4 things to know about Wiltshires
They have short white hair on their heads, bellies, legs and bums instead of wool.
Make sure your Wiltshire come from stock that are shedding their wool – ask to see the breeding ram.
Their wool biodegrades into the pasture so there’s no need to pick up wool that has shed.
Unusual weather patterns may affect a Wiltshire’s ability to shed their wool but they should be shedding by 6 months of age.
