Random spotting occurs on the rest of the body. Jacob's exhibit a great variation in wool quality and fineness. This is one of the largest recognized ranges of any wool breed. Fleeces weigh from 2 to 5 pounds and have a staple length of 3 to 7 inches. The Jacob is always a horned sheep in both sexes.
Horns are black or black and white striped, never all white.
Horn patterns vary, but the two horns sweep back and around the cheek area, clearing the jaw. There may be a double curl. Four horned sheep have two side horns curving along the side of the head and two on the top of the head. These may be vertical or curved. Horns must not be configured so they pose a threat to the animal's well being.
