They’re regular sheep, but with the wool all pre-peeled from the animal factory.

Hey - messge completely unrelated to this post! I saw on another now archived thread you say that the invention of acrylic aquarium glass was an accident due to the inventor dropping udon noodles onto some glass. Do you have a link to a reference for this? I'm writing a book about accidental inventions and would love to include this but need a link to a story about it.

Wool is almost always a liability for sheep producers. The lambs are where the money is; the wool costs more to shear every year than it sells for. Hair breeds are quickly becoming the norm, outside of a few geographical areas where wool production dominates.
