2021 Boreray Shearling Fleece
This fleece is no longer available but we may have other Boreray fleeces available.
Description
This fleece is very nice. The staple is long, wavy and glossy with a lovely fine undercoat. It is mainly white in colour but there are tan hues at the neck and leg area. There is a very small tight patch on the back. It's a lovely example of the Boreray breed.

Description
These Boreray wethers were born in 2020 and spend their days grazing the pastures with our tups. Here they are being fed hay during the winter months by our little boy, Rowan, with his little red wheelbarrow.
