... ready, set, go . . .

TitBijou and RhumRaisin are first in line for shearing.
But first, I thought you might like to see my shearing set-up.


I shear on the patio in front of the house.
I put down a clean drop-cloth, in this case an old sheet.
I have my little stool, the shears, oil for the shears, Oxytétrin spray (that electric blue antibiotic spray you can buy at the vets, just in case you have any “accidents”), foot trimming tools, and of course the ever so important ‘toise’ to be used after the fleece has been removed!
