I am no sheep expert, not even close, but I do know that a sheep can have one ANNULUS or two or more ANNULI. Sorry but I grew up with a dad who always corrected my grammar... Can't help it.

I picked this one cause I thought he was a little difficult. I have him at 9 but I am still learning.

Nice 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 year old. Not sure how you guys are crankin out 10 and 11 years on this animal.

I think he is 9 1/2, but this one is a bit trickier than the others.

8 1/2, but this just goes to show why the change to 3/4 and full curl was needed, not every sheep hunter is going to age the sheep the same

Nice photos
