Sheep Breeding & EBV’s
Empire Farm, Throop Road, Templecombe, Somerset, BA8 0HR
By kind invitation of Tim White
Thursday 24th July 2pm – 4pm
Tim White has been performance recording his Wiltshire Horn and Exlana flocks for many years. During this time he has been a strong advocate for the scheme and the benefits identifying superior genetics can have in a flock.
Tim utilises Faecal Egg Count sampling within his flocks to identify those animals with superior genetics for round worm resistance and has a keen focus on breeding sheep that are easy to manage and have high health status.
