The results are online now here:

http://www.accidentalsmallholder.net/online-shows/

We had a small technical hitch that meant the incorrect result was showing for a few hours, so apologies to anyone who saw those.

We'll announce the results formally today, be in touch with the prize winners and do a bit of improvement work on the system.  :)

Re. Goat Show, I agree with Plum's - Classes for Best Wether, Doe, Buck, and kid… and maybe a class for 'goat most like it's owner' !  :o

I can try to look cute but not sure I can grow the beard.   ;D

Oh. now I'm thinking... classes I've enjoyed at various local shows over the years...

  • veteran, of course
  • most appealing eyes
  • waggiest tail - works for dogs, what's the equivalent for goats, pigs, ducks, sheep...?  ???
  • best 6-legs (dog and owner, in this case)
  • love the 'most like owner' (or vice versa) idea

Oh, and what about 'unlikely friendships'?
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing

Okay, just so I get the terminology right, we'll have:
  • Best Wether
  • Best Doe (not Nanny?)
  • Best Buck (not Billy?)
  • Best Kid
  • Goat most like its owner
It's scheduled to start tomorrow (Saturday).  :)

When I was a Kid ;D adult female goats were 'Nannies' - adult entire male goats were known as 'Billies'.
I think it's a fashion thing, most people seem to call them Does and Bucks nowadays, or maybe it's a regional thing like cade/sock/caddy lambs ?  :-\
