SOUTHDOWN BABYDOLL SHEEP
Southdown Babydoll Sheep make excellent companions for the young, elderly, and disabled. Their gentle nature makes them a joy to own, and their diminutive size makes them an excellent choice for 4-H projects. Their fleece generally runs in the 19 to 22 micron range, which puts the fleece in the class of cashmere! Babydoll fleece also has more barbs per inch than any other wool type, making it ideal for blending with other fibers. I have put mine in my garden as a method of organic weeding and they are excellent little weeders; cleaning up all kinds of weeds and never touching any of the crops (well, maybe the strawberries once or twice). They have been used with great success in wine vineyards as well as fruit and berry orchards since they will not harm the fruits, girdle trunks of trees, or harm shrubs. They leave the grounds well groomed and fertilize the soil as they graze. They also make wonderful companion animals for other non-aggressive livestock. Their calm, docile disposition has a soothing effect on other livestock. They have lived alongside many of our other animals and they are an absolute joy to watch and love.
