Well, having raised sheep, I can tell you that he is correct. They have not been selectively bred for intelligence.
But if you build yourself a spinner’s flock of wethers (castrated males) of various wool breeds you might not do too badly.
That’s a great idea! I’ll suggest that. I REALLY want a milk cow, but again, Beau has raised them in the past and assures me that I don’t, LOL!
We are going to go into our own beef production though, and he would like some goats for cleaning up the steep hillsides and wooded paths in the pasture.
Angora goats, maybe? Hmmmm.....
