What was wrong with the rest of the fleeces?

Not worth the hassle.
Some have wool break, others just filthy, rams are all crap because of the LGD puppy. Addie always has junk. Tatiana apparently roos yearly, so her's is junk, unless I hand cut it in time.

Shearing went up in price, $150 more! So, I'll have to hope fleeces will be worth it next year. Go through the coats, fix them and get them on the best sheep in October or so.
