Not sure where my posts and pictures have gone - will try and reload but for now we are home safe after 3 busy days at the show. We added a few rosettes to our collection. Charlotte made her showing debut very succesfully and we had lots of people very interested in the Lowline breed. Logan and one of the calves were interviewed by BBC southwest after they spotted him in the grand parade which someof you may have seen on friday evening - on saturday many of the public coming through the cattle lines recognised Logan from the tv !
We were showing against some very good (and large) sussex and galloway cattle. Results as follows:
Bull class - Langford Conker took 2nd place to a good Sussex bull
Calf class - Our 2 week old bull calf took 2nd place and 9 month old bull took 4th place. The judge was particularly taken with the little calf stating he was one to watch as he had excellent presence and style..... at only 2 weeks! he went on to be awarded a Reserve Special rosette. he was also a huge hit with the public in the cattle lines with everyone wanting a stroke.
Cow Class - Gracie took 4th and Sadie 5th place
Heifer Class - Wessex Angela took 6th place
Now to get all the white coats washed and ready to pack up again for Suffolk show on the 29th May
