That tan belly is indeed fading in fact he was faded and even red brown all over and I didn't even realize he had the gray underneath until I sheared him. I...
Check Fair Hill Farm album. I have at least 2 pictures of English blue ewes there and one Brown English blue ram lamb. These are unsheared pictures, soon I...
Hi I agree that you have several English blue, but I don't agree that the white markings (collar, crown) have got anything to do with the pattern. Aeb may well...
Nikyle, Thanks so much for posting these. I am particularly interested in the picture of Tiesto at 4 months. He looks so much like our Holly, whose pictures...
And Tiesto is AebAg or AebAa? Anyway to me he doesn't look like badgerface in any of the photos Jostein ... farm, they are in the folder "Navajo-Churro Sheep -...
Hi Gail: Has the dam produced any other lambs? I have something similar to this, but in my Shetland x BFL crossbreds. The "darkest" of these have just the...
So, do these breeds have non-English blues, such as we have in our churro flock? Penny “The man seeking justice must do justice; he who wants liberty must...
Hi Linda No, this is Myrtle's first lamb. I really don't believe that Myra is English Blue as she is still coal black with absolutely no signs of changing...
Hi Gail: Yes, I can see the connection to lateral stripes, that is the closest to a match in the pictures that I have. Intriguing! Best regards, Linda W....
Hi Penny: Shetlands have a number of agouti patterns with a great degree of variation. WRT non English blue, I am assuming that looks like the Blue Texels, is...
Hi Linda, I haven't found any Aeb reported in any of the N Short tails during my research into the Gotland foundation breeds. I have been assuming that the ...
Hmmm, so I quick checked several of the photo albums and only saw one sheep that looks like what I recognize as English blue - Victoria in the Navajo-Churro...
Hi Linda, Thanks for writing. We are very interested in the blue and look forward to breeding more, if possible, though I believe from what I have heard here...
Penny, When you say you are interested in breeding for blue N-C. Do you mean the NSP blue, or English Blue. They are different. Now that owners of N-C sheep...
Hi Laurelen, I think maybe I told you before that Connie sold me three NSP blue sheep, so those are the ones we are breeding. There is another new breeder in...
Hi To me "blue" is a difficult connotation, as I think different breeders or breeds have quite different genetics lumped together in "blue". As an example, in...
Ok, so we see things in a different way, I find a lot of Aeb both in the Files ond Photos. I don't know where you have found that Gotland information, but the ...
Hi Franna, Please would you look at my BFL crosses and see if you think they're true to the Aeb I also have (in the same lamb crop and pictured in my album...
I am sooo identifying with Josteins comments. according to the ouessant breed society of france this little fella has to be a cross he can't be purebred wrong...
Jostein, I found the Spael folder, wasn't looking in Files before. Nice photos, very descriptive. re: the Gotland Foundation Ewes - in North America we're...
Are you saying that you got an AebA? out of AbAtxAtAa? Is that possible? No. But I think you have Aeb sheep. Jostein ... they're ... my ... and ... on ... ...
Penny, If you ever get a NSP Blue ram and breed to your NSP Blue girls, it will be very interesting to know what you get for lambs. It will only be with many ...
Sorry Jostein, English Blue can be hidden by other patterns. I have had my line for over 20 years, so what I am trying to say is I usually can predict if I am...
More answers. ... It is very hard for me to tell if Badgerface is covering the English Blue pattern. Sometimes it is hard to see it when it is with Black and...
Hi I think we are closer. So what you are saying is that your AbAtxAtAa yielding an Eng. blue shows that you have misinterpreted one of them, most likely the...
My particular NSP sheep don't seem to be as hearty or as fertile as the Brown Family I have or two I have from the San Luis Valley. I had only one male -- the...
Hi Franna, Thanks for taking the time to look at my album. They only have a few weeks left here before they all get shipped off to market. Sure wish there...
