Title: Talking of intersting fleeces......
Post by: Blinkers on March 28, 2013, 10:22:16 pm
I've got a Zwartble Xbred that I put to my GFD and one of the ram lambs is black with a GFD fleece !!! Now, I just might have to have this boy castrated as that fleece looks like its gonna be a really interesting one and I can't wait to see it fully fledged  :innocent: :thinking:
 
Any other interesting fleece 'possibles' ?

I've got a couple of Herdwick x Gotland lambs, it will be interesting to see if their fleece goes coarse like the Herdwick or silky like the Gotland.  At the mo they are quite curly!
