Title: Black Welsh Mountain?
Post by: spidge on May 26, 2018, 09:40:00 pm

I know this is a terrible photo (I’ll try and get a better one tomorrow). Can anyone tell me if these girls look like black Welsh mountain?

Thanks.

They look like they are crossed with black welsh, hard to tell what they are crossed with but they are not pure. The ears aren't right (too big).  I had BWM for many years and love the breed! Did you buy these? Both the pure and the cross make excellent mothers!
