Shearing Day 2023


We got it done in half a day and they will be nice and cool for the summer.

Last year we didn’t get sheared until late August and so this years fleeces, being sheared at the beginning of June, only have 9 months of growth but they are still absolutely fabulous!

I recorded our shearer Chloe doing our old girl Wanda. Wanda is around 8 or 9 years old and have been here sine 2016. She was one of our first four sheep. The only one that is left. She has a fantastic crimp and length isn’t bad either. So without further delay here is a link to the video of her being sheared.
