The Angora is a wooly goat used for clothing. Angora wool produces fine fabric used in top end tailoring work. The Spanish goat is a short haired goat bred for meat purposes. The barbarosa sheep it a wooly critter with spiraled horns. It gets called by dozens of names including Texas Dall from all these "pick-a-pet" and "skeet goat" farms. Most of these sheep are simply cross-breeds from the common domestic ship. The mouflon is a short haired brown wild sheep with sweeping horns that has thrived on game farms while becoming endangered in its native Cyprus.
I just happenned to think about the sheep after I typed the title. I got one of each in last night and before the guys left I think they had been called six different names. They both stink to high heaven. Almost as bad as a coyote. I think I need to raise the price on these things by a couple hundred. LOL
In fact I discourage them by having raised my prices so high. Still managed to get one in this year. Guess I'm back to the drawing board on how much I charge.
