MV Accredited Rylands?
« on: August 13, 2014, 06:42:19 pm »
Hi, we have Shropshires which are MV accredited and it is important we keep it (society exports lots to Northern Europe). Wifey wants to start breeding Rylands........Spoken to a few breeders who are not MV accredited.  Don't really fancy putting up new fencing with a 6 foot gap to satisfy MV rules. Anyone know of any MV accredited Ryland breeders?

I made enquiries about this last year as we have MV accredited Zwartbles and wanted to get a native breed, however it was going to be a problem, don't think there were more than one or two accredited breeders  ( I also made enquiries about Kerrys and the situation was the same)  - ended up getting Shropshires!  I would contact the breed secretary they should be able to advise you of the current situation regarding any MV accredited flocks.
