Does everyone just not see the blood scrapes on some of their backs and faces???!!! Anyone, seriously, correct me if I’m wrong because this is making me upset afDomesticated sheep need to be sheared because they don’t shed their coats on their own and it can be bad for their health if it gets too big.Also, it looks considering how close they cut that it went fairly well. I see like 2 nicks maybe, but with the photo it’s hard to tell. I mean, unfortunately, you’re going to nick a few animals because they don’t understand the order of “stand still” very well. Sheep can die from heat exhaustion if they aren’t sheared. Also, their skin secretes lanolin, which quickly soothes and heals any nicks they get during shearing. in conclusion, it is good to peel the sheepsPlease peel your sheepsThey. Look. Like. Peeled. PotatoesPeel your sheep peeps!Remember when they found Shrek living in that cave and freed himhe’s smiling in that last oneHE HAS BEEN SAVED HE HAS BEEN *SHAVEDfixed that for you shorn Also, I don’t know if you’ve ever watched a sheep wander off after being sheared, but they’re so happy They’re suddenly several pounds lighter and can feel the cool air on their skin, so they trot away (albeit slightly confused) and sometimes they’ll just jump around like lambs getting to run for the first time, it’s lovely to watch!In addition, usually when a shearer knicks a sheep- it will happen, their skin is very wrinkly in places, and they don’t like to stay still when the clippers are making noise- we have a disinfectant spray that also stops any bleeding. And yes, with a good shearer, scrapes are rare.Sheep also get wool blindness (where the wool covers the eyes) and fly strike( flies lay eggs in bad wool and it can be fatal) so shearing them is a must -- source link
