Hi Have two rams in a house with some ewes. The two rams have half their wool gone. They are in shed a few months now. Why is this? Thanks.

A period of hardship (ie something maybe nutritional, or parasites), will cause that. You see it in ewes that get a big shock to the system, like having triplets or getting twin-lamb disease.
