Daughter entered the young handler class and the judge made them swap sheep! So here she is holding a Kerry Hill.
As often happens she wasn't paying enough attention to the proceedings so wasn't placed!
In the showing classes we took the Portlands in the Hill and Heath section and came 4th in the Group of 3 class.
We then took the Shetlands in the Primitive section. I was really pleased that our Shetland Shearling Ewe Highfield Gloria came first in her class and was the the overall Primitive Champion. Gloria is the twin sister of Gabriel who won the champion at York - more winning offspring from Highfield Daniel and Brae Pepper!
We also got a 3rd and 4th in the Ewe class, a 4th in the ewe lamb class. Daughter got a 3rd for her group of 3 with the judge commenting it was nice to see 3 patterned Shetlands.
The following day we went into the interbreed but didn't get a prize.
Son had fun holding a chick which he thought was very cute!
My stall was next to some very noisy heritage turkeys! but at least they drew people to the stall!
All in all a really enjoyable and successful weekend!
