Wool keeps the cold out and warm in. The fleece on these lambs is 1-1.5 inches long. Even with this short fleece, the wool keeps the lambs warm and insulates them so well that the snow does not melt on there backs.
This is a blog about sheep specifically Corriedales. Corriedales are a dual purpose meat and wool breed that perform well for both uses. They produce great fleece that spinners value highly. Our farm is in central Illinois.
