@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK Hi Llŷr. Can we share this post on our Facebook page? Thanks :)

@FarmingUK @PETAUK Yes no problem

@LlyrDerwydd @TechieLass @PETAUK I have no problem with the shearing, but the fact that it is nessesary bothers me. It seems wrong to me, when animals are bread to the point, where the individual animals would suffer horrible deaths without human help. Perhaps it is time to bread some all that wool away again?

@imbrunsgaard @TechieLass @PETAUK I would happily have sheep that don't need shearing Inger. We lose around £700 a year because we need to shear the sheep. I certainly don't breed sheep because of their wool only do it for Welfare.

@LlyrDerwydd @RosewoodFarms @PETAUK I'm not a fan of PETA, but I don't think they argue that it's necessarily cruel to sheer a sheep. They object to selectively breeding sheep to overproduce wool, and to rely on humans to sheer them. Their wild ancestors (Mouflon) are independent enough to shed their own wool

@awright4645 @RosewoodFarms @PETAUK Hi Andrew This is what #petalies about.

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK Roeddwn i'n chwilio am yarn gweu gwlan 100% I'm gwraig ac roedd y rhan fwyaf yn acrylic, ond ges i wlân go iawn o Dwrci ar ebay. Pam nad yw'n haws prynu gwlân Cymreig fel hyn?

@melynmelyn @PETAUK Fydd rhaid gofyn cwestiwn da yne i @BritishWoolFarm Is there a reason why Gareth can't buy Welsh wool in yarns? Thanks

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK Only when done right, there's plenty of vile cases AND footage of examples of when this practice is done in a barbaric way

@food_sm @PETAUK Yes your right Sarah. I've been shearing for 25 years and never seen that sort of practice. They would be asked to leave my farm straight away. Happy for you to come and see what we do here. 👍

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK I’ll trust the accumulated wisdom of generations of Welsh farmers on this subject any day. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🐑

@LlyrDerwydd @1GarethWynJones @PETAUK Fly strike can be nasty and sometimes you can’t see if the sheep got them, we corvet the lambs and ewes after they are clipped as well

@LlyrDerwydd @RosewoodFarms @PETAUK Sheep dipping doesn't eradicate maggots? Forgive my ignorance.

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK If there is no financial gain, why do you keep them? Can you link the specific page on which peta tells you to leave them alone?

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK Why was it allowed to fester without notice if you care so much? Why were you bending her neck back like that? you don’t care stop lying

@LlyrDerwydd @Paul_Brown1 @PETAUK And I’m not seeing too many cuts or cruelty as they would have you believe

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK It's no good knocking when there's no one home as my mother says. You will never explain this to vegans or animal rights terrorist because in their eyes all farmers and meat eaters are below human.

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK We all know how good it feels after we’ve had a haircut and as a teacher run home to wash my hair after head lice have been discovered in class.

@LlyrDerwydd @PETAUK I can't believe the amount of people commenting on this thread that believe what they read rather than the people who clearly live and work in the countryside.
