Lanolin’s good for your skin but is it good for the stones?


This is Fly-strike (Blow-Fly) season in the sheep world LS and the sheep rub their rear ends against stationary objects to get rid of the eggs or maggots if the fly has laid eggs on them. Having to deal with sheep that have fly strike and seeing what it can do to them if left, the stones would be the last thing on my mind...and I'm a devotee!!!
