    Is this an issue only in domestic sheep or do wild breeds have coat problems as well?

      Just domestic. Another comrade here once explained they have to shave them or they will die from like heat stroke or something.

          I think so. I know next to nothing about sheep tbh just parroting what another comrade once said here. They seemed to know what they were talking about.
