Thank you for all your nice comments about the trophy and about our freaky sheep horns
Hebs used to be 60% multihorned but so many people think 2 horns are plenty for any sheep that they are now only 6% of the breed. We are used to being sent to the bottom of the class because so few judges, esp Heb judges, like multihorns - we know our place in life
I think the judge was taking judging the class very seriously but we are more into zany. I suppose if we wanted to win back our own trophy we should have brought our 2 horned tup who has massive 1 1/2 turn striking black curly horns. The sheep were so delighted to get away from the noise and return to their nice safe fields. They did leave me with a few bruises and a split lip
I was delighted that the horns class was open to goats as well as sheep - it was lovely having them all in together
- and two goats were placed which is great
I'm sorry I didn't manage to match up faces with TAS names sometimes. There were so many I do know and I so wish I had known who the rest are. We should wear our TAS names across our foreheads
A local meet-up would be lovely Dan
I haven't been to one before and I would love to find out who everyone is. It was good to meet with you at last too (you're much taller than I expected
)
Bigchicken, was that you speaking with Alec with the spotfree texel, and Mr F? I wasn't very quick on the uptake by then - turned into a zombie
