Cormo sheep were developed in Tasmania in the 1960s by breeding Corriedale rams with Saxon Merino ewes. Their wool is fine, ranging from 17-23 microns, and can be worn next to the skin. Lyon Acres has recently sent off some coated Cormo fleeces to the mill to be processed into combed top. Hopefully this fall it will be available for purchase.
My Cormo Herd:

Trudy
Trudy is a bit camera shy. She gave birth to our first Cormo lamb and has been an excellent mother.

Iris
Iris is our first Cormo ever born on our farm. She has been extremely friendly since the day she was born. Apparently she did not receive the memo informing her that she is a lamb, not a puppy. When she was smaller, she used to jump up until she was picked up. (She's actually much bigger now.)

Thor
Thor is a shy wether. He likes to observe what is going on from a distance. (He's also much bigger now. I seriously need to take new photos!)
