Is shearing good for the animal?
Yes. Sheep grow wool continuously, it is important to shear them at least once a year. Shearing is generally carried out in spring, so that the sheep don't get overheated during summer. In very hot weather, sheep carrying too much wool will get heat stressed and die. If the sheep's fleece gets water logged, it can become cast and unable to right itself. Long fleece is particularly likely to get very tangled and soiled, making the sheep very susceptible to fly bites.
How do sheep react to shearing do they make any sound is there activity or are they silent?
Sheep generally remain calm during shearing. They may make some sounds such as bleating or baaing, but this varies among individuals. Overall, they are usually more focused on the shearing process rather than making noise.
