You poor dear! I am also allergic to sheep, but it is the animal dander, I think. I can use some lanolin things, but a just born lamb, no no no. Keep it away from me.

I didn't used to be allergic, but then one day I went to my neighbor who had sheep to help her. There was a ewe that had pushed herself into the heat lamp and caught her wool on fire. I put the fire out with my Dr. Pepper and smelled the burning wool. That set me up. The next time I went over there, I came down with mucosal reaction.

I can also get it in the gut, that's when I get head to toe hives. I ate some cake that had been in a room where they were carding wool. I went to the ER.
