Average day is around $400 but up to $700 for me.

Some guys can make $1000 in one day, but not often.

To be a good sheep shearer, you gotta love pain.

 Quoting: Daersoulkeeper


Working in a sewer you would use protective clothing, as well as breathing apparatus.

Shearing a sheep requires a person to work in temperatures varying between -10*C to 60*C (inside some sheds). As well as dragging sheep weighing between 50-150kgs (ave 70-80kgs). Also working long distances away from home for months on end (as when Aussies/Kiwis come to Germany/UK to shear).

Just some examples.

Lots of extended bending over from the looks of it too, that alone can make a job extremely tough.

Cunt, go shear a sheep then coem back & say ti was easy. They are heavy, & they kick the fuck out of you whilst you try & hold them down to shear. Lets put on top fo that all the back & muscular problems shearers get as the job is not ergonomically practical - yes, it's a fucking tough job. Sheep don't just stand there & let you shear them.

Fucking arrogant Americans.

I trim hooves give shots and clean stalls. 8 goats and 6 sheep to trim today. Is shearing that much more work? How's the money compare what I do vs what you do in Australia?
