How much on average can you make a year on wool from sheep?
That is like asking how much does a gallon of gas cost? It depends on where you live, what time of year, economic conditions, among many other reasons. The amount of wool you get off of one sheep can vary depending on many factors like size, breed, quality, time of year, and other factors. Therefore the amount you will sell the wool for varies just as much. It depends on the grade of the wool, the cleanliness, the staple length, the color, and other factors. Generally you can shear 1-10lbs of wool per sheep and you can get $0.10 per pound for tags and poor wool up to $2.00 or more per pound for clear top grade wool. So basically the answer is it depends.
