We always put the Blanket in a separate Bag, and if it is a really good fleece, when we go to shear, we have it put onto a clean (New) white sheet and sheared with a show cut...and usually the Neck goes in one Bag and the Legs in one. (All animals have their own bag.)Also, on a card, we put the Name of the Animal, it's ARI #, Color and so forth go on a card and is placed in the Bag for easy I.D.We use to put the Neck & Legs in one bag together, (Our first two years) but we don't any more, there is a difference in them.That is just how we do things here.Hope this helps... :c)Donna----- Original Message -----From: Catherine FitchSent: Wednesday, April 21, 2010 8:30 AMSubject: [AlpacaTalk] shearing questionsWe will have our new Alpacas soon. They will have to be sheared soon, also.
They are nice and clean.
I will want to take the fleece and have it turned into roving, possibly combining some with some nice wool.
Do I need to sort the fleece into different bags, or do I put the whole fleece from each animal into the same bag?
Of course, I would throw away the dirty parts, but I mean clean fleece.
