Skirting

_{$25.00 per fleece}

We strongly recommend you skirt your fleece before shipping. This will save you the cost of shipping unwanted material that will be removed and disposed of later.

Color Separation

_{$25.00 per fleece}

Due to the time consuming nature of this task we must charge an additional fee for color separation of fleeces. For example: separating brown and white of Jacob fleeces.

We strongly encourage our customers to perform this step themselves, saving us time and themselves this extra cost.
