Micron count for any wool depends on the fleece used in its fabrication. Baby yak fleece is made up of fibres with a narrower micron measurement that goat or sheep fleece from adult animals.
Average in this case is not a valid statistic, since the type of wool in your question is undefined.
What else can I help you with?
What is the thickness of wool called?
The thickness of wool is referred to as its "micron count." This measurement indicates the diameter of the wool fiber, with lower micron counts indicating finer, softer wool.
What you would do to breed sheep for wool quality?
Test your wool for micron diameter and breed the finer micron animals together or source a ram with a finer micron.
What fiber comes from sheep?
Sheep only produce one type of fibre which is called wool but it is of different microns (thicknesses). The higher the number (micron) the finer the wool. The finer micron wool is more expensive and used for suits and the coarser the micron is the more likely it is to be used in carpets etc
What kind of wool do fine-wooled sheep produce?
Fine wool which means it has a finer micron.
How does selective breeding help in enhancing the quality of wool?
As the quality of wool (micron etc) has a genetic component so feasibly if you breed fine microns together you will get finer micron
What is fine wool sheep?
Fine woolled sheep are those that have a finer micron to their wool eg Merinos
What are merino sheep well known for?
For the production of high quality fine micron wool.
Do they put all the wool in the same bale after the sheep are shorn?
No the wool is skirted and sorted into different bales depending on its cleanliness and quality (micron).
How much least count of coordinate measuring machine?
0.5 micron is least count of cmm machine
How is wool classified?
This could also be called skirting wool. It is when you sort the fleece into different parts - the bellies, the dags and the true fleece.
How much is sheep wool worth?
It depends on the micron and the quantity and quality - currently it ranges from $12.66 to $26.32 a kilo
What is the basis to decide the quality of wool obtained from sheep?
The different types of wool are used for different purposes. Some wool that is fine may be used for clothing. Some wool that is more coarse may be used as a filler. The quality is determined by the grading system of micron. The grade given for the wool determines the profit that can be made.
