Its alot harder to get a long fleeced lamb clean than a slick shorn one

I would have never even thought of the impact on their hides, either! Now I have something to share – and think about – whenever I see them. Thanks again!

Yes that is corrent, the lamb tubes, or socks are used to keep them clean and keep their hides tight ( makes their bodies seem firmer to the judges touch ) Anyways goats can wear tubes too, but its less common. Prolly cause they dont get as dirty as lambs. The hoods are just another way too keep clean (:
