Six o'clock and six o'clock. That's the whole secret.

A doe milked on the same schedule in the same spot stops treating it as something to resist. Simone's been on this stand twice a day for three months and the routine has worn a groove in her — she's at the gate before I've got my boots on. Two gallons each milking. Bag fills even, milks out clean, and she doesn't shift her weight once while I'm working. $400.

The ewe lambs are five to six months at $250 each. Younger, still growing, and the easiest group on the place to move because they've never been separated. Walk behind them and they go.

The ram lambs are six to eight months at $200 each. More size, good bone, old enough to breed this season. Same calm disposition as the ewes.

All hair sheep, so there's no fleece coming and nothing to shear in spring.
