Sheep types

1. Sheep are valued commercially for their mutton and wool, and occasionally also for milk. With some breeds, such as the Merino, wool is the primary product, while other breeds are kept mainly for mutton - wool being a secondary, if still an important consideration.

2. The points of the mutton sheep correspond rather closely to those of the beef ox. The valuable qualities being a tendency to fatten early in life (early maturity) - a thick covering of lean meat and an even and not wasteful distribution of the fat. The head varies greatly with the breed, but should be of good depth and width, strong of jaw and with a broad nose; the neck moderately short, and thick at its junction with the body; the body deep, wide, and square; the shoulder top wide, level, and well covered with flesh; the chest deep and wide, and the ribs well sprung or rounded; the shoulder thickly covered, and the region behind the shoulder well filled up; the hind quarters longs-broad and level; the gigot or leg of mutton thickly fleshed and the flesh well carried down both inside and out The back should be wide and level throughout, thickly covered with firm, muscular flesh; the legs moderately short and well set apart, the bone neither too coarse nor too fine, clean and hard. The thickness of the tail is also a useful measure of condition or fatness.

3. Sheep's wool is commercially by much the most important fibre of its kind, although other wools and hairs – for example mohair, cashmere, alpaca, and camel's hair – are all used as textiles. Wool is used in the manufacture of a great variety of articles. The chief are, of course, articles of clothing for inhabitants of colder regions of the world, but carpets, tapestries, and blankets form also a considerable quantity of wool products.

4. The British breeds of sheep may be divided into three main groups: Longwools. These are, broadly speaking, the largest breeds. They are white-faced, hornless, and have a fleece of long lustre wool, which is used for worsted wool manufacture. They mature fairly early and fatten readily, but the mutton, at least of the older animals, tends to be coarse-grained and poor in flavour, and readily becomes too fat.
