Jacob sheep are a distinctive and ancient breed known for their striking appearance and multiple horns—most have four, though some individuals have two or even six horns. They have piebald (black and white) wool and a lean, medium-sized frame, giving them a unique and somewhat wild look. Originally from the British Isles, Jacob sheep are hardy, adaptable, and often raised for both their wool and their ornamental appeal.
