How many

How many gallons of water does it take to grow that fleece? Friday evening seemed to be one of the hottest-most humid days of the summer. I stayed out past 10:00 pm filling water tanks, about 500 gallons. Saturday morning they were half full, so I refilled them. Finally a cold front came through even though the rain didn't preceed it. Turned most of the barn fans off. The sheep and goats seem to be happy, heads up, not panting, moving around and butting heads. They have not enjoyed this summer at all. I am wondering if wool sheep will have a future in the south.
