This thread is getting crazier.

As someone once said...

You don't have to be daft to be here but it helps.

A handsome Dorset Horn tup.



"Let them go." The judge wants to see the sheep move. I was on my knees in a corner to get a nice low angle.



"Catch 'em up." The handlers collect their sheep by driving them all into a corner. The corner I was in...





I ended up crushed by sheep!

Well dressed Kerry Hill sheep.

Sheep ID??
Met a few of these in a field today. A bit rough and ready compared to pampered toys

Thanks Dave.
What ever he is he didn’t mind Benson being close,
They have had sheep overwintering in the park for a few years now, they’ve not signposted the field yet but previously have had Manx and Hebridean’s.

Rare breed conservation grazing is all the rage these days.

What's going on here?




Some sheep breed associations horn brand sheep deemed to be uop to spec, as it were. Swaledales are branded with a crown, Lonks like this on are branded with a star.

I've yet to learn why some are 'double starred'. A few breeders also have their own brand - usually their initials.
