[Jacob-list] Showing Jacobs

[Marguerite Van Beek]

When I first showed our sheep I washed them two days before the show and they looked like puff balls but they were clean.  Washed out all the crimp and lanolin.

  Although we have been in the showring  (Estes Park Wool Festival) with our Jacob's Once before...

  I was cruising around the Internet... and found this website

  http://www.jacobsheep.freeserve.co.uk/<http://www.jacobsheep.freeserve.couk/>

  In looking at she"showing" information, this site, as well as another I found.. Both said that they WASH the sheep prior to the show.

  Just curious why this practice is done in Europe, but not in the US?
