When do fellow ryeland people shear their tups before showing? :sheep:

Most Ryeland breeders shear the rams and lambs around now, my Ryeland customers are booking in for next week.
Hope this helps,

Oh heavens! Does that mean I have to keep them in? I think its a bit unfair to bring them in....can I shear later? I also have wool rot and wool lift in a couple...mind you its not surprising gicen the weather we have had!
Having had sheep for 30 odd years I have discovered that Ryelands are the easiest sheep to catch and handle that I have ever had and am going to venture into showing :innocent: :excited: .....unfortunately hairdressing is not one of my best skills....
