  • Face and legs: Light beige or dark brown
  • Hooves: Muted dark gray
  • Wide brush handle: Natural wood tone or dark brown
Questions and answers

Questions and Answers

Why is it important to brush and clean sheep wool?
Cleaning sheep wool removes dirt and debris, which keeps the fleece light, healthy, and easy to shear for wool production.
What makes sheep wool water-resistant in nature?
Sheep produce a natural oil called lanolin in their skin, which coats the wool fibers and sheds water during rainstorms.
Does shearing or brushing wool hurt the sheep?
No, brushing and shearing wool is like getting a haircut and helps keep the sheep cool and comfortable during warmer months.
