Have you asked Mrs B? She used to breed some cracking Balwens, I suspect she would still have some contacts :thumbsup:


Unless it's her wanting one and she misses the Bally's too much........ :D

Oooh Don...sounds wonderful! I have just got some grazing of Lesley for winter and I have got to keep something on the fields I already have to secure my tenure there however, I am seriously thinking of getting a small flock of rare breeds....something like Soay, Castlemilk with the money I make from my sales of these lambs so would that work if I put those on. I was thinking about 10 or so...depending on how much they cost. Want pedigrees to show...LOL. Or maybe just MORE beautiful Shetlands!!!
