Billed as the ultimate harvest festival on Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 September, at the Three Counties Showground Malvern, the Autumn Show was the place to go.
The high spot for me was the livestock on display.
The Blue Texel is an easy lambing
carcase sheep of an attractive colour.
Rams are popular because their progeny
is easily lambed, something that the narrow head and light bone of the Blue
Texel are promoted for.
They are a hardy breed, originating on
the very exposed Texel Island and Holland, therefore the hair, found from
birth, on the heads and legs of all of these animals is also an important
characteristic.
All sheep must be correct in teeth,
teats, testicles and legs.
"Using a BLUE will make more MONEY
for you."
