I have updated my facebook with some really interesting links to exotic sheep that I have. The Texas Dahls and Royal Whites all are hair sheep. The Royal Whites are the first new breed of sheep in the U.S. in 20 years. They are a cross between St. Croix and White Dorpers, both have hair instead of wool. They are pure white in color. So go to my facebook page and check it out.

- Hi, I love to garden for the color, beauty and smell, but some plants just require way to much work and WATER. That's why I am turning to Xeriscape gardening. I want to be enviornmentally friendly and one step I am taking is to think about what I am planting and how much water it is going to take. I live in the southwest corner of Colorado and it is considered high desert. So the last thing I want to do is plant water guzzeling plants, but I still want a beautiful garden. I want plants and trees that are native to my area and other areas that are similar in soil and temperatures. Believe me, we get all four seasons here. Summers are hot and windy in the day and cool at night, winters are cold. So plants here have to be adaptable.

Do the sheep get sheared like regular sheep and can you spin their hair like you do wool?
