Characteristics
Lambs have a reddish-brown fleece. Their wool lightens as they mature to a red and cream color mixed fleece.
The ears, medium in size, project horizontally from the top of the head. The fleece covers the trunk, neck, and part of legs. The Guirra does not grow a dense wool and is considered to be quite greasy.
