His fleece was so matted and felted that the shearer (who has been at it for 30 years) said it was the 2nd hardest animal to shear in his entire career. He could not even do parts of him with the clippers because the fleece was too matted. He had to use hand shears. It took about an hour to do him. When we re-clip in fall, we'll get the rest of the nasty bits off, and then he'll be good to go for spring shearing. |
