 attention after the second milking. Such ewes are 

 marked on their backs with blue chalk to indicate

 are check-marked. Another five days pass by and 

 still a few more ewes have to be milked out. This 

 is generally the last time they are milked out, 

 with the exception perhaps of one or two who are 

 extremely heavy milkers. In this way not a single 

 udder will be spoiled.
