Champion Shetland at York

At the Weekend we took some sheep to the York Rare Breed Show and Sale. Much to my delight my Shearling ram Highfield Gabriel became the Champion Shetland and went on to be Reserve Primitive Champion! Picture below of the fella in question. Yes he is covered in sawdust - I had picked lots off, but couldn't get rid of all of it!
Unfortunately prices in the sale were not great so Gabriel didn't sell - he is for sale privately if anyone is interested. He has a lovely temperament, good wool, compact shape. He has been Society Approved, his pedigree can be viewed on the Shetland Sheep website www.shetland-sheep.org.uk (click on registrations - online flock book - type in his name)



We also have other rams for sale.
