Any sheep people on the list?
what happened to all the sheep lists [or are there still some ?]
is it allowable to post sheep questions on here? if not could you steer me in
the right direction. need some opinions.
i am debating what to do about some lambs - do i shear them, or let the wool
grow till spring [ they are starting to felt] i dont want it to get worse and
ruin the fleece, so should i shear them so i at least have a useable fiber?
but i prefer loooooooooong staple. i could use it for felting if i shear it
now, borderline of being too short to spin [but for me ,if it's not 3'' it's
borderline]
any suggestions ? - normally i shear two times a year, but i lambed later this
spring instead of late winter, so the lambs fleeces are not as long.
thanks for any advice !
