Ranchers Training to Show New Sheep
01/26/2012
A generous donation of sheep at the Batesville Ranch a few months ago has led us to begin a show program for our new additions. I know that this is the easiest project to start as far as a show project for anyone just starting out. After a few emails, a donor offered to buy the Ranch a set of four ewe lambs to show in the fall, and then we are going to use the lambs to start raising our own flock of sheep. The lambs came from a breeder in Mississippi who is very well known for raising high quality show lambs. The kids at the Ranch are excited about the new project and are starting to prepare the animals to show at the North Central Arkansas District Fair in the fall of 2012.
