Sheep of the snapshot give off wool inverted to the sheep's original color. I set up a blue sheep. As I sheared it, the wool given is colored yellow, not blue. The other picture, indicating a White colored sheep, gave me 2 pieces of black wool.
Same things goes on:
Light Gray > Gray
Brown > Light Blue
Red > Orange
etc.
