Wool

From left to right: Friesian, Lacaune and F1 cross. ------------------------ Most of our sheep are Lacaune, a few are Friesian and all our lambs are F1 friesian x Lacaune crosses. Lacaune aren't very wooly and the quality of it's wool is very low. Friesians have the contrary. We have no problem to find people who want the fleeces of our Friesians. The Lacaune's wool goes into the garbage container... Next spring we will have the first wool of our F1 crosses I wonder how their wool quality will be.
