Question

Is there any brown sheep or just black and white ?

Answer 1

There are sheep in solid colors, and part colors. I live in Texas and one of the more common breeds of sheep raised around here is called Barbados Blackbelly Sheep. Ive posted a link to a website so you can take a look at them.

Answer 2

Sheep come in lots of colours besides black and white - all the old breeds of sheep have coloured wool. There are lots of brown sheep in different shades - Soay sheep have two types of brown: dark, and light which is a sort of tan shade besides them there are Shetland which come in many colours, including browns, Manx Loghtan, Castlemilk Moorit and North Ronaldsay - all of these are Northern short tailed sheep which are nearly all very ancient breeds. Then in the south there are tan breeds such as the Portland, the Herdwick which is native to the Lake District and several Welsh breeds and so the list goes on!

Answer 3

Theres lots of different coloured sheep, but yes there are brown ones, like the Soay Sheep of the Scottish islands, and the Manx Loughton which is a sort of coffee coloured sheep.

Most sheep breeds will produce odd brown lambs from time to time but the two breeds mentioned are known for being distinctively brown
