How to measure for a good fit:
Measure from the base of the neck (where it joins the back), to the top of the tail and add about 5 or 6 inches-to allow for wool length and chest length. If the measurement in between the sizes, make sure that you order the larger size and not the lower size. If the coat is a bit too large, you may use the elastrator band (for tail docking and castrating) to gather the material up above the tail and hold it until the fleece grows. I have also used nylon cord but I have found that if you have two adult rams that want to decide "who is boss", you may need to replace the bands or ties as the rams continue to "ram" each other!

I will also suggest quilting thread (double) and a hand basting stitch, this may be removed as the fleece grows and will not damage the fabric.
    You will find that it is necessary to increase the size of the coat/cover as the sheep and or fleece grows. For example, my sheep were sheared on February 25 and I have started to change some of the covers in the yearlings. Check the bands at the back of the legs off and on to make sure that they are not too tight.
    You will soon find that the Matilda Sheep Coat/Cover is a wise investment and if you have never covered your sheep prior to this, you will be amazed at the quality of the fleece. The covers should be put on as soon as the sheep are sheared and taken off just prior to shearing. My lambing season is from early March through April-I only remove the coats as the ewes are about to lamb and this you can tell by checking the milk sacs. The whole process becomes a routine and it is one that is certainly well worth the little bit of effort and investment that it takes to end up with a quality and sellable raw fleece.
    I look forward to helping you-please e-mail or call me if you have any questions. I will be happy to let you know the shipping cost and I will accept either a check or a money order.
