No. There is a lot of oil (lanolin) in their wool naturally. It prevents static build-up. That oil gets removed from the wool when it is processed into yarn and cloth.

Sure...if you sneak out to a sheep pasture on a cold dark night you will notice all the sheep huddled togather for warmth. If you look closely you can actually see the static electricity and small blue sparks as the rub against one another.
What's more than that is you can take a small lamb and rub it against another sheep thereby creating static cling. If you then take the lamb and rotate it, reversing the lambs magnetic poles relative to the mother, you then can get the lamb to actually stick to the mother via static cling. Of course once it rains the little lamb will fall off again

I have no earthly idea! (Though I doubt they would.)
Do sheep count people as they try to fall asleep???
Great question though! ;)
