Dunno why but I was expecting to see an Argentinian not a Romney.
im pretty sure they did it that way here as well
Haven't actually tried that but have eaten all be they were fried and for that matter we were as well, the testes of young bulls, but we extracted them with a scalpel not bad either same as lambs tails cooked / burnt on a BBQ
Don't judge me based upon your ignorance.
We use to go up to the Old Lands & survey blocks when we were kids and the old boys up there use too dock like that....those were the good old days,when another lamb meant a tail for the fire and sumthing else for the pot........
WhenI used to help my Uncle out at docking, that's how he insisted it was done.
Life is a lesson-if I bother to listen
The Jews still do that.....to humans.
We also have the more modern approach

Churches are monuments to self importance
I've helped out farmers doing it that way except they are not biting em off, just holding it and slicing with a little hook shaped knife. There is usually a spray of blood (small) over the face which gets quite macabre after the flock is done....
If you are by yourselfor shorthanded its the only practical way (before a crush came along) One hand and knees to hold the sheep and one hand on the knife, mouth to grab the testicles. The day I helped, I'd wrestle the young rams onto the platform (in the shed) and the cocky stood down in the yard at about eye level, fast and almost painless, rams recovered very quickly and no mortalities.
It took me a while to recover mind you....
