Thus, the silkiness in the grey lambs was 7.47-8.47 points and with the exception in 2019, significantly (P≤0,01; P≤0,001) exceeded the silkiness of the black lambs. The silkiness of the sur lambs was 7.1 - 8.05 points, and significantly (P≤0,05; P≤0,01) exceeded the silkiness of the black lambs, which was 6.51 - 7.62 points. The gloss in grey lambs was of 7.47-8.39 points and with the exception in 2019, significantly (P≤0,05; P≤0,01; P≤0,001) exceeded the gloss of the black lambs. On the lot of sur lambs the gloss
