Walking sock factory

A wandering five or six year old merino ram hauling around eighty nine pounds (about thirty sweaters) of wool before it's first shear. They named him Chris, but I would have named him Sox.
Talk about carrying a load.

When I saw the pics, I wished I was able to help. The shearer really tore him up.

The dumb ass should have stood still then.

to be honest I suspect that colouration is under the skin, bruising from the long wool. and/or it would be very hard to shear him. But you'd think they'd do pruning cuts - you know, hack off the outer layer, to lighten the load, and then go in for a closer shave.
