Went to the Cheshire county show today, wow what a day, Shetland sheepdogs, Jack went best of breed out of over 50 entries, Coral (owned by Pat) went best of breed in Tervuerens and Ghia went best of breed in Laekenios and group 4 in the pastoral group.
Not a bad days showing.Full results will be on web site shortly.
The traffic for this show is unbelievable, so all in all it has been a very long day.
The kids had a great time on the old time fair,and with all the old fire engines and tractors all i keep getting is '' in the olden days '' did we have this and did we have that, like i know, i am not that old!
I found a breed of sheep today that i liked,
called the hebriedeans, all black with horns, might be something to add to our managerie
The pigs made me laugh, we saw a saddleback there that was the biggest pig i have ever seen, might have to rethink what type of pigs we get after seeing her, she was masssive
A future farmer in the making ?
The allotment is coming on well, space has been cleared for the polytunnel, should hopefully be up by the end of the week.
The potatoes and runner beans are looking well.
We have also planted a whole range of veg and fruit.
For the first time in a few years a lot of our apple trees have a good crop on them.
The foal is doing very well and is no longer the ugly duckling. The sheep have settled in well and are not bothered at all by the dogs and noise coming from the kids.
And finally but not least, the mali pups are doing great, still 2 pups waiting for that special home.
Took them down the field for the first time on Tuesday, a bit unsure at first but soon got the hang of it and then there was no stopping them.
Will upload more pictures of them in the next few days on the website.
Bed early tonight cause i am shattered.......
