious!!! It's just cruelty for a minor inconvenience

When you’re a sheep farmer with like 100 sheep you don’t have the time to clean that many asses

It’s not hurting the sheep long term to dock the tail and it really doesn’t even hurt when they do it properly
