Yes, Pekka the Ram is all black. Last spring there were two white lambs, one brown and one black. So it seems that they have hidden genes for the brown color =) But I haven't read that much about sheep genetics, so I don't know exactly.
I'll do shearing some time in May. I have old fashioned shears, but they require a lot of skill to use, so I just borrow a machine from my neighbours. Usually I give the wool to my friends who do handcrafts.
