I don't think I every heard of this kind of sheep Tunis. Is it as soft as romney? I'm a spinner and was wondering if it is soft wool. If so do you sell it or barter for some of the fibers/or roving?

It is quite a bit finer/softer than the Romney.
I love spinning Romney! My husband processed some Tunis roving for me, and it has been a challenge to spin. But I am a novice :)
It has a shorter staple length as well.
It is oatmeal in color.

He doesn't have a name.
Some of our ewes get named, but the ram lambs do not.
It causes attachment issues with my girls and we can't keep them all :)
