    Blackie, Polly. When the cows are being driven out the driver says, "How!" "How!" "How!" When the hens are being called the caller says "Tuk!! "Tuk!" "Tuk!" When the horse is being told to go the driver says "Gee up!" or "Jip!" "Jip!" "Gip!" and when telling the horse to stop the driver says "Whoa!" When calling the pigs to be fed the feeder says "Bann!".
