My husband's alarm starts going off at 4:30. He has to leave by 6 so I am awake and up and out of bed by 6 because I have to be at work at 7 myself.

Oh about 2:30pm. I work nights. I do my morning chores when I get home at 7:30am then afternoon chores when I get up.

4:30 on mornings I milk, 5-5:30 on days I don't. Plus, usually, 11pm and 3am because for the last 5 years I've had a dog on steroids for an AI disorder and she either has to pee or answer out loud the voices in her head. BUT, I also take a nap about 3 times a week. (a benefit to working a split shift!)

Between 4:30 and 5 on the weekdays (get up, work out, shower, get kids ready for school, out the door by 6:15).

5:15 - 5:30 am every day. Take care of animals and ready to leave the house for work by 7:00 am. On weekends, I get up at the same time, and getting started with whatever needs to be done once the animals are tended to.

Chillin' with the herd
4:30 during the week, out the door & off to work by 5. My pretty little wife gets up around 5:30-6 to get the munchkins ready for school then off to work she goes. Up until a couple weeks ago neither of us ever went to the barn in the morning, but lately the wife has been. We have one mentally challenged doeling that gets her head stuck about every other day, and the boar needs water.
All the chores get done after I get home, or after the kids get home from school.
Weekend between 4:30 & 8 depending on what I have to get done & time of year.

Herd Master
My internal alarm clock gets me up between 6:30 and 7 am...gives me time for some coffee before the dogs start doing their potty dance and the sheep start calling by 8 am...then it's the chickens to feed and water.
Sheep in their night paddock can see me through the kitchen window making coffee and have finally learned that yelling their heads off won't bring me out any faster, but by 8 they are impatient and very verbal...now even the lambies are joining in the chorus

Currently I get up at 7 because I have a bottle lamb to feed and that's when his morning bottle is due. Ordinarily, I wouldn't get up until 8 or 8:30. My husband usually sleeps in later. It's almost 10 here right now and he still hasn't gotten out of bed though he is awake.

Between 6:30 and 7am almost every day. My DH does the morning animal chores on weekdays but I still have to get up to go to work and I do the morning chores on weekends so it's pretty much the same every day, although I have been known to go back to bed on weekends after morning chores if I'm really tired and sleep until 10am.
