Q.Sheep & Goats
What is a hair sheep and what are the advantages?
A.
Hair sheep are breeds that shed their wool naturally rather than requiring annual shearing. Common breeds: Katahdin, Dorper, St. Croix, Barbados Blackbelly. Advantages: no shearing cost or labor, better heat tolerance in Southern climates, often better parasite resistance. Trade-off: no wool income.
