Ready to be shorn

More does ready to be shorn hopefully in the next few days, about 35 or so left, if the weather holds. We've been going at it hard this week and maybe will get through shearing all the goats. I'll take a break before shearing the sheep but I would like to get them done before the end of the year. We did shear the ram and 2 wethers that are up at the barn with the billies. Their fleeces are clean and fresh, nothing compares to fresh wool, such a good smell and handle. Mohair is better after a good washing, just looks and feels better. I am hoping to get the smell out of the billy fleeces, some of them are so nice, still a kid fleece on them at a year and half of age, just a little stinky.
