Whitby Flock

14/06/2026

It's been a busy month carrying out a few judging appointments. I had the privelage of been asked to judge the Scottish National sale and the NI national show for the hamps. The standard of sheep is certainly on the up. Great to see plenty of young and new breeders. The effort put in by both clubs for these shows and sales to run smoothly was clear to see.

Substitute for Lot 75. This was a keeper but a glitch in the Matrix has changed our plans. Whitby A072600380 (UK 0135775/00380)
Really strong lamb with great presence. High index with the third highest muscle depth EBV for a ewe lamb currently on the Signet system. Muscle depth figure of 4.03 which is almost double the top 1% threshold of 2.19! In the top 10 of ewe lambs for Carcass Conformation EBV at 1.17, well over the top 1% threshold that is 0.81. fresh from the field this week so just a trim and no wash.
