All welcome   

Sheep Breeding & EBV’s
Empire Farm, Throop Road, Templecombe, Somerset, BA8 0HR
By kind invitation of Tim White

Thursday 24th July    2pm – 4pm

Tim White has been performance recording his Wiltshire Horn and Exlana flocks for many years. During this time he has been a strong advocate for the scheme and the benefits identifying superior genetics can have in a flock.

 Tim utilises Faecal Egg Count sampling within his flocks to identify those animals with superior genetics for round worm resistance and has a keen focus on breeding sheep that are easy to manage and have high health status.

Sounds great Tim, sadly too far for us.  I'm sure it will be a success.
