Rhön sheep are a special breed of the Rhön. Their faces are black and their wool rather yellowish. What makes them different from similar sheep in the UK and elsewhere? The legs of a Rhön sheep are white while other black-faced sheep have either black or black and white legs. That is why the Cartoon Rhönhilde has law suits going on. Rhönhilde is pictured as a sheep with black legs, which angers the shepherds of the Rhön.

The wool of the Rhön sheep is no good for making wool.

Many thanks for your visit, fave and (if you have time) comment.
