Title: Oxford Sandy and Blacks
Post by: The Lint Mill on August 15, 2012, 07:35:38 am

HI

We are looking at possibly doing OSB again, we got our last two in Aug/Sept 2011 and are planning to do the same this year.
We are based in South Lanarkshire so ideally we would rather get locally rather than travel to avoid stress to weaners.
We are looking at  2 or 3

or does anyone know of breeders around Lanark/Biggar/Peebles etc

Thanks for looking.

I'm in Lesmahagow but my current litters of OSB and Large Blacks are all sold (unless you fancy some Kunekunes ?)
But you could try Cath & David at Thornielee Cottage in Galashiels http://www.thornieleecottage.co.uk/Thornielee_Cottage/Welcome.html (http://www.thornieleecottage.co.uk/Thornielee_Cottage/Welcome.html) they might have some litters due  ;)

Gillian and David - a bit further away near Strathblane - we got 4 nice OSB weaners from them which are nearing butchering weight now - Gillian is 'Pebbles' on this forum.
