To the people who asked - we really like these guys. The lambs are red when they're born. The head and legs stay red but the wool is an off white color. They're really nice to handle especially if you've had them in the barn at all. The wool is nice to work with and the meat is excellent. They (whoever they are) claim that the Jacob and the Tunis are the two best eating sheep and I've had both at one time or another and agree. I liked the Jacobs too but so did a cougar. This was quite a number of years ago but the cat put me out of business in a hurry.
