Size is too small** A: Just go on to "Your Orders" and click item. Then you will be offered different options **Q: How do i measure for correct size/shape** A: It's easier if you've got a head torch then you can use both hands for measuring. Measure the distance front to back and side to side. Then choose a Chimney Sheep that's a couple of inches / 5cm bigger on each dimension. There's a sizing chart among the additional product pictures or more info if you need it on the Chimney Sheep website. If you're still not sure give us a call, we're happy to chat about chimneys even if you go back to Amazon to make the purchase :-) **Q: Does it matter if it gets wet? Water comes down our chimney in heavy rain.** A: I can't see that it matters; chimney sheep is made of wool/mixed fibres which can be dried out easily. However, the device will sag if soaked in water and will, therefore, fall from its position in the chimney flue. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality *by A***R on 2 October 2025* Good product, does the job of keeping away the draught.

Would buy again! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect fit *by J***L on 27 October 2025* It’s doing a great job as we used to get a brought down the chimney but not any more. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chimney sheep is baa-rilliant *by K***Y on 27 July 2020* Why do you need a chimney sheep? Anyone who's chimney isn't sealed is who! We have a open chimney with a 'faux fire' at the bottom. It's not sealed in and the chimney isn't capped. We moved in 2 years ago and haven't investigated it much until a little while ago. The previous residents had shoved newspaper up there and when we looked to clear it as I'd got loads of dust on the Garth, we found about 6 dead skeletons of birds. All cleaned we thought all done and pushed newspaper back...until about 3 weeks ago I heard a fluttering. Bird in the chimney. The bird died and rotted...and then we had flies...massive flies!! So this brings me to the chimney sheep. My friend has these in her home and I was looking for something to help with my bird issue when I came across these. I measured up the hole my chimney has and purchased it. The sheep is a tiny bit small as our original fireplace is gone so it's a bit rugged. Saying that it has stopped all the dust from coming down and seems to keep in the heat (won't know 100% until winter). It is expensive for what is a blob of wool on the stick but I would recommend it!! ## Frequently Bought Together - 6 x 16 inch Chimney Sheep Chimney Draught Excluder - 9 x 16 Chimney Draught Excluder - 12 x 20 inch Chimney Sheep Chimney Draught Excluder --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48673379-chimney-sheep-6-x-16-inch-oblong-chimney-draught-excluder](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48673379-chimney-sheep-6-x-16-inch-oblong-chimney-draught-excluder) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
