Open invitation to Good Fibrations Summer shearing. Watch long time shearer Jonathon Hearne as he deftly shears the heavy summer mohair fleeces from young kids being sheared for the first time to our beloved geriatric doe Copper for her 25th shearing! While each goat is already contained, hooves are trimmed; goats are weighed, and checked/medicated for parasites; vaccinations are administered. This is a day that truly is all about the goats! It’s interesting to see the sheared goats join the herd…they don’t often recognize each other without their fleece! The fun begins!
