Lincoln Longwools are characterized with an open, bluish-white face with wide-set, forward-pointing ears, a well-defined forelock of wool; a dark nose with wide-set nostrils, sturdy legs and fully covered with wool except for the lower part of the front legs.  They typically have long lustrous lock-type fleeces and muscular bodies with large legs.  They can adapt to many moderate-tocold environments, have an excellent high fat milk production, attentive mothers, and gentle dispositions.  They are outstanding for crossbreeding with strong, long-lasting teeth and rot resistant feet.  They are not genetically inclined to the onset of scrapie, and live long productive lives. Lincoln rams are typically 250 - 350 lbs and ewes 200 to 275 lbs,  Typical Lincoln wool grows 12 inches annually with a fleece weight of 12-20 lbs.  Fiber diameter is 31 microns and greater.
