Our sheep wore coats year round to protect the wool from sun damage and contamination.
The Jacob breed of sheep has been known since ancient times. It is white with black spots, 2 or 4 horned, that takes it's name from the Biblical story of Jacob
The breed has been depicted in medieval paintings and drawings.
