A few of the fleeces waiting their turn on the skirting table

 The skirting table set up in the alpacas sleeping quarters.

 I managed to salvage 2 Merinos fleeces from the 

4 we sheared this year. The other two were even 

more fragile and VM loaded.

These two do have some fragile tips along the spine, 

and they do pull off easy enough. I would not send

these to the mill. At least not without taking off the 

fragile tips first. The 2nd fleece had most of the

spine area removed due to VM.

 The pictures with the yard stick show the length

left after the fragile tips are removed. The rest of

the fleece is sound. This is 2 years growth. The

owner does not have a barn to lock them in, and

they like to stay outside in the weather...

 One is white, and one is a tan/brown.

I will weigh them and post prices tomorrow.
